Free mother software for mac

Some folks are unsure what application is frontmost (active) at a given moment (because on Mac OS X different applications windows can be interleaved, the "frontmost window" indication is not all that clear, you can close all windows and still be in an application, etc.).

My mother is one of those people, and telling her to look at the "bold word next to the Apple in the menu bar" doesnt help. So I wrote this application for her.

It tracks what application is frontmost and tiles the desktop with the icon of that application, thus giving a subliminal visual indication of what application is frontmost.

Free. Tiger only.

uControl is a keyboard remapper and more. Meaning, those useless keys can now be reused, remapped, or reduced.
uControl gives you the ability to take those useless keys, that youre certain would have been better fashioned as something else, and turn them into something useful.
It started out as a simple hack to remap the caps lock key to a control key but has since evolved into a fairly sophisticated means of not only remapping modifier keys, but gives your trackpad a virtual scroll wheel, or gives lefties a sensible mouse, or gives people with disabilities the ability to type with one hand. Note: the one-handed typing ability has been removed due to possible patent infringement.
Main features:
- Swaps your left and right mouse buttons. Contributed by Paul Guyot.
- Apply Settings to a Particular Keyboard since version 1.3.0
- You can choose what keyboard you want a modifier mapping applied to. This is especially useful for external keyboards made for windows boxes that have the Option and Command key swapped (or alt and Windows keys in PC-speak).
- Scroll Wheel Emulation since version 1.2.0
- Gives your track pad, or mouse, a virtual scroll wheel. Hold down the key(s) of your choice, and your track pad instantly becomes a scroll wheel not just for vertical scroll bars, but horizontal ones as well. Use it once and youre hooked. Generously contributed by Alex Harper.
- Real Function Keys since version 1.0.7
- Removes the need to hold down the fn key to access the function keys (useful on laptops). The implementation of this feature was completely redone by Alex Harper in 1.3.5, and it works much, much better than before. It now uses the same method that OS 9 used. Also, many thanks to the Linux PPC folks, Jimi X and Matthias Grim, who discovered how to do the actual ADB muckery that was required.
- Power Delete since version 1.0.7
- Turns shift delete into a forward delete key. Generously contributed by Graham Bakay. (It should also be noted that fn-delete will give you forward delete.)
- Remap Caps Lock to Control since version 1.0.1
- The feature that started it all, and inspired this rant, "Tired of hitting all the wrong modifier keys on your laptop to get that simple control sequence? Are you forced to drag a keyboard around with you that has the control key in the right place? The place that Apple mistakenly put the caps lock key. Take control back! uControl maps your control key to its rightfully intended place on your laptops keyboard; the place thats currently occupied by the oft-unused caps lock key." (Actually as of version 1.0.7 you can remap caps lock to any modifier key.)
- Twerq since version 1.0.1
- Mirrors the key map by holding down the space bar. This is an accessibility feature I added for my mother who has a little trouble with her left hand. It makes one handed typing much easier. (Made available within uControl in version 1.0.7, was previously a separate hack.) Note: this feature has been removed due to possible patent infringement.
Enhancements:
- Updated the installer to work with Mac OS 10.3.8. Many thanks to Aaron Botsis for providing a patch that worked for some. And special thanks to Ingo Paschke whose patch seems to be working for all.

CoolLocalizer 1.1.2 comes to you as a novel lightweight image analysis software for confocal microscopy, which targets at all scientists doing confocal microscopy in academia as well as in industry. The program performs predominantly Co-localization analysis (hence the name CoolLocalizer) but also other tasks.

It features two-click generation of image montages for publication, presentation, and documentation of image data (usually a tedious procedure in Photoshop). CoolLocalizer differs from all other applications in many ways:

• It is the first to run on Macintosh. Labs are generally mixed-platform environments, but scientists often prefer Macs.
• It is smaller and stand-alone, no need for a "mother-ship" application or extra modules
• It is much easier to learn and use.
• Interface designed by scientists doing microscopy to be as easy and "few-click" as possible.
• The price. Traditional applications are more than ten times more expensive!

Traditional software are typically installed on only one workstation per research department. Because of the pricing and its ease of use, every scientists can run their own copy of CL.

Requirements:

• Mac OS X

Chrysalis-A 1.04 is known as a new and interesting game for you to join. Ever since a group of six elders saved humanity from self-destruction, there's been rumors as to where the Elders came from. Legend has it that the Elders descended from a place called The Glass City which is located somewhere in the clouds high above. The city was created by Mother Nature herself to raise future defenders of the planet and the human race. The legend of the Glass City went unchallenged for centuries until a historian/scientist name Dr.

Ordonez set up an experiment in Peru to replicate the environment which could have possibly created the Elders. CHRYSALIS-A You take the role as an assistant to Dr. Ordonez. He has created Chrysalis-A, a 100ml glass chamber with precise control of its internal temperature. After filling Chrysalis-A with plants and soil gathered from the location where the Elders were first spotted, you fired up the chamber. In doing so, Chrysalis-A started a process that if managed properly will recreate the Elders from just plants and dust!

The ultimate revolution in evolution awaits! THE GAME Chrysalis is a real-time causal pace evolution widget/game. You start with nothing but plants and dirt. By figuring out the right temperature that promotes growth/evolution you must guide an unknown species through several stages of evolution until it hopefully evolve into the Elders.

There are two ways to control the temperature inside Chrysalis-A. A blue value introduces chilled water into the chamber which lowers the temperature over time. A red valve turns on the gas heater which raises the temperature over time. Fumes and excess water are automatically removed from the chamber, so don't worry about it.

BlackenedPixels is a very nice variation of the "basic black" screensaver concept. Not only does it turn your screen black, but it also powers down all the displays to keep the room cool and dark.

G5 owners will appreciate this one even more, considering the heat their hardware already brings down on them. Unless they live in Canada, Alaska or great mother Russia.

We wanted it, and we figured you might too. Developed by our underpaid team of former soviet mathematics professors in Moscow.
