Name Mangler 2.1.1 released

Please check for updates in Name Mangler (in Prefs > Updates), as we just released version 2.1.1 with one new feature and one important bug fix:

  • New ‘shuffle’ mode (Command-S in Sort pop-up) to sequentially but randomly modify filenames; useful for images for a picture frame, for instance.
  • Fixed permissions issues for users running on non-admin accounts. Thanks to Fr. Augustine Hoa Tran and Neil Massello for reporting this problem.

Thanks to Sparkle, you should be able to update quickly and easily from within the app. If this doesn’t work, please let me know. Alternatively, you can still use the download link on the Name Mangler product page, of course!

    You better inform people about your good intentions here quickly:

    Thanks for the heads-up; I posted a reply, though I doubt it will affect anyone’s opinions.

    -rob.

    I’ve just strolled over to MacUpdate.com and Versiontracker.com, leaving a few comments (w/ Nickname “Bonobo”) about Many Tricks’ latest development on the pages of some of your softwares, hoping that’s not too naïve and that it is OK with you.

    BTW I am sure that anybody can affect anybody’s opinions, given that the content gets transferred to the other side properly and in a friendly manner.

    In the Many Tricks case this seems as easy to me as the “Try it out for free” which you already communicate and especially spreading the news of Many Tricks’ rise from the ashes broadly. I for one am doing the latter, in forums and the German MacOSXpert Mailing Lists, accessible through my (eye bleeding, German) website.

    [OT] content: Now if only I knew how to attach an Avatar image to my comments here.

    Tom:

    Go gravatar.com and register with the same email address you used here. Pick an image there, and it will magically show here.

    -rob.

    It would be the perfect rename app if it have bigger thumbnails of images. It´s difficult to sort dragging in the list if images are too similar.

    Anyway, congratulations for your work.
