Coming to a computer near you….

I think it's time to give you a small taste of what is coming over the next few weeks from us. First lets start with the boring stuff:

Minim 1.1.3: Just a quick bugfix that is coming in a mid-augustish time period.

New website: No I haven't moved servers yet but yet my brain does keep nagging me to get round to it. It's not a huge change but enough to make a difference. This will hopefully be out in around 2 weeks time

M3Extensions 1.1 (non-programmers can skip this): with some cool new methods and clean ups of old ones, due soon after Minim 1.2.3. One cool feature I've added to it is a delegate method that will be called when Core Data has loaded everything from the database. Not a huge thing but it's been driving me round the bend. I'll also be updating the Rule Editor I released a while ago with some bug fixes

And now for the big announcement:

Code Collector 1.1: Code Collector has been far more popular that I could've imagined when I wrote it as a simple project almost 11 months ago. In that time I've got a lot of feedback about what people want to see and the general consensus has been: groups. So I'm pleased to announce that Code Collector 1.1 does in fact support groups. On top of that it supports the ability to choose the licence and language that the snippet is in, along with improved syntax colouring. I'm hoping to have this out in about 2 weeks time and as with 1.0 it will still be freeware...

However, there is one more thing. I realised that if I was to spend time on Code Collector, I'd need some sort of incentive. While it's nice seeing lots of people using it, I'm aiming to make money in this business and as such should focus most of my time on apps that make money, such as Minim. So there was only one obvious conclusion to this:

Code Collector Pro 1.0: Code Collector Pro will take Code Collector beyond what it could ever have been just being a freeware side project. It will be shareware and cost €20, and as it shares the same code base as Code Collector the freeware version will benefit from many of the core improvements I put in. "But..", I hear you ask, "what will Pro have to warrant my giving you €20 of my hard earned money". The simple answer is: more. The slightly less simple answer: smart groups, tags, textmate bundle support, customisable code licence support, customisable syntax colouring and better export options. I'll have more (and screenshots!) for you later in the week.
