TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – It’s getting hotter here in the Tokyo area while it rains quite a bit at the same time. Anyway, I just submitted a new desktop application called TextJungler 2 to Mac App Store several minutes ago.

When you write code to develop an iPhone app or a desktop application, you really need a plain text editor such that you can quickly edit lines of code. I used to use TextEdit to edit code. But that was a decade ago. TextJungler 2 is one of those plain text editors that let you change the text color, text size, font family, font typeface, background quickly with a drop-down menu.   Continue reading →

TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – I feel like it’s been many months since the last, long winter was ongoing. My favorite summer is arriving to the Tokyo area soon. Anyway, I just submitted a new desktop application called Remind Me Quick to Mac App Store a while ago.

Pretty much every day, I use an electricity-powered sandwich maker to make a grilled sandwich with cheese in it. After forgetting to turn off the power a few times and nearly burning my sandwiches, I’ve decided to make a simple desktop application to remind myself of not forgetting to turn off the switch in 5 minutes. So I’ve spent two hours and then another some 36 hours enhancing it, and voila! It’s Remind Me Quick.

Remind Me Quick is very simple to use. Just select a wait time with a drop-down menu. And click on the Remind me button. And it will show you the remaining time. Then, what!? Just concentrate on other things. When the time finally comes, Remind Me Quick will remind you of an event with a flashing screen and a sound. See Settings under Remind Me Quick to control over how to remind you of an event with or without a flashing screen and a sound.   Continue reading →

TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – The cold weather is here. We still have three weeks to go past the winter solstice. Anyway, the first application of this month is ready for submission to Mac App Store. This new release is called Tower Pins.

Tower Pins is a desktop application that lets you post pins over a map in accordance with geographic coordinates from a CSV dataset you select. You can use Tower Pins to track the movement of a cellular phone by connecting pins with lines. You can also circle individual pins with a color you select.  Continue reading →

TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – It has been very cool for the past 4 or 5 days because of a typhoon. Now, it’s gone, and the scorching heat is back. Meanwhile, I’m ready to announce a new software title for macOS. This new software release to Mac App Store is called CutOut 3 Essential.

CutOut 3 Essential is the 3rd edition of a desktop application that lets you clip an area of an image with a bezier curve path you select. Move the image here and there with your mouse pointer to set a cutout area. Then click on the cutout button to make a cutout.   Continue reading →

TOKYO (Tom Bluewater) – I have had double releases twice for the past four weeks. Today, no… I only have one software title to release. This new software submission to Mac App Store is called LittleCal 3.

It’s been more than 14 years since I released the first version of LittleCal. Now, it’s been developed from scratch with the SwiftUI framework.   Continue reading →
