Tux Paint is free software, released under an Open Source license. It has been translated into over 2 dozen languages, including Spanish, French, German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Greek and Hebrew. It also runs on Windows, Linux and BeOS.
Enhancements:
- Features nearly two dozen new Magic tools, as well as updates to old favorites. Many of these were developed by six students from around the globe during Google's 2008 Summer of Code program, under the mentorship of Tux Paint developers.

theLinker 4.0xr2
theLinker builds navigation links between pages within a folder hierarchy more>>
theLinker creates HTML links which mirror the file system hierarchy on your hard disk.
One of TheLinkers main strengths is that the "document" you edit to create your website is your web site. That is, you can build the site on your Macintosh, transfer it to a server somewhere, tweak files directly on the server if necessary, recover the site from the server, and continue building or modifying it on your computer. There isnt a separate design which you "publish" to the active web site, so there is no opportunity for them to get separated.
Enhancements:
- This version provides support for OS 10.2 and includes revisions to the sample site and documentation.
Republican Calendar 1.4
Republican Calendar - shows the date on the French Revolution Calendar and the Republican decimal time more>>
The images appearing on the widget were taken from the Republican Calendar of 1794 drawn by Louis-Philibert Debucourt, and they are on the public domain.
Using the 4/128 rule might not be the best choice from a historic point of view. But as it was explained before, since there are no clear rules, and this one is the most scientifically accurate and universal for our times, not depending on the equinox in Paris, nor in Gregorian rules, I think the 4/128 rule is a good choice.
Enhancements:
- Bug fixes

iTunes Repair 1.0 is a distinguished and tractable tool which can repair the nasty iTunes 4.9 Bug where iTunes recognizes music files as quicktime movies.
Many people have this problem. You may read more about that here: Apple Discussions, iPodHacks.com, MacFixItForums.com and MacOSXHints.com This tool does exactly what's explained at MacFixIt: It changes the creator code to 'hook' (that's the code for iTunes) and the type code to MPG3 for .mp3, M4A for .m4a and M4P for .m4p files.
No other files will be changed than these three extensions. Just drop some files and/or folders on it (or your complete music folder) and it will repair the type and creator codes of your files. After repairing your files there should be no problems with cover art and iPod transfer anymore. Any questions, email the author.
