…ess mailboxes on the hiptop by sending mail to mailbox#username\@tmail.com, which is rather neat; however it's not possible to configure a mailbox to match an account, that I could see. Perhaps I need to do some more digging. I need a new Mac OS X FTP client. Interarchy 6 is slow and buggy. MacSFTP is nice and fast, Fugu is slower but still usable, but they don't support FTP. Transmit 2 has some incredibly useful features such as the pre…

…lly book. There's a weird sort of symmetry as Karl Fogel, who works on Subversion but is not a primary author of the new book, has a copy of his CVS book at cvsbook.red-bean.com. Congrats to Ben, CMike, and Fitz (who works for Apple, so I can't imagine the Mac will be given short shrift in the book)….

…doesn't handle email addresses or “slack” URLs such as www.domain.com, and responds to a nonstandard shortcut that happily leaves room for me to have ICeCoffEE intervene on a Command-click. The rewritten Terminal is an opportunity for me to pick up where I left off on ICeCoffEE. I took a break from research tonight and did some poking around with F-Script Anywhere. It looks like I'll be able to access the contents of Jaguar Terminal wind…
