Web Entourage: Note about May Dev Tools
- I recommend not installing Apple's May developer tools before Mac OS X version 10.1.5 is released (if you don't have to). Certain BlogApp features will not function.

Randomness v1.4.1
- This AppleScript Studio program has three functions. The first is a name-picker where the user enters a list of names and the program will draw one at random. Lists can be saved and loaded as well. The second function generates random numbers within a specified range and the third function generates a string of random numbers within a specified range. this version removes the resize- and close- button functionality of the main window. Also maps the "Save List" and "Load List" buttons to cmd-s and cmd-o keyboard commands. [MacScripter.net]

X-Quotient v1.3.4
- This AppleScript Studio program will output the quotient of a division equation for a user-specified number of places, from just a few to up to several thousand, or more. There is an on-screen text area where the output will appear, and an option to export to a text file. This version fixes a problem where the last digit of a quotient was repeated at the end of every output. [MacScripter.net]
