Vicomsoft announces the release of SurfDoubler 6.6 including native support
for DSL connections using PPPoE. A new optional Connection Teaming module
is also available. Support for PPPoE allows users to transparently share
DSL connections without the need for third party software. Connection
Teaming increases aggregate Internet access bandwidth by combining multiple
simultaneous Internet connections of any type.
Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE), which provides login
functionality, has been adopted by major DSL service providers. Some
existing Internet sharing solutions are not compatible with PPPoE.
Vicomsoft offers direct PPPoE support as a standard feature in SurfDoubler,

AppMaker #12 to add several major features to its Tools Plus code generator.
This update includes support for scripting, custom multi-column lists,
NavServices, proxy icons, and overriding.
With this update, AppMaker generates scriptable applications. It generates
the 'aete' resource, and code to resolve object references, to handle
GetData and SetData events, and to create elements.
Scripting support is free. It is generated automatically from existing
DataDefs in an AppMaker project. Users don't have to do any extra work to
get scriptability because they are already specifying DataDefs for other
purposes.
This update also supports custom multi-column lists. Each row of the list
corresponds to an element of an array. Each column represents an attribute
of the array element.
The generated code now uses NavServices for the standard Open and Save file
dialogs. Window titles now display proxy icons and a file...</div></div></span>

premier 3D trimesh modeling application for MacOS.
This release introduces an important new feature: "pinned-mode texture
mapping," which allows the user to have complete control over the texture
coordinates for every point in the 3D model. This allows artists to make
more efficient use of texture memory by combining the textures for several
different parts of the model into one image.
Previously, Meshwork users who needed this level of control were forced to
use a third-party texturing application as a post-processing step. This was
cumbersome, and often meant repeating the texture mapping work whenever the
geometry changed. With the new pinned-mode texture mapping of Meshwork 1.7,
artists can meet all their texture mapping needs within one modeling
program. Meshwork can now be used to produce the type of models used such
