Mac Walker 1.1
Mac Walker is widely known as a simple but beautiful ree ScreenSaver for MacOS X. more>>
Mac Walker 1.1 is widely known as a simple but beautiful free ScreenSaver for MacOS X. It shows 3 three-dimensional laptops PowerBook G4 walking in a three-dimensional space (and opening/closing the screen). MacWalker is a freeware, so you can download it for free and install it on your machine at no cost.
In order to install MacWalker you have copy the file MacWalker.saver to your boot disk, within the folder (Home)/Library/Screen Savers/ If the folder (Home)/Library/Screen Savers/ doesn't exist yet, please create it. Then open your System Preference panel, go to the subpanel "ScreenSaver" and choose "MacWalker" from the screensavers list. Press the button Test to see the final result. That's all.
Requirements:
- PowerMacintosh
- MacOS X 10.3 Panther only. It doesn't work on Tiger.
breveWalker 1.5
breveWalker - Physically simulated creature learns to walk more>>
Starting with random walking behaviors, the system learns over time by selectively breeding and mutating these behaviors.
The behaviors are saved from run to run, so evolution continues where it left off every time the screensaver runs.
Enhancements:
- improved speed
- improved graphics
- all behaviors are saved from one run to the next (as opposed to saving just one individual)
- built with the 1.5 version of the breve simulation engine.
Lemmings 1.4.2a
Lemmings - Your goal, of course, is to lead as many lemmings as possible to the exit more>>
Left to their own device, they will, as mentioned, fall off a cliff, be smashed under a press, dissolved in an acid pool, or fall prey to even more sadistic contraptions. Or they just might find themselves in a pit, wandering aimlessly, endlessly, to and fro.
To prevent these dire fates, you can assign roles to individual lemmings. Blockers just stand there and function as obstacles. Diggers can dig downwards through soft, miners through hard surfaces. Bashers do the same horizontally. There are about a dozen such functions.
Your goal, of course, is to lead as many lemmings as possible (you have to reach a quota) through the exit in the assigned time and move on to the next level. You will be given a codeword so you can continue playing where you left off, there are no savegames. (That goes for the DOS and Amiga versions, in the Windows version there are, and most certainly in the Mac version too). You can choose four difficulty levels (fun, tricky, taxing, mayhem) which are actually four different games.
The graphics of Lemmings are a gem of classical game art. The lemmings are only a dozen or so pixels tall, yet their green hair flies, and the blockers foot taps. Backgrounds are eerily beautiful, they show what can be done with 32 colors. The music adds some irony to the game.
Lemmings are maybe the greatest gift the Amiga ever gave to the gaming world in general. The game was ported to most platforms of the time, and sequels continue to be created. Psygnosis, the original publisher, was bought up in 1993 by Sony, who thus now hold the rights for Lemmings.
NOTE: Project has been discontinued.

ClineFit 0.1
Fits genotypic data to equilibrium cline models more>> Fits genotypic data to equilibrium cline models
ClineFit fits genotypic data to equilibrium cline models developed by Nick Barton. ClineFit uses a numerical maximum likelihood algorithm (an MCMC method aka a Metropolis-Hastings algorithm aka a biased random walk), and returns maximum-likelihood estimates and 2-unit support limits.
ClineFit supports diploid, haplodiploid or sex-linked genotypic data using codominant loci.
ClineFit takes data in my own format (very similar to Swoffords BIOSYS) or Arlequin format. ClineFit requires that the location of each population sample be a number, placed as the last piece of information in the populations name.
ClineFitt also requires that you identify, as part of the name of each locus, the alleles that will be most frequent on the right side of the cline.
Main features:
clines with 2, 4, 6 & 8 primary shape parameters, including:
- center and width
- 4 parameters describing introgression tails on either side of the cline
- 2 parameters describing frequencies of asymptotic polymorphisms on each side of the cline, if they are not fixed.
- single or multiple markers
- disequilibrium estimates, from which dispersal and selection estimates are obtained in 6- & 8-parameter models
- models that omit parameters of your choice, such as the introgression tail on one side of the cline
- models that omit such parameters for some traits but not others, under your control
- models that combine parameters traits in ways that you control. For example, you can estimate a single center for all traits, or a unique center for each trait, or any combination in between.

A free Java based tool for creating audio podcasts to help you learn Spanish vocabulary more>> A free Java based tool for creating audio podcasts to help you learn Spanish vocabulary
Vocabularium essentially works as follows:
- from the options screen, you select the vocabulary topic of your podcast (note that new releases of the software will periodically be made with more topics);
- each topic contains sub-topics which you can switch on or off (for example, the Clothes topic has sub-topics including types of coats, types of trousers etc);
- you select the voices that you want to read the Spanish vocabulary and English glosses (see below for information about downloading voices);
- then, you click Create Podcast, where you will be prompted to set a file name; clicking Create then starts the podcast creation process;
- then, you sit back and have a coffee or go to lunch? depending on the voice youve selected, the creation process takes a few minutes.
You should now have a lovely, shiny podcast to listen to. Copy the resulting file to your favourite WAV or MP3 player (or iPod if Apple will let you) to listen to while youre on the bus or tube, walking the dog, or in a particularly dull meeting, geography lesson etc.
Vocabularium is cross-platform and will run on Mac OS X, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Linux.
