Comment and replies on Microsoft Messenger:
Exactly, nothing new... Still the total lack of functionality.
So, basicly back to Adium, if it would only have those private messages.
Comment and replies on RDC Menu:
Actually, I what to update my post. This has become a problem. I love the program but it is always crashing when I quit out of it. I usually have to force quit to get it to close. I am on a very fast machine w/ a lot of bandwith running 10.4.10.
Comment and replies on UNO:
The 1.5, just out today, can now skin iTunes, Mail, Preview...
this new version (1.5) is even better (as it should be). what is a subtle difference to some is a better mac world for others. i love especially what it does for iTunes. great freeware!
The new mail skin is worth this app alone!
Does this work the way Shapeshifter does? And thus have the potential for the same problems?
Conlan: Nope.
Just had to waste time uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes as it was totally corrupted by Uno. Definately not impressed.
This is an awesome app, but does not seem to be compatible with iTunes 7.2 yet. But then, neither is Aqua4iTunes without the recent update.
I'm having the same problems as everyone else. I had to reinstall iTunes, and disable UNO for iTunes, but I left it on for everything else and it works fine. I juse emailed them about it, and hopefully they'll do something about it. Until then, I have to deal with a slightly darker iTunes. :-)
maybe this help http://gui.interacto.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=46&Itemid=33
UNO 1.5.2 was just released, with full support for iTunes 7.3.1.
Not compatible with iTunes 7.5 (yet) but instead it simply launches and the option to alter your iTunes will be greyed out....so no problems there (especially if you use Aqua4iTunes as well).
One problem though is now there is a separate option for quicktime. When I enabled this, my quicktimes broke, necessitating a complete re-install. What was happening was that movie's were playing but with sound only, no video. Clicking "Restore" in UNO had no effect - the window did revert to look graphically as it used to, but video was still broken.
Luckily going to the apple website and re-downloading Quicktime 7.3 dmg (and re-installing) "cured" the issue (qt 7.3 now works, albeit with it's window not-uno'd).
Apart from that, all other GUI's work fine and look nice all unified.
Overall, as long as you don't alter QT with it, it still works brilliantly.
(BTW, PPC 10.4.10 used here).
Comment and replies on Smultron:
New great icons for the toolbar, since 3.5. Very nice, finally. ;-)
Appearance & behavior of Smultron are extremely customizable. Unlike WYSIWYG editors with pre-set buttons, you can create your own menus & shortcuts. Store code snippets & page templates that you use frequently. This makes coding so much faster. Modify the menus as your knowledge of coding grows. Edit files on a web server by connecting an ftp app to Smultron (works with Cyberduck). User manual is easy to understand. App is frequently updated. Developer responds to questions, improves app based on user feedback & suggestions.
Comment and replies on Transmission:
The new version 0.7 is in developement, and it looks good. Check out here : http://chucker.mystfans.com/opensource/transmission/Transmission-latest.dmg
Okay, so 0.7 is still in development. Why is this now called 0.7? It's not out yet!
Transmission works fine with demonoid and other trackers. One big problem, after the download is complete, you HAVE to check the files by stopping the torrent, dragging the file of folder out of the transmission folder, restarting the torrent, stopping it again, and then dragging the original file or folder back to the tranmission folder (overwriting the new files transmission created). Then start the torrent again, transmission will now check the download again. Often, there is a error and a small portion needs to be downloaded again. It would be nice if Transmission would doublecheck the downloads before declaring them compleet!

"7.0" out today : it's a big joke. New icon, almost nothing else.
