- RegOrganizer 3.1: Powerful weapon in safe hands — Microsoft Windows Registry is an interesting and useful, but unappreciated thing. Tons of wonderful system enhancements could be achieved without any «special» software: All you would need in the majority of cases is to know, which value in the registry is to be changed, and where it is hidden. Or, as a very good alternative, you would have to use software, with which your registry became…
- Database Tour Pro 5.1.0.715. Manage your database with variety of functions! — For a software developer, a «Swiss knife»-style tool can be incredibly useful, but only when that?s the «right» tool. The problem is, nobody can tell you exactly, how to determine whether a tool is «right». A right tool must be full-featured, but it must not be overloaded with features; a right tool must have laconic and functional interface, but it must be easy to learn and understand…
- InterBase/Firebird Development Studio 5.1.3. Database Designer. — There is an amazing integrated suite for working with Interbase and Firebird, obviously named InterBase/Firebird Development Studio. It is really brilliant in all of its aspects and components, but I want to speak about the «first between equals» — the Database Designer component. IB/FB Development Studio’s Database Designer is a many-sided crystal. It serves as: Full-fledged visual ER diagram…
- www-Sharp 1.42, Exciting IDE for Web and Desktop — Speaking on www-Sharp IDE, I’m in a big trouble. Not because the software is bad or strange; it’s just the other way around: it has so many of so well designed and coupled capabilities that I still can’t believe all of that is real. But it is! Look here: www-Sharp is a tool for the client-side and/or server-side Web development, AS WELL as for the development of HTML-based…

- 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. Unfortunately, simple decompilation tools give a very poor result which is hard to read…
- AntiPlagiarist 1.8, Where's Your Sources? — Digital century and digital style of work bring new possibilities to all of us, but they also bring new problems. 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*. Scientific works and home works, magazine articles and blogposts, even entire chapters in serious technical books are shamelessly copied…
- Virtual Music Composer 3.0 PRO, A Source For Inspiration — Regardless of how «intellectual» you think your computer is, you can’t disagree that today’s software programmers have many smart ideas, useful for the most of us. 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…
- Tidycode Pl/Sql Formatter 2.4.2, Making It Pretty — This utility can seem «just a small helper», but detailed analysis can say you it is really smart and really helpful (I’ll even say indispensable) for almost any database programmer. Its functionality can be easily guessed by name: it just formats PL/SQL code (as well as plain good SQL), and the way he does it can be characterized as «just right». OK, then WHAT is right about Tidycode…
