audiospectrum 1.2

audiospectrum 1.2


audiospectrum - Screensaver reacts to ambient sound. (was audioparticle, audioparticolor) more>>
audiospectrum is a very simple quartz screensaver that reacts to ambient audio. Its simple as possible to keep processor load and heat minimal. This is the good one, in my opinion, the screenshot really doesnt do it justice.
Click the More Information link on this page for all the other audio-based quartz screensavers Ive made. I may try to combine some of these, but keeping CPU use low is the priority.
To use these create (if it doesnt already exist) a folder called "Screen Savers" in your ~/Library folder and place the file there. It will then be available in ScreenSavers preference pane.
Note: If you are using a PowerMac or other computer without a built in microphone, you need to either adjust your default input in Sound Preference Pane so the screensaver can "hear" it, or email me or leave a comment if that doesnt work, so I can provide a version that monitors the line in. (I dont have a computer like this to test it on.)
Enhancements:
- I figured out how to separate the audio spectrum, so there is a low, mid, and high band! The color of each band depends on the relative strengths of each band so its kinda interesting actually, and its quite responsive.

PhotoHTML 1.0

PhotoHTML 1.0


PhotoHTML is a plugin for Photoshop that converts any image to an HTML table more>>
PhotoHTML is a very simple free Macintosh plugin for Photoshop that converts any image to an HTML table. Each pixel in the image becomes a 1 x 1 pixel colored cell in the table. There is not any interface beyond a put file dialog to name and place the generated output HTML file.
Main features:
- It makes a great color code generator. Take a swatch of colors, run PhotoHTML and youve got ready to paste in table cell attributes. It is really useful for this, and worth having for the occasional need.
- If you are absolutely serious about no one downloading images off your Web page and dont care if it loads like a sedated slug, PhotoHTML is the answer. Short of writing a custom app, which would reassemble an actual image from table cells and background colors, no one will find a use for your images. (They can still take a screen shot, though, so its just not worth in our opinion.)
- If you must have true 24 bit lossless color images that will display in any browser back to Netscape 2.0, PhotoHTML is the way to go. The only other way to do that is use a PNG image in very new browsers, which has little backwards compatibility. You dont likely need lossless images enough to do either one of the above, though. JPEGs are your friend.
- If you want the smallest transparent spacer gif possible, just run PhotoHTML once and you will have it. It auto-generates a 43 byte GIF file named "x.gif", which is the smallest you can get. It is not possible to make a transparent GIF any smaller with anything.

Cynthiune 0.9.5

Cynthiune 0.9.5


Cynthiune is a free software and romantic music player for GNUstep and Mac OS X more>>
Cynthiune is a free software and romantic music player for GNUstep and Mac OS X. Cynthiune can play Ogg and MP3 files.
For the moment, it looks pretty much like XMMS, Winamp and similar software. Even though it has far less features than those, the essential components of a usable and user-friendly program are there in my opinion.
From a programmatic point-of-view, I have decided to write a program that is released only when considered bug-free. The free software community lacks, IMnsHO, a sense of quality that makes its programs nearly useless to lambda users. Not only is it useless, but I think it also gives free software a bad reputation. The principle of freedom in "free software" is fundamental to me, but it has to be reachable not only by some sort of geeky elite. There is no point in telling users that since they have the freedom to enhance those programs, they must fix them if they want to use them. Releasing a program with too many bugs is of no use and is likely not to interest other fellow programmers in the community either.
On the other hand, Apple has published an interesting program called "iTunes". Of course, it is not free software but it does implement interesting ideas that I would like to include in Cynthiune. For example: CD burning, complete playlist management, etc... Personally I find its user interface to be not as user-friendly as it could be. My plan is thus to take advantage of my own programming skills and sense of aesthetics (and ergonomy) to try to write something a little bit different, inspired both by XMMS/Winamp and iTunes. Cynthiune is thus currently very basic but its core design is starting to be extensible enough that it will not be too much trouble to enhance it.
Enhancements:
- Major feature enhancements.

