Select, Start

On Wednesday, I purchased a new ADC Select membership, which means I should have Leopard to develop on at home soonish. Of course, this means I'll have to back up and delete a bunch of stuff to make room….

Leopard and all that kind of thing

nobody@vox.com(Wevah) — Tue, 30 Oct 2007 17:54:23 -0500

Yes, I know Paparazzi! crashes on Leopard. I think I kind of know why, but I can't do anything about it until I have a copy of Leopard myself.

Once that happens, I will fix it ASAP, but I don't know how soon that will be, unfortunately.

Paparazzi! 0.5b4

nobody@vox.com(Wevah) — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 12:08:34 -0500

Paparazzi! 0.5b4 is ready.

Download.

Fixed a crash that would occur when the first character of a Firefox bookmark’s title was encoded as a character entity (e.g., ').
Automator actions will now launch Paparazzi! if it is not already running.
The displayed “last updated” date in the Update Preferences will now properly update immediately when updates are checked for.

Witty birthday title.

Yesterday was my birthday, which I celebrated by not working, by playing too many Warsong Gulch matches, and by going to bed at around 7 PM. Maybe I'll really celebrate it later this week ("really" meaning "with heaps of booze").

Entities? Blech!

nobody@vox.com(Wevah) — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 09:46:06 -0500

There is a crasher in the Paparazzi! 0.5 betas that will rear its nasty head if you (a) use Firefox and (b) have a Firefox bookmark whose title's first character is represented in the bookmarks file by an HTML entity (', for example). It crashes because I forgot to check the return value of some scanner methods (which prompted me to make sure I checked return values in the IE URL file parsing I did for Camino (which I did; whew!)).

Anyway, this will be fixed in b4, which I'd like to have out later today. Maybe.

Automatron

If I remember correctly, the Automator actions in Paparazzi! 0.5b3 won't work if Paparazzi! isn't already running (since non-running applications don't receive Apple Events (duh)). This will be fixed for the next beta.

Woo-woo! (But not just for dekarashun.)

0.5b3

THIS VERSION WILL CRASH UNDER 10.3.x, but getting something out is better than nothing at all.

It’s a beta because I lack confidence. Oh, and because the help docs aren’t done. And there could be ~~boogz~~bugs!!

Report the bugs.

Send the feedback.

Test the Automator actions!

Test the batch window!!

Send the donations!!!

Whoops.

Apparently, there are some issues with the 0.5 beta builds under 10.3.9 that I let a few people test out. Issues as in crashes. I fixed the initial one, which was a framework I needed to weak-link (Quartz.framework for PDFKit under 10.4), but now it’s crashing on launch in nib loading. I thought it might be my custom window, but changing the nib to use a normal NSWindow has no effect, either.

Unfortunately, I don’t really feel like doing serious debugging on Paparazzi! under 10.3.9 through other people (I don't have a working 10.3.9 machine at the moment as my TiBook is dead), which means I may just have to scrap 10.3.9 support earlier than I thought. Looking at my Web logs, around 10% of the users (who still have version checking on) are still using 10.3.x, but I can't help feeling a little bad about dropping support if I do so.

Almost done.

Yeah, I take forever. Being an obsessive perfectionist sucks.
