7 Free Programs For Mac OS X That I Find Useful
I use these 7 free programs for Mac OS X often:
- VLC - this is probably the only video player you will ever need for Mac OS X.
- BBEdit Lite - an excellent and powerful text editor. Two things I really like about BBEdit are find and replace with escape symboles (i.e. find \r and replace with ;), and its ability to handle huge text files.
- Fugu - An SFTP, SCP and SSH frontend. This makes uploading files to some linux servers feel like FTP.
- Longhand - my favorite calculator. Type an expression and it is instantly evaluated. There are no inefficient buttons. Its a little bit slow and buggy though.
- Abcissca - a very powerful graphing program capable of outputing print-quality graphs as EPS. This is ideal for use with LaTeX.
- photo Drop - this utility quickly creates mini-applications that perform batch image conversions by drag and drop.
- Transmission - A bittorrent client that works well and is simple and elegant.
