Speak N Spell - Practice spelling skills more>>
When used with children you can make your own words with words they use.
Four levels of difficulty are provided.
When you first launch Speak N Spell, the default dictionary of over 48,000 words is used. You can open the Word Maintenance window from the menu bar and revise this dictionary (add or delete words), use your own set of words (clear the table and add words), or load a plain text file with words. You can also save the word list to a plain text file. Make such a file one word per line and save the file with a ".txt" suffix.
Enhancements:
- The applause sound was shortened, softened and shaped.
- Approximately one thousand words (acronyms and unusual words with three to six letters) were removed from the default word list.
- You can now select positive feedback to be applause or visual and this setting is saved between sessions.
Matrix Online Status 1.1 Beta
Matrix Online Status - Monitor the status of your favorite Matrix Online server. more>> iGet is an inventive file transfer tool, designed specifically for the Mac.
You can use it to log into your account on any remote Mac, and browse, search, and get the files you need. As easy to use as the best FTP clients, iGet is much more Mac-oriented: you can stop and resume file and folder transfers, and you see the real Mac icons and Finder labels for all your files as you browse. iGet can even put remote files into the Trash instead of irrevocably deleting them.
With Spotlight searches that execute on the remote Mac, you can find anything quickly. Always-on strong SSH encryption keeps your data secure, and you never have to think about details like HFS metadata, resource forks, or unusual characters in your file names. With iGet, all this stuff just works.
iGet works well over virtually any kind of network connection, instead of requiring a fast LAN; it was designed for accessing your Macs over the Internet via DSL, cable, or even cell phone modem.
All this power is wrapped up in a smooth interface that is simple to use and supports all the great technologies that Mac users expect, including Automator, AppleScript, Bonjour, Spotlight, and the Keychain.<<less
UglyPoker 1.0
UglyPoker is an ugly video poker game for your Macintosh computer more>>
Anyway! Ugly, not ugly, its definitely a video poker game for Mac OS X. On the other hand, its beautiful because it contains NO adware or spyware, and its free.
The only difference with UglyPoker compared to a standard Video Poker, (to which most people are accustomed), is in the face cards: they are slightly different in UglyPoker because in place of using the typical Ace, King, Queen and Jack, UglyPoker uses the Francophone version 1, R(oi), D(ame), and V(alet) respectively.
This may look a bit unusual to some people, however, most players will find that it takes little time to become familiar with it.

SIDPLAY 4.1.3 is a helpful Commodore 64 music player which can emulate the sound chip and other internals of the Commodore 64 home computer to play back music that was originally written on it. The sound chip of the C64 is called the "Sound Interface Device" or SID, and therefore this music is known as SID music. The SID chip is basically a three voice synthesizer on a chip. The unusual combination of digital and analogue circuitry is the reason for its distinctive sound.
SIDPLAY strives to offer the best possible SID music experience on any platform. It has been designed with the High Voltage SID Collection (HVSC) in mind. This collection is the biggest and most complete collection of SID music on the Internet.
Major Features:
- Uses the libsidplay2/reSID emulation engine with advanced support for filter distortion
- Built-in directory browser, ideal for browsing the HVSC
- Support for playlists and smart playlists
- Using the HVSC songlength database
- Fast integrated search function using Spotlight
- Built-in STIL browser, view and search the "Sidtune Information List"

2WarpDelay 1.5c
2WarpDelay gives you a useful and smart program which is designed with the features you can find in most other delays: independent delay lines for right and left stereo channels more>> 2WarpDelay 1.5c gives you a useful and smart program which is designed with the features you can find in most other delays: independent delay lines for right and left stereo channels, cross-feedback for control of the delays stereo image, saturation, compressors in the feedback path to prevent harsh clipping with extreme settings and filtering of the feedback paths. Unlike any other existing delay effect, however, 2WarpDelay uses frequency-warped lattice filters (a rather esoteric type of digital filter) in the feedback path with frequency responses that are determined per-channel by bitmaps.
For experienced and dedicated users, the novel use of warped filters offers near-total control over the timbre of the delay. To inexperienced and experienced users alike, 2WarpDelay offers a new and unique sound for their collection and the possibility for anything from subtly unusual delay effects to wildly unpredictable yet surprisingly aesthetic feedback drones and atmospheres.

