I do almost all my scripting in BBEdit on the Mac (although everything runs on Linux.) David McCusker just greatly improved my life by pointing out the MPW font. If you code on the Mac, do yourself a big favor and download this font right now:

Thanks!
Walt Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal has a review of the handspring Treo, a combo cell phone, PDA, email/SMS/webrowser due out early 2002. Sweet. Here's The Treo page at handspring.com, and here's the /. thread this all came from.

Couldn't sleep last night. Layed in bed thinking about different page caching schemes. That may not sound like fun, but it actually wasn't too bad. I think I came up with a solution. Hopefully this weekend I can make good progress on the new preference setting interface. This is going to be my first attempt to make everything usable by someone who hasn't been using the system all along. Traditionally I'm not very good at that sort of thing, but I have some hope for this attempt. I'm trying to get something ready for the first of the year, but that's just a loose date. We'll see how much free time December allows.
