We’ve just released Minim 1.1.2. This fixes a few bugs with Minim, including a rather annoying one that stopped Minim from working if you had a non ascii character or a space in the file path eg. My Apps/Minim.app. Hopefully our next update for Minim will be 1.2 though before that we have our new application to finish off. You’ll be seeing quite a bit more about it over the next month so keep your eyes peeled.

First, a little oddity I noticed while messing around in Interface Builder today. If you add an NSTextFieldCell to a table column and try to change it’s class you’ll notice that it doesn’t list NSTokenFieldCell. If you want to have a token cell in your table you have to add the NSTokenFieldCell header from AppKit into IB. Why it isn’t already in IB I don’t know, but it’s worth pointing out.

And now onto something a bit more exciting. I’ve spent the day working on our next application and hit a snag when I wanted to build a rule editor, similar to those used in Mail and iTunes for smart Mailboxes/Playlists. After spending a few hours trying to write something I gave up and decided to look for sample code on the interweb. After much searching I found that there wasn’t really any code that did what I want, things were looking glum. Then I stumbled across this code and suddenly the sun came out (thanks a lot to Joar for this code). Several hours later and I had a working rule editor. All that was left to do was package it up, update our Open Source site and write a blog post (*checks writing blog post off his list*).

So here it is, M3RuleEditor. Feel free to download it, use it, hack it, put it in your apps, make soup from it…. whatever takes your fancy. And keep a look out for this code appearing in a new M Cubed app coming soon

This blog will feature lots of news, tips and useful insights into our software and our company. So if you like our software then be sure to add this to your bookmarks, if not then add it anyway.
