Description

.merlin is an Adobe AIR based utility. If you’re like me, and have a thousands of mis-labeled fonts scattered in endless folders, this utility is for you. I had a folder with roughly 7000 fonts, it would bring Windows to a halt just opening the folder. I also had a lot of duplicate fonts because they were all labeled incorrectly.

This utility will extract the actual font name, and rename the file based off of that. Then put that font into a folder of the first letter. So Arial would go in the “a” folder. While it’s processing fonts, it will display which font is being processed. Below the progress bar will update with the current font of the total being processed (ie. 15 of 200). If for some reason .merlin runs into any errors, it will stop processing fonts and report the specific font it had a problem with.

Some of the options you can configure for processing is to move, rename, or delete files. Each has a check box to enable or disable each.

Features

  • Read OTF font files.
  • Read TTF font files.
  • Read Type1 (AFM, PFM, PFB, INF) font files.
  • Auto-update capability

Please upgrade your Flash Player This is the content that would be shown if the user does not have Flash Player 9.0.115 or higher installed.

What’s New

  • Fixed issue #-, exported JSON broken when used via command flags
  • Fixed issue #21, booleans not being saved properly

Description

.minerva is an Adobe AIR based utility. It is capable of reading and writing AS2 (AMF0) and AS3 (AMF3) Shared Objects (.sol Files). It is also capable of reformatting JavaScript that has been optimized. An example of optimized JavaScript is JavaScript that has all the line breaks removed in order to reduce file size. Thus reducing the entire script to a single line. While good for file size, it’s hard on readability. .minerva returns the code back to it’s formatted form.

Features

  • Read/Write AS3 Shared Objects – Capable of reading/writing Flash 9 and newer .sol files.
  • Read/Write AS2 Shared Objects – Capable of reading/writing Flash 8 and older .sol files.
  • Reformat JavaScript – This is a bit of a random feature I added in becuase I didn’t feel like making an entire application for this feature. When you run across compressed JavaScript, it’s a pain to read. What this allows you to do is return that compressed (often one-lined) JavaScript back into formatted and legible text. Beautify Javascript
  • Auto-update capability
  • JSON Export
  • Command Line Actions – Export JSON of a SOL file directly from the command line. Available commands are ‘json-export’ and ‘exit’. ‘json-export’ will immediately export the file url passed, and ‘exit’ will auto exit the program after exporting. Example: ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\Course Vector\minerva\minerva.exe” C:\Users\username\Desktop\myLSO.sol json-export exit’. The exported JSON file will be placed in the same folder and be the same name with a JSON extension (i.e. ‘myLSO.sol.json’)

Description

SideShow is an AIR based FLV player. Based on TempoLite, it’s capable of playing FLVs, MP4s, or really whatever Flash Player is capable of. SideShow currently supports the following file types: flv, mp4, m4v, m4a, 3gp, mov, f4v, f4p, f4a, f4b, mp3. The UI is based on Sasami2K, a fantastic video player built years and years ago. Sasami2K is no longer actively developed (latest was in 2001) so I took it upon myself to revive my own version in the form of SideShow.
