Mac Heist bundle sale: great software, feel good buying it

13 12 2006

Mac Heist Bundle is featuring some really good software, and the authors are donating money to charity. On the topic of apps, Aptana is a recent entry into the web IDE market. I may check this out while on vacation. On the topics of Macs, I’ve had the misfortune of having to visit this page.



Textmate, Bundles and the YUI Pattern Library

3 12 2006

I use Textmate for all my web work on the Mac, and it rocks. I especially like the bundles, which give Textmate keyword coloring, keyboard shortcuts and other goodness for specific languages. On their blog, the Textmaters mentioned the Getbundle bundle by Sebastian Gräßl but offer the wrong link to it. The one in this paragraph (or in the Textmate blog’s comments) are right. Anyway, Getbundle handles what used to be a messy process quite elegantly.

What’s more, is that Ross Harmes released a Yahoo! User Interface bundle that cuts down on all the typing needed to implement the YUI library. He has installation instructions and an overview, and the YUI blog has a screencast of it.
