- Opens URLs, directly or in your preferred helper application

~/library/preferences/widget-com.protagonist.widget.tailDash.plist
~/library/widgets/tailDash
then ensure that the new tailDash is put in:
~/library/widgets/tailDash
if the widget freezes
(a result of not having removed references to the old version of tailDash)
launch "activity monitor" and select the tailDash process from there and kill it.
or for you command line junkies:
/usr/bin/ps -aux | grep "tailDash"
will get you the pid then kill that.
Enhancements:
new options:
- user definable everything!
- you can set:
- the font
- the colour of the font
- the size of the font
- the opacity of the background
- the refresh rate
- the number of lines in the tail command

new advanced options

- 1. piping grep
- in the second field in the advanced options:

- (see this link for setting that up)
- set first field to:
- /usr/bin/ssh -l username hostname /usr/bin/tail
- and second field:
- /var/log/httpd/access_log
- if this gives you problems, make sure the command works for you in a regular shell:
- /usr/bin/ssh -l username hostname /usr/bin/tail -n10 /var/log/httpd/httpd_log.
PorDiBle 3.4
PorDiBle - Convert text documents to Palm .pdb files more>>
How Does It Work?
Simply drag one or more appropriate files onto PorDiBle and let it do its work. Note that the Palm OS uses a different file name than the actual name of your document. PorDiBle will query you for the name that will appear on the Palm
Double clicking on the PorDiBle application (as opposed to drag/drop) will allow you access to the preferences through the PorDiBle menu. You can specify where files are saved, if PorDiBle should quit when its finished converting, and if it should delete the original file in this window. These preferences default to the following: ask for save location, quit after processing is complete, and do not delete originals after conversion.
For text clippings youd like to convert, or text in your clipboard, there is now a "Quick Convert" window (cmd-L or in file menu). Simply paste your text or drag your text clipping into the window and then push convert.
Enhancements:
- PorDiBle now tries harder to convert non ascii characters to ascii. Its still not very smart but at least now smart quotes are converted to regular (non smart) quotes
- Pordible now prints a more intelligent error message if it cant convert from pdb->txt
LanOSD 1.0b4
Network on screen display. more>>
Its a way if displaying "passive" information that doesnt necessarily require all of your attention, doesnt need a specific log, but which is nice to know anyway if you happen to look in that direction.
LanOSD can also forms a network with its other LanOSD friends running in other machines close by, and decide which one(s) are supposed to display messages. Each machine has a priority, and the machines that have the highest priority at any given time displays the messages.
LanOSD is Scriptable, so you can integrate easily in all your scripts and procedures. Also provided is a command line tool that will work even if your procedure is in a cron job, for example.
Now, the "LAN" bit of the name is where it gets interesting. "LAN" is for "Local Area Network"; that is, your bedroom, office, floor, or Massively Carpeted Silicon Valley Headquarters.
LanOSD forms a little network with its other LanOSD friends running in other machines close by, and decide which one(s) are supposed to display messages. Each machine is assigned a priority, and the machines that have the highest priority at any given time displays the messages.
So for example put your main workstation to sleep, and the messages will start appearing on your laptop, which had nothing to do before that. Its all automagic too - you have nothing to reconfigure or change.
As a side effect, LanOSD also watches out for machines that are crashed or go offline and displays a notification on the current active display(s).
Enhancements:
- Added the "local only" parameter to prevent notifications being sent on the LAN.
- Fixed the -L parameter problem some people were having with the command line tool.
Text2cal 1.01
Text2cal - grab all the text at once from your email, select the important times and dates, insert the result directly into iCal more>>
Text2cal also makes guesses about the times and dates to make it even easier! (currently compatible only with US dates (month/day/year) - come back later for day/month/year compatibility!)
Title:
The focus starts in the event title field. Type in an event title. Alternately, you can select an appropriate title in the text and hit command-L. If nothing is selected, command-L just brings focus to this field.
Date & Time:
Tab to the date or time field and hit up and down arrow to select a date or time from the dates or times guessed from the email. The selected date or time will highlight in the text to show the context.
Potential dates will show up in red, times in green, while the menu is open. You may also click on dates or times in the text to select them. If a particular part of the text may be interpreted as a date or a time, your click may be mis-interpreted as the other type of data. In this case, click again and the data will get re-interpreted as the other type. Holding shift while pressing the command key associated with this field toggles through the options.
You may also enter a date or time directly - the program will try to fill in missing parts for ambiguous dates. For example, entering "7" into the date field will resolve to the "7th" of the current month, or the "7th of the next month if the current months 7th is in the past. Day words, such as "tuesday", "tue", "today", "tomorrow" are supported. The "Days in the future" indicator above the date field offers a quick way to make sure the date youve entered is roughly when it ought to be.
Calendars:
These calendars are taken from iCal. Thus this menu may be grayed out while iCal launches. Holding shift while pressing the command key associated with this field toggles through the options.
All Day:
Toggle this box to set the event to be all-day, instead of a specific time and duration. command-j toggles this field.
Duration:
Set the duration of the event. command-h selects the field, then up and down arrows scroll through the selections. times can also be typed in. command-shift-h toggles through the options.
Location:
This is optional, and allows you to enter the location of an event. If text2cal can guess a location from the text it lists it here. Other locations you have entered in the past are also listed in this menu. To select a location directly from the text, highlight it and press command-R. To cycle through the menu items press command-shift-R.
Show iCal after making event:
This options sets whether ical should come to front and show you the even you just made. This is recommended for the first few times this software is used, to make sure everything is working properly. command-s toggles this option.
Make Event:
Click this once all options are set, or press return. This option may be gray while iCal is starting up (just wait a few seconds!).
