MarsEdit 1.1 public beta
Ranchero Software has released the first public beta of MarsEdit 1.1, their popular weblog editor. You can download the beta here.
MarsEdit is a weblog editor for Mac OS X that makes weblog writing like writing email—with spell-checking, drafts, multiple windows, and even AppleScript support.
It works with various weblog systems: Blosxom, Conversant, Manila, Movable Type, Radio UserLand, TypePad, WordPress, and others.
New features in 1.1:
[list]
[*] Transparency for text editing windows.
[*] Titles for Blogger weblogs.
[*] Text formatting filter popup menu in the preview window.
[*] Choose edit-with external editor.
[*] HTTP authentication username and password settings. (As distinct from API username and password.)
[*] Technorati tags.
[*] Date editing.
[*] Enclosures support—for systems that support it, you can attach an enclosure (including a podcast) to a post.
[*] Specify number of posts to download (it can now be greater than 30).
[*] New keyboard shortcuts—see the new Post menu.
[*] Bug fixes (including a commonly-reported whitespace-stripping bug).
