This is a list of applications that i can't live without. ( JUST MAC ).
The ones with a $ are not free.
-
Quicksilver
I don't have words to describe this application, but i must say, i wont use never ever again a computer without this installed. -
$Textmate
This is a text editor, the lack of a good notepad on OS X pushed me to get this ( i bought it actually ). Its simply the best text editor i've ever used. Go read the manual and you will see. -
Firefox
I Feel dumb including this one on my list since its like obvious. Its a web browser ( in case you didn't know ). -
Adium
Pretty much the "only" decent IM for mac, there are a ton, but in my opinion all of them are crap, i don't like this one either, but i have no choice. Would be awesome if you could use ichat for gtalk and msn. Just to be clear, Yahoo msn seems to be pretty cool, but i dont use that one. -
smcFanControl
If your mac is intel you should download and install this one right away. Its a little app to control your computer fan's RPM. -
$Awaken
This is kinda silly, its just an alarm. I have to put it here because its the one that wakes me up to go to work. I used to use aurora ( same but free ) , but i bought a software bundle with this app so it became stock. -
Handbreak
If you need to convert your DVDs to any given device format, this is the app. Takes a lifetime to rip, but its faster than any other ripping software. -
$Things
I've been thinking in wirte a to-do list application pretty much since college. When i tried this i just thought of sending an email to the guy who wrote it ( along with a check ) requesting the only feature missing ( at least for me ), which is the option to move the icon from the dock to the menu. -
$Transmit
Ftp client, the only one which I'm comfortable using. -
Expod
Backup files from ipods ( does not work with iphone/ipod touch ) -
Dockless
This is an app that i just use to fill my necessity of order and cleanness. It removes the app icon from the doc ( along with the menus and everything ) however, i have a bunch of quicksilver triggers that does all the nasty stuff for me. Its not useful at all, but it helps to keep my dock clean ( at least without so many icons ). -
RCDefaultApp
PrefPane to set the default app for all kind of file format. -
Perian
QuickTime component that adds native support for many popular video formats. -
Chmox
Read your CHM documents on your Mac. -
Disk Inventory X
Disk usage utility. It shows the sizes of files and folders in a special graphical way called "treemaps". -
Transmission
My Torrent client of choice.
