Some MacOS X software

Some MacOS X software I downloaded today:
Mellel, a word processor. Cheap (only $30), and looks pretty feature-rich. Also small and quick. I was initially interested because one of the screenshots made it look like it had an outline mode, but now that I’ve downloaded the thing I can’t figure out how to get that outline thing happening. So I probably won’t actually be buying it. But man, check out that icon!
TinkerTool, latest version. Not that I really need it, since I’ve still got all my prefs from the time I ran it on Jaguar.
DragThing. Not sure if I’m actually gonna use it, but I figured I might as well see, since I can upgrade cheap as a registered user of an earlier version.
The modern way of bipping about one’s filesystem seems to involve using adaptive utilities that learn your favored abbreviations, like LaunchBar or the very cool though under-documented freeware Quicksilver.
