I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but Text edit now has a 'Complete' function - Alt-Esc. Start typing a word, hit that key combo, and you get a dropdown list of words that start with what you typed. Great for long words that you're not sure how to spell.
This is nice, but I think it should be automatic. Like how Office does it. No key combo.
I personally hate the auto-complete of Office, and even Safari's address bar. Basically, it's the difference between giving you options based on your input and trying to guess what you want. Microsoft thinks that "smart" means "predicting" or "guessing," if based on patterns. Apple usually (with notable exceptions) tries to offer avenues to take from the point you're at rather than trying to predict what road you'll take.
Ideally, auto-complete and search functions would incorporate pattern-finding to assign priority to those options but stop short of assuming those patterns are always followed. Actually, isn't that what the search/filter framework in Panther does?
Yes but it was achly 6c115 b released. basacly tydeing up the code a bit. basacly a rush job was nevere susposto become gm but a last seconed disision they decided to. almost 2 months befor it shiped to. hah

sorry, but it's like I'm reading the voice over from an old godzilla movie or something. no offence, Randy
AES gives you 3.4 x 1038 possible 128-bit keys. In comparison, the Digital Encryption Standard (DES) keys are a mere 56 bits long, which means there are approximately 7.2 x 1016 possible DES keys. Thus, there are on the order of 1021 times more possible AES 128-bit keys than DES 56-bit keys. Assuming that one could build a machine that could recover a DES key in a second, it would take that machine approximately 149 trillion years to crack a 128-bit AES key."
Looks like some superscripts got lost in the web conversion. I hope they fix it before too long.
Previous GM builds have been posted to ADC. And while I do expect a copy of Panther will be mailed to me, I also expect that it will be posted online as well.
This is one of the many reasons to plunk down the $$ for ADC.

Wrong.
6C115b had ONE change over 6C115: a correction in a read-me file. No code was changed.

no particular reason i'm asking, just wondering.

You have to take into account that 128 bit = 3.40282367 X 10^38 where a 56 bit key is "only" equal to 7.2057594 X 10^16.
So the fact that there are more 56 bit keys doesn't really matter because the keys themselves are not nearly as big.

Huh? The number of bits in the key determines how many possible values there are. 128-bits vs 56-bits means ~10^22 times as many keys.

I Feel sorry for anyone that went back and redownloaded it for a read me file
