Megazoomer: Full-screen mode for Cocoa apps
Merlin Mann | Jul 5 2006
Speaking of full-screen functionality, lots of people have been writing to mention Megazoomer, a free, SIMBL-based bundle that fakes full-screen mode within any Cocoa app, including Safari and Textmate.
It should be great to have this in Textmate, whose functional depth you lose working in an app like WriteRoom. Haven't had time to play with Megazoomer much yet, but it certainly looks promising. [ thanks to lots of people for sending this one ] 9 Comments

Megazoomer is broken (at least on Intel macs, can't speak for other models.) If you're considering using it for more than just peeking at the functionality, just skip it. iSquint, Visial Hub, VLC, Textmate, Mail, Parallels, Safari and others all have problems running from the minor (textmate's blogging bundle doesn't work) to major (crashes in safari and Mail sometimes needs to be quit and restarted because it gets stuck.) My ignorant guess is that it has untrapped NS exceptions that it lets bubble up. I really want it to work right but it just doesn't right now. I've mailed the author but have not got a reply yet. » POSTED IN:
