Edgies 1.1 (Mac OS X)
This is a concept with a lot of merit... ![]()

.. but the implementation is very buggy at this point. So buggy it ought to be labeled beta. Before it does anything (show a tab, hide a tab, create a tab, whatever), all the little tabs briefly hop up in the air. It's like having mexican jumping beans on your desktop. Except for every once in a while, the tabs hop up and then just stay there. Then it's like having decapitated mexican jumping beans on your desktop. I have been messing with the preferences for about an hour trying to get it to stop these antics to no avail. Deleted the plist to start over, but this behavior is present out of the box on my system, including on a vanilla user account. I would keep trying, but I don't want to start smoking again.

I have been wishing for this for a long time. Works great. Thank you. [alert admin]

Path Finder 4.0 (Mac OS X)
I confess that I was expecting to be impressed by the new features of Path Finder 4 but disappointed by the performance. I am, in fact, dazzled by the new features, and blown away by the performance: it is shockingly fast. Path Finder 4 finally gives the powerful new technologies of Tiger an elegant interface that makes sense. Spotlight, for example, at last works the way it should have in the first place. Apple should be more grateful than embarrassed. Now that I have Path Finder 4, I love Tiger. [alert admin]

LaCie LightScribe Labeler 1.0.2 (Mac OS X)
To be honest, the software feels a bit clunky in some respects, but once you get the hang of it, it works fine. The technology as a whole (software + discs + burner) is exceedingly cool. Don't think I'm going to be very productive today... ;) [alert admin]

Webstractor 1.5.1 (Mac OS X)
I thought this software was overpriced until I realized I could take an article from the Onion and make it look like it came from the New York Times. [alert admin]

Mail.appetizer 1.1b (Mac OS X)
This works flawlessly, unlike many other Mail.app enhancements, which for some reason tend to be quite buggy and disappointing. I have only a single feature request, which is to be able to mark new mail as junk. Many thanks to the author for making this wonderful program available. [alert admin]

Apple Bluetooth firmware 1.2.0 (Mac OS X)
I was skeptical, but after applying this update to my Powerbook G4 1.5 GHz with Bluetooth 1.1, the "Allow bluetooth devices to wake this computer from sleep" option is no longer grayed out and I am able to wake my computer up with my Apple bluetooth keyboard. The keyboard continues to work without problems. Hotsyncing my Palm T4 still works. Tranferring files from a Nokia 6310i and from a Motorola V3 Razr also both still work. [alert admin]

Nicotine 1.0 (Mac OS X)
I am very grateful to the developer for packaging this for OS X. I spent hours trying to compile nicotine and failed. I will probably be switching to the native OS X client ssX when it becomes as robust as nicotine, but I wanted to take this opportunity to say "Thank you." [alert admin]

MailEnhancer 1.11 (Mac OS X)
It would be nice if it were possible for the dock icon count to be updated for a user-selectable subset of mailboxes. [alert admin]

I second the motion. I had just been thinking the same thing.

For the record, ctrl-a, ctrl-e, ctrl-b, ctrl-f, ctrl-k, and ctrl-y work in 1.1b17 (these are the same ones that seem to work in Cocoa applications in general). ctrl-u and ctrl-w do not work in Cocoa applications generally and in TextMate they do not work in Emacs fashion but are mapped to other functions: ctrl-w selects the current word and ctrl-u makes the current word all uppercase. These are the only Emacs key bindings…

Converts videos for iTunes 6, too
Thank you for posting this review. All reviews should be so helpful. Seeing "BATCH ENCODES" brought a smile to my face, since I was wishing only yesterday that it did this. I dragged my entire music video collection to iTunes 6 the other day and it could handle all the files except for the ones with extension m2v. These are MPEG2 muxed files (whatever those are). I tried converting them with Quicktime…

Not only do you not know how to spell "insidious," you obviously do not know what is means.

I second the request to be able to see the wget command issued. Perhaps, however, we already have that in the log under WGET SETTINGS:Arguments:.

It says it's a wrapper for tar. What did you think it was going to do?