Apples to Oranges - Simple unit converter more>>
Apples to Oranges is a simple and intuitive unit converter. Includes scientific notation, easy keyboard navigation, and standard unit conversions for length, mass, time, temperature, area, volume, velocity, acceleration, force, pressure, density, energy, and power.
This application was my introduction to Objective-C, Cococa, and Mac OS X development. Yes, it is simple and does not offer any features that cannot be found in other applications. However it does what it says it should do, and with style (in my humble/biased opinion). Id be greatly appreciative of any feedback, positive or otherwise.
Enhancements:
- Allows input of simple fractions (numerator/denominator)
- Retains user settings, window positions, etc. between launches.
- Restricts user input to legitimate values.
- Support for Mac OS X 10.1 through 10.3 (Panther).

Toggler 1.0

Toggler 1.0


Toggler - Toggles away/available for iChat & Skype more>>
I have iChat and Skype. Contrary to my wifes opinion, I do -not- spend "every waking moment at the computer." Therefore, I wanted a way to toggle my availability in iChat and Skype without having to visit a bunch of menus to do it. So I wrote a little Applescript that, when run, sets your state in both to "away" if youre currently available; or to "available" if youre currently away.

As of the time of this release, Skype does not give feedback about anything to Applescript, including its status, so instead, the script looks at iChat to see what the status is.

If the iChat status is "available" then it sends commands to both iChat and Skype to set your status as "away."

If the iChat status is "away" then it assumes that both are away, and sets them both to "available."

Because of this limitation in Skype, it is not currently possible to do a toggle for Skype only... AFAIK... so -please- dont ask.

Yes: that means that if you have only Skype and/or run it but not iChat, this script will not work. You have to have iChat running for this script to work.

My suggested use for the file is to hook it up to a keystroke, or other button-press, using QuicKeys or whatever other method you like. Ive got mine hooked to a spare trackball button. Press once to go offline; press again to go online. Makes life a little more simple anyway...

Headings Calculator 1.1


Headings Calculator - Determine magnetic headings in 45 degree increments more>>
Headings Calculator displays associated magnetic headings (45, 90, 135, 180, 225, 270, 315 and 360 degrees) based on user input.

I originally created this application for use while flying X-Plane (the worlds FINEST flight simulator for Mac OS and Windows).

This applications was created using RealBasic 2006 which, in my humble and inexperienced opinion, is the best rapid development environment for Mac OS.

IMSafer 1.0

IMSafer 1.0


IMSafer monitors the instant messenger conversations of your children more>>
It doesnt matter if your child logs on at home, at school, at the library or a friends house. If that computer is protected by IMSafer, your child is protected, and you, and only you, will receive notifications about their IM activity.

IMSafer also automatically will detect any new screen names your child decides to use, so you dont have to worry about them signing up for a new one without you knowing about it. IMSafer knows.

Thanks to smart uses of technology, the IMSafer Protection System monitors your childrens IM conversations constantly scanning for potentially dangerous situations, and notifies you only when a potentially dangerous situation arises.

The IMSafer Protection System will contact you via email when we detect a potentially dangerous IM conversation. Our application shows you excerpts of your childs conversation to give you meaning and context to the notifications you received.

All conversations are analyzed by the IMSafer Protection System for patterns and language which are known to be indicative of potentially dangerous situations. The IMSafer team has worked with law enforcement officials to identify and target the types of content about which they say parents should be the most concerned. The rules being used by the IMSafer Protection System are always being fine tuned and updated.

Once you have seen the notification and understand what the issue is, its up to you to decide how to proceed with your child. You will have a very good understanding of what happened in the conversation, and should talk with your child to help provide guidance.

Just as with the offline world, knowing who your kids online friends are is very important, knowing as much as you can about the people who are talking to your child online is very important. IMSafer allows parents to participate in the community by sharing their opinion about the appropriateness level of any person speaking with their own child.

The more parents who participate, the better IMSafer is for you because this feedback allows for proactive notifications when someone who is known in the IMSafer system is talking to your child. Providing feedback is completely anonymous, and requires only one mouse click.

MSafer monitors the instant messenger conversations of your children to help you balance protecting your children and respecting their privacy. The IMSafer service will only notify you when your child is engaged in a potentially dangerous conversation on IM.

At IMSafer, we have worked with law enforcement officials to learn how potential predators initiate, develop and maintain inappropriate online relationships with children. We are always working to fine tune and update our analysis engine.
1. Download IMSafer to the computer your children use by clicking the button below.
2. IMSafer will automatically detect and monitor your childs instant message and social networking activity.
3. IMSafer will notify you when your child is engaged in a potentially dangerous situation online.
