EPS Mover can read any portable EPS file (encapsulated PostScript(R) file) and convert its preview into the proper format for the target platform you designate. For example, you may have a CD-ROM of EPS clip art that was created for use on PCs, but which you would like to use on a Macintosh. EPS Mover can quickly convert the PC EPS files into equivalent Macintosh EPS files. ------------------- System Requirements EPS Mover requires a Macintosh computer with a PowerPC processor running System 7.0 or later. Because EPS Mover contains only PowerPC native code, it will not run on older Macs using 68000 series processors. To install EPS Mover, simply double-click the EPS Mover Installer icon, and follow the on-screen instructions. Pricing and registration details can be found in the package. ------------------- Version 1.0.3 Changes * Minor Changes * Updated web site and email address ------------------- Path: /www/exparrot/files.tidbits.com/info-mac/gst/grf/eps-mover-103.hqx Fri, 17 Mar 2006 20:57:59 -0800 http://www.applefritter.com/node/14709 I am not a regular Adobe Illustrator user, but when I do use it I am always frustrated by the lack of ability to move an object to line up with another object without moving the second object.

Simply drag an MP3 file onto the little yellow head, and JARED butcher your MP3. You will find no equals in suck-i-ness! Download the original JARED and other toys at: http://www.freeverse.com/freeverse/toys/ >From the liner notes of Jared's first album, "Touching you, Touching me... touching you again." While Central America has seen more than its share of atrocities in recent years; never before has a lovely Guatemalan folk song been brutalized as thoroughly as by the vocal stylings of JARED, the Head of Security at FREEVERSE SOFTWARE. Like an angry Immigration officer, Jared's distinctive rendition grabs us, slaps us around, threatens to cavity search us and ultimately demands our passport be issued from that same circle of hell from which his voice originates. Never has the mating of cats sounded so melodic as after one has listened to "El Carnicero de Canciones." the "Butcher of Songs," as Jared was known in Guatemala. Yet, this is perhaps the worst part, one is somehow drawn to his song, playing it over and over again. So listen to, "Shayla-uuugh", and suffer -- for this is art. www.freeverse.com Path: /www/exparrot/files.tidbits.com/info-mac/gst/snd/jared-butcher-of-mp3.hqx Fri, 17 Mar 2006 22:25:59 -0800 http://www.applefritter.com/node/14630 About EPStoPICT(tm) EPStoPICT is a Macintosh application from Art Age Software, the makers of the award-winning application epsConverter(tm). EPStoPICT can read any portable Level 1 EPS or PostScript file and convert it into a Macintosh PICT file, suitable for editing with a Macintosh drawing application, or for viewing with any application that supports standard PICT files. EPStoPICT parses the actual PostScript code in the EPS file and translates it into PICT data. Although this process takes longer than simply extracting a PICT preview from the EPS file, there are several advantages to this approach: (1) Some EPS files do not have a PICT preview to extract! (2) Often the PICT preview is not an accurate representation of the EPS file's true contents. It may be poorly rendered, or black and white only, for example. (3) When present, PICT previews are usually stored as low-resolution bitmaps. This essentially prevents them from being scaled or edited. EPStoPICT produces a vector PICT representation of the PostScript data, which allows for better scaling (zooming in and out), and even a limited degree of editing with several popular drawing applications. EPStoPICT supports AppleScript, Balloon Help and drag and drop operation from the Finder. ------------------- System Requirements EPStoPICT requires a Macintosh computer with a 68020 or later processor (including PowerPC) running System 7.0 or later. Once registered, EPStoPICT is accelerated for Power Macintosh computers. To install EPStoPICT, simply double-click the EPStoPICT Installer icon, and follow the on-screen instructions. Pricing and registration details can be found in the package. ------------------- Version 1.2.2 Changes * Updated web site and email address * Default memory partition has been increased to allow use under MacOS 8.5 and later.

More specifically, you can set up a series of symbols and replacement rules (ala an LSystem) using three dimensional shapes and view the resulting fractal at various iterations. Or something along those lines. Anyway, all fractal programs are required to justify themselves by saying that they make "pretty pictures," so pretend I said that. More importantly, it's freeware.

Unlike other iPod copy tools, iPod.iTunes provides real synchronization of MP3/AAC/Audible tracks and even playlists entries from your iPod(s) to your Mac(s). iPod.iTunes saves your time because it automatically only copies those tracks which are missing in the iTunes library, excluding duplicates. If you wish, it provides also an option to show a list of tracks which are not in iTunes and to copy only desired tracks from that list. iPod.iTunes can be used to - Keep music and playlists on different Macs up to date - Do a full restore of tracks and playlists - i.e. after a hard disk failure - Revert accident deletion of tracks and/or playlists, if these are still on your iPod - Clone an iPod - Transfer an entire music library from one Mac to another via the iPod Tracks and playlist entries can be synchronized together or separately. If the tracks on the iPod already in the iTunes library and you only want the playlists, you can use the playlist synchronization alone. With every synchronization iPod.iTunes creates a date&time stamped iTunes playlist containing the tracks which were copied. This gives the option to easily add those tracks to existing playlists or to create new playlists from the transferred tracks. *** Requirements Mac OS 10.1.2 - 10.3.2 iTunes 2.0.4 - 4.2 iPod firmware 1.0 - 2.1 *** Links Homepage: http://www.crispSofties.com/ Readme: http://www.crispSofties.com/i.i/index.html Download: http://www.crispsofties.com/i.i/ipod_itunes.dmg Path: /www/exparrot/files.tidbits.com/info-mac/gst/snd/ipod-itunes-250.hqx Fri, 17 Mar 2006 22:25:58 -0800 http://www.applefritter.com/node/14628 About epsConverter(tm) epsConverter is an award-winning Macintosh application from Art Age Software. epsConverter can read any portable Level 1 EPS file and convert it into an Adobe Illustrator file, suitable for editing with Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia FreeHand, Deneba Canvas or any other application that supports the Illustrator file format. epsConverter is great for editing EPS files from FreeHand, XPress, PageMaker, etc. You can also use it to convert EPS files into a format which Photoshop will import and rasterize (with patterns intact!). The documentation lists many other uses. Finally, an economical solution to the problem of incompatible and non-editable EPS file formats!

It enables you to make compositions and process them any way you like: Compress or convert a melody line, replace the sound or even modify key, octave and duration. Put finalized compositions into a play list. Edit them afterwards or install them onto another HyperCard stack. Buttons are grouped in functional clusters; most of them can be shift-clicked for direct access to the relevant Help section which is in English as well as in Dutch. Two special facilities, 'Auto Compression' and 'Test Import of Sound Resources', make HyperKeyboard stand out against other melody scripting tools. HyperKeyboard is shareware. Version 5.5 fixes an error - there was a black key missing - with the musical keyboard.
