Applimizer/Applimiser 1.4.1
Version 1.4.1 can scan a folder for applications, shows icons in the individual view, and can handle applications with locked embedded files.

2004-06-23
Applimizer / Applimiser 1.3
With version 1.3 you can optimize embedded user interface files, i.e. the NIB files used by Cocoa applications. As their model definitions contain a lot of redundant white-space characters, there is room for improvement. Also, the string file optimization has been improved to remove redundant string pairs in Localizable.string files.

This version sports a new user interface and drag and drop from the Finder. Furthermore, it is now available in both a British English and a U.S. English version (named Applimiser or Applimizer, respectively).

Version 3.3 of TrashLater released
The updated version of TrashLater has passed my internal regression tests and has now been made available to the public. Apart from being Panther-compatible, the major news is a new face-less background client that can do all the work behind the scenes, without ever disturbing you any more.

Website redesign
The entire website presents itself in a new and modern design. As opposed to HTML 4, all pages are now XHTML-1.0 (strict), and what's more they are compliant to the standard. A modular design with cascading style sheets (CSS2) is now used; this eases the aligned formatting of all pages.

2003-10-24
Released version 3.2 of TrashLater
Version 3.2 is available immediately.

2003-10-24
Major htmlXPress update
In the course of the redesign of these web-pages, my HTML-processing utility htmlXPress (formerly known as htmlPress) underwent a major overhaul. Apart from HTML 4, it can now also handle XHTML 1.0 and even cascading style sheets! Furthermore, pages can now be tested for broken hyperlinks! The most up-to-date version is now 2.2.

SimpleText Compiler retired
Since SimpleText files have given way to the popular RTF files in Mac OS X, there is no immediate need any more for SimpleText Compiler. The project has therefore been discontinued.

2003-03-21
htmlXPress 2.0 released
This is a major upgrade. It is now fully functional for Mac OS X - since Perl is part of Darwin, a MacPerl installation is no longer required. To reflect this, htmlPress has been renamed to htmlXPress.

2002-10-15
Intermediate update for TrashLater Classic (2.3.1)

Site moved to new domain
The domain www.tredje.se is now the new home for tredje design. And about time too. A few changes were introduced as part of the move.

2002-07-31
Minor fix to htmlPress
Made a few nice changes to htmlPress which I deemed worth publishing as a minor update release. htmlPress is now version 1.5.1. Also, please note that htmlPress was previously known as "HTML Squeezer". It was renamed to avoid a name conflict with another product.

2002-07-18
htmlPress 1.5 available
My free-ware utility to compress and format HTML pages, htmlPress, has moved up to version 1.5. The latest version introduces file_rules with which settings can be configured by file-type. Depending on the file-type, you can now select a different file-creator, and switch HTML compression on or off.

2002-06-14
Online Store opened!
The Online Store is now open. Using secure channels, you can now purchase my products from these pages. This service is based on eSellerate's purchasing solution.

2002-05-20
TrashLater Classic 2.2 available
TrashLater Classic has been enhanced to allow you to buy a license directly from within the application. Upon successful purchase, the application is then automatically registered without the need to key in a confirmation code. This service is powered by eSellerate and uses the same secure online channels.

Version 2.2 of allows the specification of exception items for each folder. These items are completely ignored for our purposes. Effectively, these items are never removed by TrashLater Classic.

2002-02-17
htmlPress 1.4 available
With the latest release of htmlPress, the tool has become even more versatile. Several variables were introduced which you can override in their configuration files. One can now change the naming style of the source files and which application creator is used for the resulting HTML documents. Furthermore, as a beta-feature, the resulting source code can now be line-wrapped.

2002-01-12
htmlPress up to 1.3
In the course of redesigning these web-pages I changed htmlPress to allow for customized settings which can be stored in a separate file. Now you can define your own site-specific keywords in a configuration file right next to your HTML source files.

2001-11-09
htmlPress 1.2 in beta
This is a MacPerl script that I originally wrote to compress HTML pages down to the necessary minimum - see the source of this page for an example. In version 1.2 I have changed it to automate the process of writing HTML by adding additional shortcuts.
