GoogleFill 1.2
GoogleFill - Fill in addresses based on phone number in Addressbook more>>
What does this do?
Its actually harder to explain than to actually show it....
I own a Treo 650 cell phone... Great phone and one of the features it has is when you dial a number not in the address book it says "Do you want to add this number?"
So I end up with lots of numbers in my cell phone address book without any corresponding information (e.g. who it is, where they are from, etc.). GoogleFill is my solution to the problem.
Say I got a call from 202-456-1111 and I said allowed the phone to add it to its address book. The next time I synced up with my mac the number would show up without any details... To use it simple click on the phone number.
It will use google to try to find a name and Address for the phone number listed. If its succesful it will tell you (if not it should also tell you it couldnt). In this case we are in luck! Now I remember, this is when George W called me to ask me a favor!
FontForge 20090408
Outline font editor that lets you create or edit your own fonts more>> Outline font editor that lets you create or edit your own fonts
FontForge is a tool designed as an outline font editor that lets you create your own postscript, truetype, opentype, cid-keyed, multi-master, cff, svg and bitmap (bdf, FON, NFNT) fonts, or edit existing ones.
Also lets you convert one format to another. FontForge has support for many macintosh font formats.
FontForges user interface has been localized for: (English), Russian, Japanese, French, Italian, Simplified Chinese, German, Polish, Spanish, Vietnamese, Greek.
Enhancements
- Extensive patch by Alexey Kryukov to support composites (references) in bitmap fonts.
- Copy/Paste bitmap references
- Output into sfnts
- sfd extension
- Fix them up so that bitmap formats which dont support them have them unlinked
- Support for the JSTF table (sfd extension), new dialog Element->Other info->Justification.
Add a set of new python functions for manipulating CID keyed fonts:
- cidConvertTo(registry,ordering,supplement)
- cidConvertByCmap(filename)
- cidFlatten()
- cidFlattenByCmap(filename)
- cidInsertBlankSubFont()
- cidRemoveSubFont()
- Add support for reading/writing version 1.8 of Adobes feature file format (while, I hope, retaining the ability to read version 1.6). Fix a number of bugs in parsing feature files.
- The new format is considerably better than the old and can now be used to express almost all of OpenType.
- ability to name anchors and value records and use them later.
- contourpoints used to be expressed as "" and are now expressed as "contourpoint 2" (no brokets). Adobe does not mention this in the changelog. [Incompatible change]
- It is now possible to specify a GDEF mark attachment class in the lookupflags statement.
- The syntax for mark to base/ligature/mark lookups is completely different. [Incompatible change]
- The syntax for contextual lookups has been extended to allow them to reference lookups by name. [FontForge has always done this. When I suggested to Adobe that they follow suit they said they would not. They have now followed suit but have used an incompatible syntax to accomplish the same ends. So this is an Incompatible change for FontForge]
- The syntax for contextual lookups has been extended to allow for the new mark lookups.
- It is now possible to specify a reverse chaining substitution lookup.
- It is now possible to specify descriptive names for the ss00-ss99 features. FontForge doesnt support this but will parse and ignore it
- Last release Werner asked me to put in checks for glyphs that exceded various limits in the font (glyphs outside the bounding box, glyphs with advance widths bigger than the max, etc.) The problem is that erroneous fonts often have thousands of these errors, so only report once -- unless they turn on fontlint.
- Fix several problems with simplifying quadratic splines.
- Could still get control points pointing diametrically opposite their desired position when converting cubics to quadratics (happened when we could not find a good solution by subdividing the spline and had to try another approach).
- AddExtrema could go into an infinite loop.
- Barry points out that when converting something to a CID font through a CMAP the last glyph in the encoding will be lost.
- Some inconsistancies in ff python docs and reality.
- The regen bitmaps dlg sometimes did not use freetype for all glyphs.
- Metrics view had problems with cid fonts.
- FontForge was supposed to check that the compile time (include file) freetype library version number matched the installed version number. But it didnt. Only matters in the debugger, but is important there.
- Autoinstructor: fixed a hang reported by Andrey V. Panov.
Autoinstructor: patch from Alexey:
- More tweaking to diagonal stems.
- Added support to horizontal ghost hints not tied to blue zones and vertical ghost hints.
- Barry points out a free which is sometimes inappropriate.
- The transform function from the fontview (and python) would transform images in the background layer multiple times -- once for each selected layer.
Autoinstructor: patch from Alexey:
- Fix an issue reported by Andrey V. Panov (counter control again).
- One type of dependent stems were positioned with wrong method; resulting in serifs pushed beyond their blue zones and other quirks.
- fix a crash bug in the math kern dlg.
- If a tt control point were on top of an on-curve point, then ff would ignore it. So when I read things in I moved it, slightly. But that didnt work, because the instructions would do the wrong thing with it, and if it were part of an interpolated sequence that info would be garbled. So only swallow control points if they dont have a nextcpindex.

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!

FoxyProxy for Thunderbird 2.13
FoxyProxy for Thunderbird provides you with a powerful and open-source advanced, yet free proxy management tool which can replace Firefoxs limited proxying capabilities. more>>
FoxyProxy for Thunderbird 2.13 provides you with a powerful and open-source advanced, yet free proxy management tool which can replace Firefox's limited proxying capabilities. It automatically switches an internet connection across one or more proxy servers based on URL and IP patterns.
Put simply, FoxyProxy automates the manual process of editing Firefox's Connection Settings dialog. Proxy server switching occurs based on the loading URL and the switching rules you define. Animated icons show you when a proxy is in use. Advanced logging shows you which proxies were used and when. QuickAdd makes it a snap to create new URL patterns on-the-fly. FoxyProxy is fully compatible with Portable Firefox, has better support for PAC files than Firefox itself, and is translated into more than 25 languages.
Major Features:
- Animated statusbar/toolbar icons show you when a proxy is in use
- Define multiple proxies
- Define which proxy to use (or none!) for arbitrary URLs using wildcards, regular expressions, whitelists, blacklists, and other conveniences
- No more wondering whether a URL loaded through a proxy or not: FoxyProxy optionally logs all URLs, including which proxy was used (if any), which pattern was matched, timestamps, etc.
- Out-of-the-box support for Tor with the unique Tor Wizard - zero configuration!
- Temporarily or permanently dedicate all URLs to go through a particular proxy
- Temporarily or permanently disable use of a proxy
- Automatically add blocked sites to a proxy and have them reload through the proxy
- Optional status bar information about which proxy is currently in use
- Complete Proxy Auto-Config (PAC) support
- Download a link using one of your defined proxies with a simple right-click (coming soon)
- Unobtrusive presence, stable execution, premier support
- Optionally force Firefox to perform DNS lookups through a SOCKS4a/5 server. Note that Firefox without FoxyProxy always performs DNS lookups through a SOCKS5 server if you've defined one. Only with FoxyProxy can you instruct Firefox to not use defined SOCKS5 servers for DNS lookups.
