0.4a1 (nightly) is Universal. I use it to generate a list of events. I register my workhours in iCal, and need a simple list of activities between certain date bounds for invoices. iCal's print function doesn't handle this.

I think the GUI still needs some work to make it look and feel like genuine Mac software, but it is a very promising application, and a very important for the Mozilla family.

I managed to build and install it using DarwinPorts (or MacPorts, as it's now called - www.macports.org)

For those who don't want to use a package manager and who don't want to built pdftk themselves I've provided an Intel Mac binary of the current version of pdffk (1.41): http://anoved.net/2007/11/pdftk-141-for-intel-macs.html

To clear up anoved's comment below: The download link above actually goes to an installer that includes the binary plus all necessary libraries (in contrast to anoved's binary which is unusable without the gcj libraries).

For the record, I also started building this with MacPorts, until I noticed it had started downloading gcc 4.2... supposedly an 8-hour build(!). This is because it needs gcj (no, it's written in C++ but for some diabolical reason they insist on linking up some Java libraries... so why not write the app in Java in the first instance?). brian d foy has an amusing article on compiling pdftk in his oreillynet column. Take my advice and stick to the binary installer.

SVN version works on second-generation (Merom) Macbooks.

Does anybody know wheter is is universal. It doesn't run on my Intel ® Mac... strange thing!

This is a useful utility for wardriving/stumbling/whatever they call it these days.

Beware. This can f@#$ up your Wi-Fi card. Shut off ALL internet apps before running.

I didn't know this, and panicked when I closed it for the first time and my Airport card ceased to function. A restart got my Airport back to working order, but now I can't get KisMAC to work. Oh well.

Glad to see they're still working on this. It used to crash constantly on my MBP but after trying out the the latest version (R228) for a few days it has been extremely solid and works well.

This is a very cool application... there is no real competition for amazingly useful wireless stumblers. That said, tread carefully---this thing broke my wireless card completely...

The project is not dead, by the way. While we have lost the developer that started it all, we still have the source, and are moving development outside of Germany.

KisMAC IS ALIVE!

The new website is: kismac.macpirate.ch/

Any chance of this working for Leopard? Can't wait for it.

Download site seems dead, but version 0.21a r241 can be found here:

New website is: http://trac.kismac-ng.org/

Please do not update iusethis to the latest version, they specifically request that you do not

@bgower:

1. Open preferences.

2. Open the "Driver" preference pane.

3. Select "Apple Airport Extreme card, passive mode" (or the non-extreme option if that is what you have. Click "Add".

4. Close Preferences.

5. Click "Start Scan" in the main window.

6. Enter your admin password if prompted.

For most people, thats how you get 99% of the functionality you're looking for.

@bgower: airradar is not the same as kismac, kismac is not for just finding networks, it is for gaining access...

Starting with version 3, Nessus is not open source anymore :-(

Nmap is introducing vulnerability scanning from version 4.21 onwards (currently in alpha).
