This operating system version is required.
Only the computers with “safe sleep” feature are officially supported. For now, the only computers with this feature are the PowerBook HD line of Apple laptops. Please read the included documentation for more information, including the possibilty to use this widget on unsupported computers.

Play is an application for playing and managing audio files.
Play currently supports playback of FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, Musepack, WavPack, Monkey's Audio, AAC, Apple Lossless, MP3 and various other audio file formats.
For lossless formats such as FLAC and WavPack, and for Ogg Vorbis and specially-tagged MP3 files, Play supports gapless playback allowing sample-accurate audio reproduction.
Play's powerful searching and organizational features make finding music a snap! Play's integrated browser allows you to easily locate tracks in your library grouped by artist, album, composer, or genre, while smart playlists create unlimited ways to combine your music.
Need to make changes to your audio files' metadata? No problem! Play has a powerful integrated metadata editor that allows multiple files to be edited at once, even if the files are in different formats.
Never touch your volume control again! Play supports replay gain, allowing files to play at a constant volume despite inherent differences in their loudness.
Play is integrated with the official Last.fm client, so you can share your listening habits with everyone. Consider joining the Play Users group!
Play is free software released under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

A collection of Applescript droplets to launch your X11 programs from the Finder.
Minimum Requirements
Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later (earlier versions are unsupported)
X11 environment (Apple X11, XDarwin, or OroborOSX)
Gnome, KDE, and X11 programs (installed via Fink, MacPorts, or manually)About the XDroplets Collection
The XDroplets Collection consists of a bunch of launchers, or "XDroplets", that better integrate X11 programs with the Mac OS X environment. XDroplets provide the following features:
X11 programs can be launched via the Finder or Dock
documents can be opened via drag and drop
X11 automatically gets launched if it is not already open
Given the extensive range of X11 programs, this set of launchers is by no means comprehensive, but it does cover some of the most common programs for standard X11, KDE, and Gnome distributions. Feel free to contact me if I am missing a launcher for an important program, or to pass along your feedback and thoughts.You can make your own droplets via the included XDroplets Factory.
