iTrustGPG 0.9
iTrustGPG - Draw graphs of trust relationships in GPG/PGP keys more>>
Completly freeware.
whatPorts 1.1
whatPorts is a multi-threaded port scanner written in cocoa more>>
The scanner will cycle the ports on the host entered, and report back any ports that are open, attempting to match the port with its registered port database to determine the service that is most likely running on that port.
If the service can be determined, then it will inform you, otherwise, it will tell that it is unknown. Tests have shown that this scanner tends to run significantly faster than the scanner shipped with OS X, also, it goes one step beyond by telling you what service is most likely running on that port.
Enhancements:
- This version added a descriptive progress indicator, a port lookup database to determine the service running on a given port, and a tighter scanning algorythm.
- Also now allows any host to be scanned, not just the local host.
IE_Refresh 1.1
IE_Refresh - Script to regularly auto-refresh all open IE windows more>>
Enhancements:
- The script now tries to restore the scrolling positions of the reloaded windows.
- Known bugs: The OS X version is very slow, if Internet Explorer is not the foreground application.
TestRunner 0.1
TestRunner - Simple framework for unit testing more>>
There are other, more complete testing frameworks out there, most notably UnitKit (Xcode integration, Objective-C-integration), TestKit, OCUnit (old and proven) and ObjCUnit. The problem with them is that they try too much. All except UnitKit tries to be JUnit, with mixed success. Like just about every other open-source project out there, they dont come with that much documentation, which is bad, considering how much functionality they contain. All, again except UnitKit, lack Xcode integration, which is odd, since it so damn simple.
Main features:
- Can run tests in one class or multiple classes
- Can set log format (and Xcode-integration log format).

Temperature Monitor 4.2
Temperature Monitor - Displays all accessible temperature sensors more>>
Temperature Monitor tries to detect all sensors on as many Macintosh computer types as possible.
Main features:
- display in a default window
- output in a screen display in front or in the background of the screen
- tabular display in an overview window
- display in the menu-bar
- display in the Dock icon
- graphical display of short-term and long-term history curves in an unlimited number of windows
- speech output
- display of minimum and maximum values
- export to text or CSV files
- Moreover, the application can display additional technical information about your computer. Among other information this includes processor type, processor and bus frequencies, and manufacturing information.
- The application can read out the data only if your computer is equipped with the necessary sensors, and if Mac OS X can access them without needing third-party device drivers. Starting in summer 2002, Apple has begun to massively drive forward the use of monitoring probes in the PowerMac series, the Xserve series, and in portable computers. Some models are equipped with 38 and more sensors.
- Temperature Monitor tries to detect all sensors on as many Macintosh computer types as possible. However, a prediction which sensors are available in which models is not possible, because Apple very often releases "silent product updates", where the hardware equipments of some models are changed but the names are not. The particular graphics card, hard disk configuration and operating system version is also important.
Enhancements:
- Added support for the new MacBook Pro series introduced in June 2007.
- Added support for a variety of internal temperature sensors of new hard drive models. This affects old Macintosh computers not supporting the AHCI standard.
- Alert panels now display the exact time when the alert situation was detected.
- Selected display preferences for the Dock icon can now be set directly via the context menu of the Dock icon.
- By user request, the Lite version has a new menu item to immediately refresh the display of readings independent of the regular update interval.
- By user request, the Lite version has now support for sensor alerts. The actions to display alert panels, to play the warning sound, and to run external applications are supported.
- The handling of repaired or refurbished Macintosh systems which dont have a valid serial number has been enhanced.
- Modified preference values are now committed to stable storage immediately when the preferences window is closed. This can reduce the likelihood that changes are lost when the application is used to diagnose problems on a computer with defective hardware.

IdeaJad 1.0
IdeaJad - Decompile Java jars or classes from IntelliJIdea more>>
Decompilation can be initiated manually through the context menu, or simply by navigating to a class file (e.g. CTRL-Click on a class or method name). Additionally, the built-in line sorter tries to re-arrange the decompiled class so that the decompiled source code line numbers match those of the original source code. This is quite useful for debugging.
