So long as no really annoying bugs are found in the next few days, today’s release will become 1.7 final.

Simple Comic 1.7 Window Auto Resize
Monday, March 22nd, 2010
I posted release candidate 2 an hour or so ago. Along with the various bug fixes, the window auto-resize logic was changed. With window auto-resize enabled SC makes the window conform to the displayed pages’ dimensions. Previously on every page turn the window would maximize itself constrained by screen and page size.
This [...]
1.7 Release
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010
The Simple Comic 1.7 release candidate will be released tomorrow morning with final following in the next week or so.
2.0 should be interesting as I would like to try and cut SC to the bone and rethink some of the its basic interface elements.
Simple Comic 1.6.2+
Thursday, July 31st, 2008
I am currently working on back porting quite a bit of 1.7 into the 1.6 branch. Solid archive support and some full screen interface elements are all that really need work now.
1.6.2 will be released once a few localizations are completed with 1.6.3+ being released as more hit my inbox.
Hard Paths and BDAlias
Saturday, May 10th, 2008
Until recently Simple Comic has relied on hard paths to find files for its session restore system. With the advent of a more comprehensive bookmark manager I felt the need to look into a less fragile way of locating files. Simple Comic now uses BDAlias, which is a wrapper class for OS-X’s alias manager.
So what [...]
Simple Comic 2.0
Tuesday, April 29th, 2008
I have begun active development of Simple Comic again.
Aside from some tweaking the only features I really want to add are a decent persistent bookmarking system and some nice Core Animation page transitions.
If anyone wants additional features post em’ here before SC reaches release candidate status.
EDIT: Just finished a basic implementation of the bookmarking system.
cbr Quick Look Plugin
Wednesday, December 5th, 2007
Just to let folks know, the most recent beta of Simple Comic contains a Quick Look module that can now view cbr files. Make sure you delete the old cbz only QuickComic plugin from your library directory.
Changes to Quicklook plug-in
Wednesday, November 28th, 2007
I did a quick edit to my QuickLook plug-in to make it work with cbz files exclusively.
For those that don’t know, cbz is an extension used to identify comic zip files. This change allows users to install other zip QuickLook plugins without worrying about conflicts.
The new version can be downloaded here: Link
Users of Simple Comic should probably [...]
Simple Comic 1.6.1
Tuesday, November 13th, 2007
Well I neglected to post a blog entry for the release of 1.6. So this one will have to suffice for 1.6 and 1.6.1.
In any case here it is.Download 1.6.1
The localizers really knocked themselves out getting all the changes I made in 1.6 translated for 1.6.1. A round of applause for all of them.
If you [...]
QuickLook plug-in for zip files
Monday, November 12th, 2007
To get used to the QuickLook plug-in architecture I did what everyone seems to be doing. Namely write a zip inspection module. The mysterious and prolific Hetima has already created one which is available here.
So anyway my plugin uses Hetima’s unzip framework to inspect the contents of any given zip/cbz, ignoring everything but [...]
