Wow. That's the date of the last post announcing the release of XBit 1.0.5. I guess that means it was overdue for an update then. Well, it's available now from the <a href="http://zenvilla.com/" rel="self">ZenVilla</a> home page.<br /><br />What's new you ask? This version will properly display files that are saved out of the Leopard version of Apple Mail. I've also moved the whole project over from Mac OS X 10.2 to 10.5 so that I can use the latest and greatest tools, by which I mean, Xcode and <a href="http://macromates.com/" rel="self" title="The best text editor with the worst icon...">TextMate</a>. That has the unfortunate side effect of causing XBit to require 10.5 at this point. I haven't really looked at enabling support for 10.4 and I'm not sure if I will bother with that since the main change in this release has to do with 10.5 anyway. Version 1.0.5 will still work fine for anyone who isn't on Apple's latest and greatest. Oh yes, and it's a Universal Binary now!<br /><br />So here's to timely updates.]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>XBit 1.0.5 Released</title><dc:creator>Kevin LaCoste</dc:creator><dc:subject>News</dc:subject><dc:date>2006-09-17T02:14:00+09:00</dc:date><link>http://zenvilla.com/news/files/xbit-105-released.php#unique-entry-id-10</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://zenvilla.com/news/files/xbit-105-released.php#unique-entry-id-10</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[There&rsquo;s a new minor update to XBit available <a href="../index.php" rel="self" title="Home">here</a>. It updates the scripts used to access the TidBITS FTP server so that they should be pretty much &ldquo;future proof&rdquo; from here on out.<br />]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>XBit 1.0.3 Released</title><dc:creator>Kevin LaCoste</dc:creator><dc:subject>News</dc:subject><dc:date>2005-05-29T18:24:00+09:00</dc:date><link>http://zenvilla.com/news/files/xbit-103-released.php#unique-entry-id-9</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://zenvilla.com/news/files/xbit-103-released.php#unique-entry-id-9</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[This release addresses the problem with registration codes under Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger). If you haven&rsquo;t yet updated to Tiger there is no rush for you to install this release but please do so before submitting new bugs.

Hopefully this weekend if all goes well.<br /><br />In the meantime, please continue to use XBit in unregistered mode with a clear and guilt free conscience! Unless, of course, you haven&rsquo;t registered. In that case, we hope you feel at least a slight twinge of guilt.<br />]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Tiger Compatibility</title><dc:creator>Kevin LaCoste</dc:creator><dc:subject>News</dc:subject><dc:date>2005-04-30T17:35:00+09:00</dc:date><link>http://zenvilla.com/news/files/tiger-compatibility.php#unique-entry-id-7</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://zenvilla.com/news/files/tiger-compatibility.php#unique-entry-id-7</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[Now that Tiger is upon us you might be wondering if XBit will need an update or not. Unfortunately, we can&rsquo;t yet provide that information as we do not yet have access to Tiger. Hopefully this week will see us with Tiger in our hot little hands and any conflicts or problems addressed shortly thereafter. In the interim, we suggest making a backup of the data folder, located here&hellip;<br /><br />&ldquo;~/Library/Application Support/XBit&rdquo;<br /><br />The easiest way to do this is to right click on the folder and select &ldquo;Create Archive of XBit&rdquo; from the resulting contextual menu.<br /><br />Please report any Tiger related problems to bugs at this domain.<br />]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>XBit 1.0.2 Released</title><dc:creator>Kevin LaCoste</dc:creator><dc:subject>News</dc:subject><dc:date>2005-01-17T00:05:00+09:00</dc:date><link>http://zenvilla.com/news/files/xbit-102-released.php#unique-entry-id-6</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://zenvilla.com/news/files/xbit-102-released.php#unique-entry-id-6</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[This is a bug fix release that addresses a single issue. XBit was failing to download new issues of TidBITS from calendar year 2005. We have found the offending bug and squashed it!

The last few issues (from #753) have been posted and XBit has no trouble downloading them.<br /><br />We are still considering how to deal with this in the future should it happen again. Suggestions on how you would like to XBit to behave in this situation are welcome.

The difference being that the mailing list will be used strictly to announce version updates to our software. Any such announcements will also be seen on this page so if you live and die by your aggregator, no worries. If, however, you would like to sign up for the mailing list, just pop over to the <a href="../index.php" rel="self" title="Home">front page</a> and look for the little form at the bottom.<br />]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Trouble Downloading New TidBITS Issues</title><dc:creator>Kevin LaCoste</dc:creator><dc:subject>News</dc:subject><dc:date>2004-10-20T11:36:00+09:00</dc:date><link>http://zenvilla.com/news/files/issue-trouble.php#unique-entry-id-1</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://zenvilla.com/news/files/issue-trouble.php#unique-entry-id-1</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[Well it seems the folks over at TidBITS are having some trouble with their FTP server and as a result, XBit is downloading empty files from them. XBit then chooses not to display the issues in the interface when it sees them as having no content. The problem is that there is no feedback telling you what happened. This is currently a problem for issues <a href="http://zenvilla.com/xbit/issues/TidBITSxx750_11-Oct-04.etx" rel="self">#750</a> and <a href="http://zenvilla.com/xbit/issues/TidBITSxx751_18-Oct-04.etx" rel="self">#751</a>.<br /><br />There is an easy workaround for this. As mentioned in the Read Me, just manually copy the issues into the the following folder within your home folder&hellip;<br /><br />&ldquo;~/Library/Application Support/XBit/TidBITS&rdquo;<br /><br />The issues can be saved out of your email program or grabbed from the links above. Option click those links to have them download to your computer.<br />]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Hello World</title><dc:creator>Kevin LaCoste</dc:creator><dc:subject>News</dc:subject><dc:date>2004-10-19T14:04:00+09:00</dc:date><link>http://zenvilla.com/news/files/hello-world.php#unique-entry-id-0</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://zenvilla.com/news/files/hello-world.php#unique-entry-id-0</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[Welcome to the ZenVilla News blog!
