Muchos nos encontramos a la hora de comprar un portátil, que el espacio en el disco duro en un principio nos parece suficiente, pero a lo largo del tiempo lo llenamos de contenido multimedia (series, películas, películas iMovie, fotografías, pdfs, etc..). Claro que el disco duro ya se nos queda pequeño de inmediato y tenemos que estar haciendo uso de discos duros externos, lo cual a veces es engorroso el tener que cargar con ellos a todas partes.

Una solución es comprimir los directorios que menos usemos y volverlos a descomprimir cuando nos hagan falta, ¿no? Pero esta solución es algo incomoda y menos cuando necesitamos los datos rápidamente y la descompresión y compresión puede ser eterna (con grandes datos, como máquinas virtuales por ejemplo).

Hace poco me hice con una licencia de Squeeze, es una utilidad que te permite comprimir/descomprimir en tiempo real y transparente al usuario, las carpetas que selecciones. Y la verdad es que se nota el ahorro de espacio en disco y sin tener ficheros .zip por todas partes.

Aquí podemos ver trabajando a Squeeze mientra comprime carpetas, pudiendo seguir trabajando en las mismas mientras lo realiza.

En la ventana de la derecha podemos ver la ventana del programa Squeeze trabajando. Solo tenemos que arrastrar y soltar las carpetas que queramos comprimir. Seguiremos viendolas en el Finder como si no estuvieran comprimidas.

En la columna “Savings” vemos el espacio ahorrado por carpetas (incluye las sub-carpetas de las mismas).

Abajo veremos el total de espacio ahorrado hasta el momento.

La transparencia para Time Machine es total, con lo que si realizamos copias de seguridad de vez en cuando (como debe ser), pues siempre podremos recuperar algún documento o fichero con Time Machine sin problema alguno.

Powerful editing, publishing and real-time previewing in a sexy, streamlined app makes any hand-coding Web developer more productive. Espresso shares its DNA with CSSEdit, our award-winning style sheet editor. Whereas CSSEdit made CSS quick and fun, Espresso looks to do the same with the entire Web development workflow.

Instead of cramping a bunch of mini-apps together, Espresso aims to focus Web development workflows into one streamlined app. Projects start out with an organized one-window workspace, providing instant access to files, publishing and more. From there, you have complete freedom in customizing your environment: quickly search for files, reorder often-used pages or drag off tabs into their own window.

What’s New in this Version
- Revamped Workspace
- Projects
- Find in Project
- Image Preview

The true essence of adventure is captured in this second game inspired by renowned author Jules Verne. In this first-person survival adventure, players will encounter recognisable locations from the famous novel, including the granite house, the volcano and the Nautilus. However, Return to Mysterious Island goes beyond Jules Verne’s storytelling as players take on the role of Mina, a courageous young woman on a solo round-the-world sailing expedition.

In your quest for survival using logic, discovery, creative inventory management, and elements of the supernatural, the adventure unfolds across splendid photorealistic pre-rendered vistas. Intuitive puzzle challenges and vast exploration of the lush tropical landscapes of the island, all combine for a brilliantly executed adventure game.

Round-the-world saling expedition… Ship wrecked on a deserted island.. The ghost of Captain Nemo… The quest for survival… Caught in a tremendous storm, Mina, our heroine, becomes stranded on the shores of a wild and apparently uninhabited island. As she explores her new surrounding, she uncovers artifacts, living spaces and technologies left behind by the people who came before her to this uncharted island.

System Requirements

  • Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later.
