Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

Recommend Product: NO

ok, downloaded this version in the hope they had actually fixed the font rendering

but no, just as fscked as the previous version

its a real shame the mac version is this useless, as the linux version is a real pleasure to use

save your bandwidth and do not bother downloading this one

Why the hate? - stoneman

This is freeware, opensource, and a solid application on other platforms. Why so much hate? If you're hoping it will get better, this is not the way to encourage development.

Why the hate? - themartian1

its not hate, its frustration, for an app thats so good on other platforms, the terrible state of the OSX port is not a good sign

especially when its been this bad through several releases
