StoryParker for InDesign 1.0.7
StoryParker for InDesign - Plug-in helps you cope with cluttered pages more>>
Every page item can be temporarily parked - meaning you can put it aside, somewhere on the pasteboard, and quickly move it back to exactly where it came from some time later.
Linked text boxes that contain a long story can also be parked all together. The idea is to help you get one or more page items out of the way quickly, for example because you want to reach something thats underneath. Later on, you can easily move the page items back to their exact original position with a single click.
The neat thing is that parked page items remember where they came from - you can unpark them, which causes them to fly back to the exact location they had before you parked them.
Parked items are put on the pasteboard, and can be moved around freely from there - any movement while they are parked is ignored and forgotten the instant you unpark them.

Brainstorm Lite - brainstorming tool that forces you to follow some core brainstorming rules more>>
The software tracks brainstorming time and prohibits the user from entering new ideas after the time is up. This is used to inspire creativity because everyone knows how much time is left to generate new ideas and that there remains no extra time.
Since suspending from judgments is the key to success of your brainstorming session, the Brainstorm Lite prevents deleting or even editing any ideas while session is going. This allows even the random ideas pass to analysis stage at which they often appear to be the best.
However once the session is finished, the application transforms into simple text editor, meant for spellchecking or simple editing.
Brainstorm Lite is compatible with most of mind mapping or outlining software via OPML format. Also it allows saving the results in TXT and RTF to work over them in text editor.
Cave Story 0.0.7
Cave Story - side-scrolling platformer game more>>
Cave Story is really one of those games that can be considered a masterpiece of game design. There are so many wonderful and classic gaming elements, that I cannot even begin to describe just one quality well enough to say It is for this one reason alone that Cave Story is a great game. There is just so much effort, originality and ingenuity behind this game and it really shows more and more as you play through it.
The developer, Pixel spent five years making this game as fun and as great as it is by adding solid controls, smooth gameplay, a great cast of characters and dialogue, an interesting plot, good music and beautiful old-school 2-D artwork.
And on top of all this added multiple endings, several boss battles, tons of items to collect, all kinds of added secret bonuses and special challenges, various and considerably different methods of playing through the game depending on your actions, competition ranking features and an extremely high replay value. For a freeware game it is fairly lengthy too.
Cave Story is by far the best freeware game I have ever had the honor of playing through and certainly one of the best games Ive played.
The gameplay plays like a combination of various NES/Famicom games. Some that come to mind are Metroid, Castlevania, Megaman, Blaster Master and Monster Mash. Pixels art style and character design and boss battles are very reminiscent of Treasure games, like Gunstar Heroes, which happens to be one of my personal favorite games of all time.
So if you are a fan of any of these titles, then you are in for a real treat. It was a wonderful and addicting experience playing through it and I hope anyone reading this who has not already played this game will give it a shot.
You surely wont be disappointed. It reminded me of why I enjoy playing videogames.

Once you provide the web page address of the beginning of the story (the first chapter always works, and I try to support index pages as well), then the software will download each chapter in the background, saving the files into a temporary folder created on your desktop. While this is going on you can do anything else you want. Once the software has downloaded all of the chapters, it combines all of the them together into your preference of a html or text file. Finally it takes that compiled document and puts it in a folder called "New Stories" on your desktop.

- Now correctly displays smart quotes, apostrophes, etc., on FanFiction.net
- Now displays the correct story title in Stanza

Lightning Brain StoryParker for InDesign 1.0.7 is created as a useful plug-in which aims at helping you cope with cluttered pages. It adds a number of context menus to various page items
Every page item can be temporarily 'parked' - meaning: you can put it aside, somewhere on the pasteboard, and quickly move it back to exactly where it came from some time later.
Stories spread over linked text boxes can also be parked all together.
The idea is to help you get one or more page items out of the way quickly, for example because you want to reach something that's underneath. Later on, you can move the page items back to their exact original position with a single click.
The neat thing is that parked page items 'remember' where they came from - you can 'unpark' them, which causes them to fly back to the exact location they had before you parked them.
Parked items are put on the pasteboard, and can be moved around freely from there - any movement while they are parked is ignored and forgotten the instant you unpark them.
There is a neat extra trick for text boxes: the context menu you get by right-clicking or control-clicking a text box will also allow you to park the whole story.
All text boxes that contain parts of the same 'text flow' or story are parked together.
Requirements:
- InDesign CS, CS2 or CS3
