Free regular intervals software for mac

The Idle Interval scripting addition enables you to develop more responsive AppleScript Studio applications. It gives you precise control of the idle interval, the time interval between invocations of your idle handler.
As an AppleScript Studio developer, you may have tried using an idle handler, and wished it had a more flexible scripting interface. Currently, the only way to set the idle interval is to return a new value from the idle handler. This can cause both inefficiency and inflexibility.
For example, if your idle handler returns 60, you can not change the idle interval for the next 60 seconds. To maintain efficiency without sacrificing responsiveness, your idle handler must return a compromise value, too short for some situations and too long for others.
Also, you can not get or set the idle interval from other handlers in your own script, or from other scripts outside your application. This limits the power and flexibility of process flow control scripts.
Also, you can not set the idle interval using fractions of seconds. Some applications would benefit with an idle interval less than one second, or between one and two seconds. Other applications may need irregularly but precisely scheduled, or event-driven, invocations.
The Idle Interval scripting addition solves these problems. It provides scriptable timing options for each AppleScript Studio application: reference interval, idle interval, idle frequency, next idle interval, next idle date, notification handler, and modify permission.
Main features:
- Get and set the timing options any time, from any handler in your script, and even from scripts outside your application.
- Set the idle interval, idle frequency, and next idle interval using fractions of a second, or disable your idle handler indefinitely by setting the idle interval to zero.
- Schedule your idle handler as a one-shot timer, invoked once at an arbitrary date and time.
- Measure time intervals shorter than a second using the reference interval.
- Receive notification whenever anyone modifies the timing options.
- Restrict access to the timing options, so only you can change them.
- Load the scripting addition from inside your application, to ensure compatibility and to avoid modifying the host system.
Enhancements:
- Universal Binary built with Xcode 2.4.1.

Smile is a working environment which offers both a set of production technologies and a natural fashion of having them work together so that you produce faster and better, you automate frequent tasks and you control complex operations.
Main features:
- an AppleScript editor with many scripting helpers, and unique AppleScript Terminal windows,
- an editor of scripted interfaces,
- a text editor for ASCII and Unicode, with a search-and-replace tool supporting Regular Expressions,
- a XML editor,
- a Regular Expression engine,
- a XML and p-list engine,
- a 2D graphic engine, where you program vectorial PDF graphics by script,
- commands for driving industrial interfaces: RS232 serial communication, digital I/O, LED display.
Smile ships with an impressive set of additional tools of various kinds, for instance a backup utility. Smile is totally scriptable, attachable (each object can own a script), and tailored (with scripts you can customize the interface to any extent.)
Enhancements:
- SmileLab now ships as universal binary, in other words it runs natively on PPC as well as on Intel machines.
- You can now make HTML interfaces. Users view the interface either in their favorite browser, or in Smile, in a specific (and scriptable) kind of window.
- The regular expressions commands that work on Unicode text now support several expressions syntaxes.
- XML engine enhancements: new XML commands, better handling of pools of documents, new plist commands.
- You can now automate PDF document printing.
- the release notes list more than 50 new features, minor enhancements or bug fixes.

RegexTester is a very useful utility designed to validate one or more strings against a regular expression.
It is using the NSPredicate regular expression mechanism.

Usage
After launching RegexTester you’ll see two input fields.
The first one is for the regular expression you want to use for the validation.
The second fields is for the string you want to validate.

Entered values can be saved by clicking on the Save-Button. Saved values persist after you closed the application and can be erased by clicking Clear Regular Expressions and Clear Stings to Test respectively in the File-menu.

The validation process takes place every time you change either the regular expression or the string.

The traffic light indicators at the bottom of the application show you the current status of the validation. The left one shows you if the current selected string matches the selected regular expression.

The right indicator switches to green if all saved strings are matched by the selected regular expression.

Finder Flags is a CodeWarrior plugin which allows you to set the Finder flags of the build output. Both regular Finder flags (invisible, locked, bundle, etc) and extended Finder flags (routing, badge, etc) are supported. Supports CodeWarrior Pro 3 and newer.
Enhancements:
- Added Mac OS X support.

Designed to handle squash matches, including counting points and games (traditional, PARS, or PARS9 methods), timing warmup and game intervals, managing the draw, and printing results or saving them to HTML.

Shell Watcher Widget displays the output of any shell command you can think of, updated at preset intervals.
Type in any shell command that outputs text and youre good to go. Change the interval at which the command is to be run, change the colors and resize the widget to fit your needs.
Shell Watcher can be used to monitor your server logs (by using SSH with key authentication you can even grab info from any command on a server somewhere on the internet), to display your current disk usage, display who is currently logged into your computer and so on. Virtually the list is endless.

Enhancements
- A new history menu contains the last ten used commands so you don?t have to retype them.
- Fixed a bug where shell output containing characters with special meaning in HTML would not be displayed.
- Many more enhancements.

Requirements:
PowerPC, MacOS 8.1 or later.

Enhancements:
Version 1.1.1 adds the following:

• Supports the QuickTime Music Architecture, for access to a multitude of synthesized instruments.
• Allows customized quizzing of the particular scales you are interested in.
• For added difficulty, the interval tonic, consonance, and direction may be randomized.
