I put my apps in the Application folder. I just don't put anything else there. If I used FFview, I would put the app in the Applications folder, and throw the rest away.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The rest of the stuff looks like scripts and extras (and a bunch of text files). That's what I'm wondering about.

ita, I just made a folder called "FFView" in my Applications folder, and dragged all the stuff into it. I doubt that the extra stuff is necessary, but I just left it there.
I put all my applications in the Applications folder, and just made an alias for the dock for things I run most often.

Hmmph. FFView doesn't like me very much. Shouldn't there be a way I can double click on a cbz and have it come up automatically? And it starts with the last page (and then continues to the first), or at least it has these first three issues.

FFView isn't big with the double-clicking on the cbz file to open it; that only seems to work when I haven't opened the application yet. Otherwise, I have to use the File menu (or the keyboard shortcut) to open a cbz.

Now, now I need a text editor -- one with syntax highlighting would be good, but it's mostly FTP open and save I need. A Mac version of UltraEdit or Crimson Editor is what I'm thinking of.
Any suggestions?

A lot of long-time Mac users swear by BBedit.
I use Emacs, though, so what do I know.

Thanks Tom (and Steph, for the FFview). I'm grabbing the 30 day version right now.
I also grabbed Panda for the main box. Not only is the version I could find a 30 day eval, it's desperately chatty.

BBEdit has syntax highlighting and FTP/SFTP file opening. Highly recommended. It has a 30-day demo.

Hey. New board.
TextWrangler, the free lighter editor by the people of BBEdit, does everything I need. Make sure you need more before dishing out the green for the big guy.
It appears to have FTP open, though I've never tried it out.
