Diamond 3.4.1

In addition to its own format/extension of .dmd, Diamond reads and writes files in the RTF, RTFD, Text, and MS DOC formats (and more formats are on the way) whether created by Diamond or by other applications, and handles them as any document-based application should, including support for printing, dragging and dropping text, track-pad scrolling, and advanced Apple features such as Expos?, Spotlight, Spaces, and others (for convenience, Diamonds own document format is identical in functionality to RTFD, and can also save text documents with extension.tex for the convenience of those working with the TeX or LaTeX typsetting systems).

Diamond offers complete support for the advanced text & font handling capabilities of Mac OS X, so if you are familiar with editing and styling text in any of the many applications that also implement it (such as TextEdit, Apple Pages, and many others) you will be right at home. Where it differs is in the flexibility of its window and desktop display, allowing you to configure your own unique workspaces tailored to the projects at hand, and ? most significantly ? in the way in which widows scroll horizontally, from column to column, rather than vertically through the entire text of a document. In this behavior it most resembles Amar Sagoos Tofu, a popular multicolumn text reader but unlike Tofu, Diamond is, as mentioned, a full-featured Rich Text editor as well.

Enhancements:

• Made some changes to keyboard shortcuts, including adding one to toggle the ruler display; restored the Apple Text System styles sheets to the ruler (additional tutorials regarding styles sheets will be forthcoming).
• Additional tweaks and corrections per user advice (additional features since 3.3 listed on website); faster, better code, reduced application file size by 200K (more optimizations to come...).

Requirements:

• Mac OS X 10.5 or later (version for 10.4 Tiger available at website)
