TUAW Tip: Screen Capture to PDF

May 18th 2007 9:02AM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

It really would be nice if Leopard brought a text-aware screenshot ability. All that information is available -- for example with Cocoa's legacy fax: message -- so I'm sure it wouldn't be too very hard to make it work. And with the imminent use of vector UI elements, having arbitrary-resolution vector screenshots would be spectacular.

Hitachi's 2.5-inch Travelstar 7K200: 200GB, 7,200 RPM, bulk encryption

Has the 300GB drive actually become available anywhere? I'd love to get my mitts on that.

Why does it only have one ear?

Terminal Tip: Command Line Calculator

Apr 24th 2007 9:39AM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

I used to use bc often, but these days I prefer using Ruby's irb or the python interactive shell. They do all the math I need, and have powerful and familiar programming models, too.

WWDC keynote scheduled for 3 hours

Apr 17th 2007 12:52PM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

How many of those hours will be dedicated to Mail 3.0's exciting newsletter templates? "And this one's really nice. Isn't that just great?"

Powered Radio Flyer trike is envy of the playground

Clearly, the creation of a dad while Mom is out of town for the weekend. It won't survive her return :)

The MPAA piracy dishonor role

Apr 2nd 2007 9:49AM on Engadget

I would think that Columbia and UCLA are probably the generators of many new "content creators" -- musicians, screenwriters, and directors that will generate the next wave of hits for the MPAA & RIAA. So really, the industry associations should be figuring out how to embrace this generational shift, rather than alienating the very folks who will one day be their lifeblood.

CUPS-PDF for OS X: Make a PDF "Printer"

Mar 23rd 2007 10:41AM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

It seriously annoys me that printing to PDF in OS X is not easily Applescriptable. It's even impervious to GUI scripting! It would seem obvious that having a facility for batch-converting documents to PDF would be a useful feature for OS X to offer.

OSXplanet: Live Desktop

Whoops, the download seems to have gone 404.

Billy Joel catalog sale on iTunes

Feb 21st 2007 2:23PM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

Is this the first time the iTunes store has had a full-length album for sale at less than $9.99? If so, it is indeed interesting; I wonder whether it points towards more variable pricing in the future.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I love my little computing companion but I often find myself missing a full sized keyboard. I have been looking at several of these portable and flexible keyboards, but I can't seem to make up my mind about which I should buy. I don't want the keyboard to be overly expensive, but I want it to be good quality. Also, how difficult is it to type on these keyboards? Thanks!"
