RUPipeFilters: A RU tool that does something I can't figure out, but it uses my updater code, so it must be good. 
New version of launch out, with some minor fixes, and a cool contributed script that lets you talk to launch while not logged in at the console.

I wrote a simple drag-and-drop SCP script. You'll need Bill Bumgarner's excellent SSHPassKey and Satimage.osax (included with Smile).
Mainly useful for me to leave on the desktop so I can quickly upload screenshots for others to look at—especially now Mac OS X is able to generate them directly in PNG format.
It was with some hesitation that I bought Script Debugger a few weeks ago. I now recommend it unconditionally: it's a great tool, well worth the price. Makes writing AppleScript almost enjoyable.
Today's
Brent's
birthday, and
Josh
Lucas's birthday, and my birthday as well. I'm 23.
I couldn't resist - tonight is our first real snowfall I've seen this
winter in Illinois - I was away last time. Big difference from the
freezing rain/sleet that pelted everything in sight last night (and it
hurt!) It's so beautiful looking out the window, I don't want to
sleep, but I must.

I'm too far behind with non-Net stuff - house, car, music, family,
etc. Nothing catastrophic is wrong, but I fear it will happen if I
don't start paying more attention to the world outside my computer.
Until I'm caught up I'm reducing my online presence - including this
weblog.
