- PolyEdit 5.0 Worder than Word — PolyEdit can be called a «new word» (in some sense) in the word processing software. It provides rich functionality, pretty and consistent user interface and some non-trivial but very useful, tricky capabilities. The small setup file (only 1.5 MB to download) would really surprise you after the installation; all of the common features for the complex document editing that we are used to are here. Compare the program with…
- EymBarcodeReader.ocx Decode Bar Code — Barcodes (the approach to encoding data in black-and-white bars) are widely used since their invention in the middle of the XXth century.

Is there a way to edit a code block without having to run those heavy development…
- Dis# 3.1.1, Back To Sources — The great feature of bytecode-based languages, and, namely, .NET assemblies, is a possibility to «return to source code» at any time. Assembly decompilation is a great tool to understand «how something works», either some general algorithms and data structures, or internal logics of some software or components.

And new ways to solve those new problems; and new unwanted effects of those ways… And one of the most general possibilities (and a source of the problems) is *possibility to copy*.

In the area of music writing, conservative musicians tend to see the computer as a smart keyboard (sometimes way too smart); modern musicians tend to see it as a cutting table for samples and effects. Almost nobody tries to use the…
