Cocoa Fortune 1.40
Cocoa Fortune - Unix utility, ported to OS X more>>
Many UNIX people run it as part of their login sequence so that they each morning are presented with a thought-worthy maxim to consider during the day.
Unfortunately, Apple has chosen to leave fortune out of the standard Mac OS X installation. That is why I chose to make this Cocoa wrapper for the command, so that other people than command-line freaks and programmers can enjoy the interesting comments of fortune.
I also added a few goodies, such as automatic refresh of the quote, and a user-friendly way to select the range of messages displayed.
Enhancements:
- The title bar can be removed
- The shadow can be removed
- The color of the text can be changed
- Enabled copying the current fortune without selecting the text
- Support for speech in Panther
- Can (re)generate .dat index files for fortune files, several at a time
- The fortune list management has been moved to a separate window
- Drag and drop reordering
- Add files by dragging them to the list
- Instead of using the traditional fortune program, fortunes can be retreived from the Internet host with tens of thousands of quotes, described on this page: http://www.update.uu.se/cookie.html
- Bug fixes and minor tweaks:
- Leak that led to resource starvation (file handles) after some time
- Positioning (over/under the menu bar, belove the Dock)
- Minor redraw bug in preferences
- Made it easier to select fonts
- Window fits the text better, even for fortunes that lack a trailing newline
- The window can be locked to the corner of a secondary screen
- (fortune) Better randomization if called multiple times in a short time
- (fortune) Now uses the latest fortune version from the FreeBSD tree
- Added some command key shortcuts for various menu items
- Code cleanups.
Typeator 1.2
AppleScript sets type and creator codes. more>>
Repeat with each track 1.0
Repeat with each track - Repeat with each track then Computer shuts down for example more>>
The script counts the duration of the current track and wait with changing to the next track for this time. When the script has played the last track in iTunes, then the Finder gets the order to take the choosen action.
The script plays every track after the other, so you cant rewind or forward a track! The advantage to my other script "Wait for finishing playlist in iTunes" is that exactly after finishing the playlist the Computer shuts down and iTunes has not to get always the player state!
SeasonPassGetter 0.9
SeasonPassGetter - Automatically transfer Season Passes from TiVo to iTunes for use with FrontRow, iPod, or AppleTV more>>
There was a lot of interest in content for the iPod, so when a show is transferred to iTunes, SPG will initiate an iPod sync. Wake up in the morning and your shows are ready to go.
MacJanitor 1.3
MacJanitor is a freeware utility to run the systems daily, weekly, and monthly maintenance scripts more>>
MacJanitor provides a way to run system maintenance tasks at the click of a button.
The Unix subsystems on Mac OS X were originally written for machines that were typically never shut off. Mac OS X inherits this assumption in version 1.x, and has many system maintenance tasks that are scheduled to run between 3 am and 5 am. In addition, there are scripts designed to run weekly on weekends, and once a month in the middle of the night.
If these maintenance tasks are never run (such as on a laptop that is always shut off at night), many log files and system database will grow extremely large or fail to get backed up.
Laptop users could click the daily button every morning (or every few days), or office workers could click the weekly button on Mondays.
If youve been leaving your machine off at night without allowing the maintenance tasks to run for several weeks or more, the first time you run them using MacJanitor may take several minutes. Also, if your log files have grown extremely large and you are low on disk space, the tasks may have problems moving the files around and compressing them. After that, it typically takes less than a minute for each task.
The output of the task is displayed in the scrolling view in the bottom part of the window. If for some reason you feel the need, you may print the output of the system maintenance tasks (but why?...).
Enhancements:
- Built for Panther and higher (Tiger compatible).
- Uses the periodic tool instead of running the tasks directly.
The Outlaw Widget 1.0
The Outlaw Widget - Undoctored quotes from the 43rd president, George W. Bush more>>
My buddy Marc has a daily calendar of Bush quotes. Its quite the event as he reads the quote of the day to the gathered masses in the morning. I thought, hey, I could share this delightful experience with the world at large by creating a widget. So, If the DailyTao is not presenting you with enough befuddlement on your desktop, I now give you wSpeaka widget that gives you a daily quote from our 43rd president,George W. Bush.
The Outlaw Widget
For some unknown reason, this widget is too hot to handle at some other download sites. One of them flat-out refuses to list it on their site. Another one listed it for about two hours and then took it down. Thats okay, no problem there. Showing actually undoctored quotes from the president, well thats getting too hot to handle. What a bunch of wusses!

If you are a PKer, you can fight other PKers in special maps. If you are not a PKer, then you can stay on the non PK maps, where you dont have to worry about being attacked by other players.
Major Features:
- Fully 3D isometric environment. As opposed to the 2D isometric games, you can turn the camera at any angle you want, on the Z axes (perpendicular to the ground), and see new details of the objects that were previously obscured.
- Day/Night/Morning/Evening. The day/night cycle has 6 hours. Morning starts at 0:00, and at 1:00 its full daylight. The evening starts at 3:00, and at 4:00 its full night. The light changes very smoothly, one a minute based enviroment table.
- Dynamic projective shadows. The shadows respect the sun position, so they move while the sun travels on the sky. In the morning, the shadows become more and more visible, while in the evening they fade out, having a very smooth transition. Shadows can be turned on/off, by the player, in case their machine cant handle them properly, at a decent frame rate.
- Lake water reflection. All the nearby objects, and the sky, are reflected in the water. Furthermore, the water moves a little, having very small waves, so all the reflected objects/sky are animated. Also, the color of the water changes, according to the time of the day. It is really nice to observe the lakes in the morning/evening.
- Custom colors. Each player can customize the colors & hair of their avatar.
- Multiple maps. There are many outside places to explore, and caves, dungeons, insides of buildings, etc.
- Different map sizes. The largest map has .768 square KMs. That is, 589824 SQM.
- Trade ability. Players are able to trade their items with others.
- Magic system. Implemented, but still under development.
- Fighting! Players are able to fight with eachother (on PK maps) and with various animals, in the wilderness (or even in populated areas).
- Horses and support for running.
- A few new items.
- Improvements over the UI.
- Bug fixes.
- Some 2d, 3d and animation artwork improvements (bigger textures, some broken objects fixed, etc.)
- Some harvestable resources have been moved around a little.
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
