If not, they will be copied back into the System Font directory. FontExplorer X Pro 2.5.2 introduces a function to the ‘Tools’ menu which can turn System Font Protection on or off. When turning System Font Protection back on, you can optionally restore removed system fonts. (Requires OS 10.5 or higher)

    DaisyDisk 2.0 beta 1 - Free up disk space by quickly finding and deleting big, useless files.. (Shareware): "

    DaisyDisk allows you to visualize your disk usage and free up disk space by quickly finding and deleting big unused files.

    The program scans your disk and displays its content as a sector diagram where the biggest files and folders at once become obvious. To drill down to a folder, just click on a segment. To bubble up, click in the center. Move the mouse over the diagram and see the name and path of each file, and enclosed files (if any). Hit Space to quickly preview file content, without launching another application. In this way, walk around your disk and drag-and-drop all unneeded files into the 'collector'. When done, clean it up with a single click.



    Version 2.0 beta 1:




    • In-app file deletion


    • Brand new UI, created from scratch on Core Animation


    • Ability to scan several disks/folders at a time


    • Scan results are remembered while the application is running, can be 'forgotten' to free memory


    • More informative disk descriptions


    • Redesigned disk usage gauge


    • Scanned folders are added to the list of sources


    • New logic for scanning as Administrator (was Super-User)


    • New About window informs you about recovered space totals, allows you to tweet your results


    • Updated Feedback window


    • Redesigned Crash Reporter (we hope you'll never see it)


    • New error handling logic (yep, built-in dialogs suck)


    • Major under the hood changes and tons of tweaks you'll unlikely ever need to know about



    What's known to be missing/broken:





    • We haven't switched to a new registration system, but DaisyDisk 2 beta accepts DaisyDisk 1.x license keys


    • Localization is dropped (we're not accepting localizations for some time, sorry...)


    • Help file is missing (we haven't finished working on it yet)

    • A few more things...

    XBMC is an award winning media center for Mac OS X. The ultimate High Definition hub for all your media, XBMC is easy to use, looks slick, and has a large helpful community.

    Version 10.0-rc2:

    Dharma RC2 is ready, and this one is a Release Candidate in the truest sense. There are a few reasons we decided to do one last pre-release:

    • Shoutcast support has been redone. Listening to your favorite online radio stations with the shoutcast plugin is now a much nicer experience.
    • The add-ons moved out of the testing repository and into their permanent home. This means that everyone will need to upgrade in order to see future add-on updates. If you continue to use RC1 or previous, please don’t report a lack of updates.
    • Automatic updates for add-ons are now enabled by default. Of course, you can still disable them via the add-on manager if you prefer.

    Tunnelblick 3.1 - GUI for OpenVPN (was OpenVPN-GUI).. (Free): "

    Tunnelblick, formerly known as OpenVPN-GUI, is a simple graphical user interface for the great VPN software OpenVPN 2.0 or later. It is written in Cocoa and comes in a ready to use distribution with all necessary binaries and drivers. Versions of OpenVPN older than 2.0 are not supported, because they lack the management interface used by Tunnelblick. Please send feedback and suggestions to info@tunnelblick.net.

    Version 3.1:

    • A new kind of configuration, a 'Tunnelblick VPN Configuration', includes all information needed to make a connection (OpenVPN configuration file, certificates, keys, scripts, etc.)

      • They may be shared among all users of a computer, or they may be private to a particular user.
      • They can be connected automatically when the computer starts. Tunnelblick can disconnect and connect (i.e., stop and start) them, and they will stay connected when Tunnelblick quits.

    • Loads and unloads tun and tap kexts only as needed.
    • Includes OpenVPN 2.1.4.
    • Includes imbedded OpenSSL 1.0.0c, which contains fixes for security vulnerabilities and adds support for many more digests and ciphers. Thanks to Mohammad A. Haque!
    • Improved display when there are a large number of configurations.
    • Replaces the 'Set nameserver' checkbox with a drop-down list that displays additional choices.
    • Scripts may be run before a tunnel is connected and/or after it is disconnected, providing more flexibility for complex or mixed VPN situations.
    • Deployers can easily add menu items to the Tunnelblick menu to execute programs (e.g., scripts).
    • Deployers can specify programs that should be executed when Tunnelblick is launched or before a connection is attempted.
    • Benji Greig has created an updated Tunnelblick icon that looks great in Coverflow. He has also created a distinctive icon for Tunnelblick VPN Configurations, and a new background image for the Disk Image. Thanks, Benji!
    • Many thanks also to Michael Williams. Several new enhancements are possible due to the his work.
    • Implements a single, system-wide shortcut key to expose the Tunnelblick menu.
    • The DNS cache is now flushed after the tunnel is established and after it is torn down. This is enabled by default but may be disabled by the per-connection '-doNotFlushCache' preference.
    • Includes localization-related code tweaks by Stefan Bethke.
    • Includes Polish localization by Grzegorz Danecki and Italian localization by Pierpaolo Gulla.
    • A DHCP renew which restores the original DNS and/or WINS information no longer causes the connection to restart.
    • The documentation has been reorganized and expanded.

It includes adult-auction management, MANY currencies (yen, pound, dollar [US, Canada, Australian, and New Taiwanese], Swiss Francs, and euro, presently), drag-and-drop of auction URLs, a unique and powerful 'multisniping' feature, a relatively nice UI, and is known to work cleanly under Linux, Windows, Solaris, and Mac OS X from the same binary.


    Currently it is only implemented for eBay, but it is abstracted suitably to work with any online auction site with a minimum of changes.

    Version 2.1.3:


    • All ‘null (FP)’ problems should be resolved
