HeadsUp

Download HeadsUp-0.9.dmg.

HeadsUp is now a standalone application!

If you have the old preference pane installed, you’ll probably want to remove
it first.

There’s more to come. I’d like to make an option to disable the status menu
item, and to re-enable starting HeadsUp at login. For now, though, it’s time to
ship it!

Changelog

• HeadsUp is a standalone application, not a preference pane.
• No more RubyCocoa, just straight-up Objective-C.
• Option to start at login temporarily removed.
• Font changed from Monaco to Menlo.

Changelog

• Snow Leopard compatibility

Download HeadsUp-0.2.2.dmg.

I made an icon!

And strings containing tabs should be displayed properly now, without awkward line-wrapping.

Features

• An icon!
• Handle tabs gracefully.

Download HeadsUp-0.2.1.dmg.

This is a quick bugfix release. Thanks to Michael Hale, HeadsUp now runs on Leopard as well as Tiger. (I’ll upgrade one of these days…)

Download HeadsUp-0.2.0.dmg.

This release sees a cleaner UI in the preference pane and automatic text window resizing.

After updating, you should stop and start HeadsUp.

Features

• Window sizes are now completely based on (and refreshed with) their text contents; no more string-padding / right-alignment hacks!
• Start/Stop now also sets/forgets Start at Login. (No sense having 2 things to click when 1 will suffice.)
• Removed option for automatic Sparkle updates. (Chose a default: they’re turned off.)
