xAplos Tech Corner: Mac OS

Applescript Web Publishing System (AWPS)
An AppleScript-based Web page building system. Seems similar to what Radio can do by publishing static sites by using templates and the outliner.

RFC: Cocoa RSS API
An interesting Cocoa class for reading RSS feeds. Could become handy if I ever decided to start coding a conduit for the Palm to display RSS news feeds.

The Little Page of Beta AppleScripts
A cool little gallery of AppleScript code.

BlogApp v1.2
A neat little OS X weblog editor. Some features to note are (1) ability to add user-defined HTML tags, (2) spell checker and (3) a template feature for 'standardizing' posts.

Save command history from multiple shells
A great little hack to save the last commands performed in multiple terminal windows.

Internet Version Checking in OS X
Great article that describes adding support for checking for new software releases via the Internet within a Cocoa-based program.

Mac OS X Website full of Great Hints
This site appears to be a great resource for tips and tricks related to Mac OS X.

OSAShell Scripting Component
A great new tool has been released that allows writing shell scripts from within ScriptEditor or Radio.

AEStream and Friends
New Apple technote “describes the AEStream* collection of APIs that can be used to construct Apple event records and Apple event descriptors using stream oriented calling conventions. This is great news given the support of AppleScript and Apple events in OS X. Note to self: Definitely something to look further into.
