Sidenote is a neat little program that puts a slide-out notepad on the side of your screen. Throw the mouse into the edge of the screen, and there's the notepad. You really have to try it to get the idea. http://www.chatelp.org/?s=Sidenote I use Fire for IM/chat. http://fire.sf.net/ Most of the other stuff I use (that didn't come with my iBook) is a bit esoteric. NeoOffice is probably the most well-known; I use it for opening Word docs before I transform them to groff or XML. I spent a lot more time than most people in Terminal, smacking text around with various scripts. -- Larry Kollar k o l l a r @ a l l t e l . n e t "The hardest part of all this is the part that requires thinking." -- Paul Tyson, on xml-doc -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