Infiltrator 1.02
Creative sound-shaping tool for stage or home use more>> Creative sound-shaping tool for stage or home use
Infiltrator is a creative sound-shaping tool for use in the studio and on stage, essentially based around two banks of powerful filters. It was principally designed as a powerful vocoder, but has evolved into something much more and is capable of working as a wide range of filtering FX and tools.
The principal purpose of Infiltrator is for vocoding using channel filter banks, as in the classical analogue vocoders. The Vocoder Mode allows the emulation of nearly every kind of classic vocoder architecture, as well as the creation of brand new vocoder sounds.
In addition to the traditional Synthesis and Analysis filter banks, there is a silence/voiced/unvoiced detector, a noise generator and a built-in synthesizer with twin oscillators for creating carrier signals and waveforms internally. There is also a delay FX available on the inputs and outputs for all sorts of echo-based treatments.
Main features:
- Highly detailed control with physical units - e.g. 0.00001 seconds
- Two 24 channel filterbanks with up to 2/4/6/8 pole, with 11 filter types, including Peaking /shelving EQs, bandpass, notch, LP, HP and more
- Re-configurable architecture to create filter channels, EQs, multiband compressors, vocoders
- Multiple compressors/expanders/gates with lookahead
- Sophisticated silence/voiced/unvoiced detector
- Built-in MIDI monphonic synthesiser with twin oscillators and noise generator
- Ring modulation and FM synthesis features
- 8 sets of 3 assignable real time controllers for instant control
- Realtime control of all filterbanks for unheard-of Vocoding FX
- 3 LFOs for controlling the realtime controls to create fantastic automatic manipulation settings
- Quick/full edit modes - different editing levels for speed and simplicity or deep control
- Extensive metering and monitoring of internal signals
- Internal storage of 99 user programs, with over 55 factory setups.
- Dynamic allocation of DSP resources, allowing different configurations to utilize the hardware fully
- Delay FX on the inputs, outputs, or internally in multiband mode for highly unusual frequency dependent delay FX
- Very extensive 150-page manual for getting inside the highly detailed soundskin
- Various minor user interface and internal improvements
- Delay line maximum times extended to 5 seconds
- Added dedicated delay line time parameter smooting: page "Delays:Setup, smoothig: off,1..15"
- Added Real Time Controller (RTC) target parameters, amongst them are Multiband filter x-over lo/hi frequencies
- Improved Multiband filters
- Added Linkwitz Reilly filters in Multiband mode: page "Setup:Common, MB slope: 12db,24dB" 12dB = Butterworth, 24dB = Linkwitz Reilly
- Added noise input in Multiband mode: page "Input:Left/Right, noise: NdB"

BMI Calculator 1.0
BMI Calculator is created as an easily calculated index of body fat for adults that uses only height and weight. more>>
BMI Calculator 1.0 is created as an easily calculated index of body fat for adults that uses only height and weight. The formula used in this Calculator is (Weight in Pounds / Height in Inches squared) x 703.
The definitional formula is Weight in Kilograms / Height in Meters squared. Because the BMI uses only height and weight, it does not take into account the distribution of muscle and bone mass. Thus, it may be incorrect for athletes or the elderly who generally exhibit unusual distributions of muscle and bone mass.
The BMI should be considered in the context of other variables and used with caution, following consultation with a physician.
NoDesktopCleanup 1.5
NoDesktopCleanup - Control panel that lets you add a confirmation dialog or a KeyQuencer Macro to any menu item more>>
The unusual name comes from the original task I wrote this control panel for: disabling the annoying Clean Up Desktop and Clean Up All menu items in the Finder, which often make ones life miserable by moving all the icons on the desktop away from their carefully chosen locations.
You can run KeyQuencer Macros whenever a menu item is selected, either as an addition to the original command or as a custom replacement.
NoDesktopCleanup also provides a useful auto-confirm timer which prevents your Mac from hanging forever when its working alone and theres no user to press the OK or Cancel buttons.
cloc 1.05
Counts blank lines, comment lines, and physical lines of source code in many programming languages more>> Counts blank lines, comment lines, and physical lines of source code in many programming languages
cloc counts blank lines, comment lines, and physical lines of source code in many programming languages.
It is written entirely in Perl using only modules from the standard distribution of Perl v5.6 and higher (well, sort of) and so is quite portable. cloc is known to run on many flavors of FreeBSD, Mac, Linux, AIX, Solaris, IRIX64, z/OS, and Windows.
Main features:>
- Exists as a single, self-contained file that requires minimal installation effort---just download the file and run it.
- Can read language comment definitions from a file and thus potentially work with computer languages that do not yet exist.
- Allows results from multiple runs to be summed together by language and by project.
- Can count code within compressed archives (tar balls, Zip files, Java .ear files).
- Has numerous troubleshooting options.
- Handles file and directory names with spaces and other unusual characters.
- Has no dependencies outside the standard Perl distribution.
- Runs on Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Linux, NetBSD, AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, IRIX64, and z/OS systems that have Perl 5.6 or higher. The source version runs on Windows with either ActiveState Perl or cygwin. Alternatively on Windows one can run the Windows binary which has no dependencies.
System requirements:
-
Enhancements:
- New languages: ActionScript, D. New options: --skip-uniqueness, --original-dir, --match-f, --not-match-f Python triple quoted strings now treated as comments.
- JSP is now also processed with C/C++ filters. Exit (instead of warn and continue) if incorrect options are given.
- Fixed a bug in the duplicate file identifying code. Previous versions counted duplicate files twice.
- Fix output column alignment when working with long file names or languages.
