MilkMaid 0.7.5

Just released MilkMaid 0.7.5.  A couple of major things in this release.  First being a new icon.  I’m not thrilled with it, but it makes more sense than the one I was using before.  If there are any designers out there who want to take a shot at it, feel free.  I’ll give you all the credit.  The other thing in this release is the ability to show MilkMaid in the menubar.  You now have the option to have MilkMaid in the menubar, the dock or both.  Here’s the changelist:

Features

• Option for Menubar Icon, Dock Icon or Both

Changes

• New Icon

OWANotifier 2.0

OWANotifier is an app that I actually created a few years back when I was playing with pyobjc to get into mac development.  Now that I’ve got a grasp on objective-c, I’ve re-written it.  To those who don’t know (since it’s been awhile since I’ve done any development for it), OWANotifier is a very simple menu bar app that will check Outlook Web Access for mail.  It is very useful for people who work on a mac and their company uses Outlook Exchange for email.  It will notify you via Growl every time a new message arrives and you can jump to any unread message from the menu bar (it will open up a browser window).  To those who used v1.0, not that much has changed, little enhancements here and there (clicking growl notification to view message, listing all and being able to click unread mail in menu bar, adding auto update support).  Currently it only supports OWA 2007, but support for 2003 and 2010 is on the roadmap.

MilkMaid 0.7.3

Another release for MilkMaid.  Only thing added is a jump to tag feature.  You can now jump to a tag and then any tasks added will be tagged with that tag.  Tags will also be auto-completed.  Due to a limitation in Remember The Milk, they will only be auto-completed after a task with that tag has been loaded.  So if you a tag isn’t auto-completing, then you can just manually type it in and it will remember it for next time.

Features

• Jump to Tag (cmd-t)

Changes

• Don’t load last list on new windows

MilkMaid 0.7.2

I just released a minor update to MilkMaid.  Only thing that changes is the ability to have multiple windows open at once.  To open up a new MilkMaid window, just hit CMD-N or click “New Window” in the file menu.  Here’s the changelist:

Changes

• Support for Multiple Windows (cmd-N)

MilkMaid 0.7.1

Bug fix release today.  Here’s the change list:

Changes

• Updated Sparkle Framework

Bug Fixes

• Clear global attributes when canceling MultiAdd
• Fixed issues when setting due date

Download

MilkMaid 0.7

New release for MilkMaid.  This one is all about making the functionality in MilkMaid simliar to the Remember The Milk experience.  I’ve added the ability to rename (CMD-R), set tags (CMD-S) and set due date (CMD-D) (setting priority was already there) using the same hotkeys that Remember The Milk uses.  The downside is that this changes some of the existing hotkeys.  Search has gone from CMD-S to CMD-F.  The other hotkey change is MultiAdd has gone from CMD-M to CMD-Return.

One other thing I tossed in there was global attributes for MultiAdd.  So now if you have a bunch of tasks you want to add with the same attributes, you can do it like this:

Features

• Rename Task (cmd-r)
• Change Due Date (cmd-d)
• Change Tags (cmd-s)
• Global attributes for multiadd

Changes

• Refresh Hotkey now cmd-shift-r
• Changed MultiAdd hotkey to cmd-return
• Changed Search hotkey to cmd-f
• Removed Due Date Menu

Bug Fixes

• Scroll to top of list when seraching

MilkMaid - Dock vs Menu

I’m curious to see how people would like MilkMaid’s default behavior to be. An icon up in the menubar or how it is currently - a dock icon.

MilkMaid 0.6

New release for MilkMaid.  Fixes a bunch of bugs.  The main thing is adding 10.5 support.  Let me know if anybody has any issues.

Features

• Support for 10.5
• MultiAdd window is now larger
• Cmd-Return inside MultiAdd will Add Tasks

Bug Fixes

• Fixed crashing issue trying to display certain tasks
• Scroll to top of list when changing
• Clear MultiAdd on cancel
• Fixed tasks were bold when they shouldn’t be
• Fixed display issue if a task had a tag and a date
• Hide app badge if task count is 0

Tumblr Theme Updater

Now that I’m pretty much full go on Tumblr I’ve realized how much of a pain in the ass it is to update a custom theme.  (Modify local html, copy, paste into tumblr, update, save, realize you missed something, start again).  If you start following this blog, you will realize that I will go out of my way to create scripts that make my life easier.  This is no exception.  I’ve written a simple script that will take a local html file and replace your current theme with it.  Not sure if anybody else feels the pain when updating their Tumblr theme, but if you do, this should help.

Usage:
python update.py -e [email] -p [password] -b [blogname] -f [path to theme file]
