Fractality 0.6 is considered to be one of the enhanced time-wasting applications, which brings a sophisticated toy and/or tool for creating polygonal fractals. Like geometric fractals, polygonal fractals are repetitive patterns following certain mathematical algorithms. Yet polygonal fractals are simpler, usually more symmetric, and often much more beautiful. They follow repeating patterns of simple algorithmic commands, and are essentially geometric shapes repeating on themselves over and over again.
Fractality is an original tool made to create and manipulate almost every aspect of these fractals. In Fractality, you have easy control over basic controls, like the number of iterations or the size of the fractal, and over precise iterative controls, like the angle of rotation per iteration, or the ability to cut off certain fingers. In addition, for beautification purposes, you have control over the color of the fractal, from beginning to end and even how fast the transition is.
For mathematical study or simple delight in not working, Fractality is the tool to use. The application utilizes easy-to-use controls in manipulating the fractals, and a templates menu for a place to start. Send them a copy of your favorite fractal!
Requirements:

AmascoreSearch 1.0
AmascoreSearch is designed to be a handy widget with which you may save your personal settings (product category, prefered store) and have multiple widgets with different settings running. more>>
AmascoreSearch 1.0 is designed to be a handy widget with which you may save your personal settings (product category, prefered store) and have multiple widgets with different settings running. Amascore is a robust scoring algorithm for book searches based on Amazon customer reviews. The scoring algorithm will present your search results in a better, more reliable ordering. The score is visualized together with a confidence interval which represents the reliability of the score.
In contrast to search engines like Google you should phrase your search such that it generates many (>20) results. The amascore server calculates a score for each book bases on a diversity of data, e.g. customer reviews, reliability of customer reviews, popularity, age (as an optional criteria). The amascore methodology is superior to the calculation of a simple mean customer review and results in much more reliable assessment of the book.
eMail Verifier 2.1
eMail Verifier is one of the most advantageous tools which can save time and money for businesses who send newsletters to their clients, nonprofit organizations who send bulletins to their members, or any person or business that needs to maintain a clean e-mail contact list. more>>
eMail Verifier 2.1 is one of the most advantageous tools which can save time and money for businesses who send newsletters to their clients, nonprofit organizations who send bulletins to their members, or any person or business that needs to maintain a clean e-mail contact list.
eMail Verifier works on the same algorithm as ISP mail systems do. Addresses for e-mail are extracted from a Domain Naming Server (DNS) and eMail Verifier tries to connect with SMTP-servers and simulates the sending of a message. It does not send the message though - eMail Verifier disconnects as soon as the mail server informs the program whether the address exists or not.
Email Verifier is a very effective piece of software that can verify over 10 e-mails per second . It can verify single e-mails or huge lists. (eMail Verifier is multithreaded, providing high speed verifying).
Requirements: Mac OS 9 - 9.2.2
Realizer for Soundjam 1.1
Realizer for Soundjam is a tool made to recreate the sizzling realism of the original recording. more>>
Realizer for Soundjam 1.1 is a tool made to recreate the sizzling realism of the original recording. MP3 files just don't sound as good as the original CD-quality recordings. The bass loses punch. High end lacks crispness and definition. The stereo spread collapses. Moreover, people are often listening on inexpensive, low-quality speakers. Unlike conventional equalizers and bass/treble controls, Realizer actually adds missing frequencies and synthesizes new harmonics to recreate the sizzling realism of the original recording. Realizer combines proprietary Bass Maximizer, Harmonic Exciter and Stereo Enhancement algorithms - the same processes found in Arboretum's professional Hyperprism products - in a simple-to-use interface designed for personal music enjoyment. Realizer is completely user-configurable and includes a number of factory settings designed to bring the most out of each musical style.
PrimTrack 0.2
PrimTrack is an application for a Graph Theory class to show Prims algorithm. more>>
PrimTrack 0.2 is an application for a Graph Theory class to show Prim's algorithm. Prim's algorithm, in a nutshell (no pardons to O'Reilly), is a method of finding a least cost minimum spanning tree on a weighted graph. The algorithm is actually rather easy to code; the challenge that I took up was to code the OpenGL and Cocoa interface for the program. Numerous java applets that step through Prim's algorithm are out there, but here's a fresh copy for your own desktop. Resizes well to large screens. It's considered an 0.1 release (first release), but I'm not planning any more work for it. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to email me, but I can't promise I'll have the time to put any more hard thought into it.

SmoothType 2.3.1
SmoothType is a rather praiseworthy program that brings Mac OS X style font smoothing to machines running System 7 through Mac OS 9. more>>
SmoothType 2.3.1 is a rather praiseworthy program that brings Mac OS X style font smoothing to machines running System 7 through Mac OS 9.
SmoothType also works in the Classic environment under Mac OS X, giving Classic applications text that looks just as good as in Carbon and Cocoa applications. Although the Appearance control panel already offers a limited form of font smoothing, SmoothType uses a different algorithm, and many people think SmoothType gives better results. The publisher suggests you try them both to see which you prefer. (If you switch on smoothing in the SmoothType control panel, it overrides the Appearance setting.) For best results with SmoothType, set your monitor resolution as high as it will go, but then increase the font sizes (or magnification) you use so that text on your screen is the same physical size as before.
SmoothType makes your screen look more like the printed page. Using a technique called anti-aliasing, SmoothType blurs the jagged edges of bitmap fonts with shades of gray, effectively doubling your screen resolution. This is similar to the technique used by some laser printers of varying the size of the dots to improve the printed image quality. This is also why text on a television screen, such as the credits for a TV program, can look so crisp from your couch, even though the resolution is really quite low.
With SmoothType, your fonts look on the screen just like they will when you print them, so you no longer need to look at large point sizes to get an idea of what the font really looks like. The effect can be quite striking, particularly when browsing web pages.
