Neue Jahreszeit, neue Programmversionen. Für diesen Herbst haben wir Updates für unsere Freeware-Programme ThumbsUp und XMenu sowie für DEVONthink To Go für Sie vorbereitet. (mehr)

Right in time for spring here in the US and in Europe we've done some traditional spring cleaning and prepared a few updates for you:

DEVONsphere Express 1.9.1 brings performance-related improvements and works better with the AFPS filesystem. It now also searches text in PDF annotations and forms, handles ePub books better, and improves finding related websites. Auto-completing search terms makes typing queries more comfortable. (mehr)

Our friends at MacObserver mentioned DEVONthink, EasyFind, and more again in their excellent Mac Geek Gab podcast, episode 679:

Quick Tips, Cool Stuff Found, High Sierra, and KRACK are the topics today, but that means you’re in for a real treat. The goal is for everyone to learn at least four (4!) new things, but today you’re guaranteed to learn a whole lot more. (mehr)

In episode 549 of their podcast Mac Geek Gab John F. Braun and Dave Hamilton pull out their favorite utilities and services and present them to you in a compact 1 hour 19 minute podcast. Ideal for your drive home in pre-weekend traffic. Around minute 7:31 they also mention our free find-file utility EasyFind. (mehr)

Writing copy text that's easy to read is, well, not easy. Especially Germans like me tend to build long nested sentences popup: true. Fortunately there are simple mechanical tools like, e.g., the Automated Readability Index popup: true. It counts the sentences, words, and letters in a text and returns an estimate on how difficult it is to read. The number it spits out correlates roughly to the US grade level. (mehr)

XMenu's user-defined menu allows you to build you very own menu extra menu. You just have to add your own documents, apps, or scripts to its Custom folder. In XMenu's Preferences first check the User-Defined option to make the menu appear. Right-click this menu, which appears with a gear icon, to quickly show its folder. It is always named Custom. Add and remove files to or from this folder to customize the menu's content to your needs. (mehr)

We have already updated DEVONthink popup: true and DEVONagent popup: true with the necessary adjustments for OS X Yosemite. Today we've released DEVONsphere Express 1.8 popup: true as well as new versions of PhotoStickies popup: true and XMenu popup: true. DEVONsphere 1.8 adds support for Finder and Open Meta tags, Scapple files, and diagnostic reports. It also uses Open Graph properties of HTML pages and web pages to provide more accurate results. On OS X Mavericks and later version 1.8 indexes email messages again. The update also reduces DEVONsphere Express' CPU usage and improves its performance and reliability. (mehr)

DEVONthink popup: true is the document and information manager for the Mac. Version 2.7.7 recognizes Apple's new and shiny Swift popup: true source code files, retains more metadata than before when you export documents, and prefills the Save panel with tags for you. Many more small interface improvements make using the app easier. (mehr)

Last week we've released updates for our popular freeware services WordService and CalcService popup: true. Today Apple has approved them for the App Store, too. Now you have the choice whether you'd like to install them directly from our download page popup: true or from the App Store popup: true.

DEVONagent helps you find whatever you're looking for using the search engines of choice. Version 3.8.1 gives you even more accurate results, skips Amazon results, and comes with updated MacUpdate plugin and Twitter Accounts scanner. In addition, DEVONagent Pro 3.8.1 executes menu scripts in the background now. So they no longer interrupt your important research work. The update fixes an incompatibility to DEVONthink 2.7.6, too.
