Hamachi for Mac OS X by Thom McGrath
After being supremely upset with the current options for using Hamachi on Mac OS X, and the difficultly of getting it installed in the first place, I set out to solve every issue I've ever had with Hamachi on the Mac. At least, as much as is possible.
It's important to note that I am NOT an official developer for LogMeIn, and this project may not see the light of day due to some issues I cannot yet speak about.
But if this does work out... damn... Hamachi on Mac worries are over.

Some insight about REALbasic toolbars by Thom McGrath
So upon looking into a new rewrite of HIToolbar, I've wanted to hit at least one of two incredible features: controls-in-toolbars and cross-platform toolbars.
Focusing on the latter in this post, I said to myself "If REAL Software can do it, then there is no reason why my class cannot do the same."
This statement, as it turns out, is incorrect.

HIToolbar Crash Situation by Thom McGrath
One of my users of HIToolbar has brought a crash to my attention, forwarded from one of his users. I'm at a loss for the reason, and the developer himself has been unable to replicate the crash. However, we do have a crash log from the user. If anything, this article should be to make other users of HIToolbar aware of the situation, if not solve the problem.
