This is just a quick notifier that we just released Ulysses 2.0.4 and Ulysses core 2.0.4. Both versions bring some minor bug fixes, but also solve an issue we just recently understood completely. If you have the recent items on Snow Leopard deactivated (maybe also by accident), Ulysses now performs all projects saves correctly again!
Have a nice weekend, as so will I!

Hey folks,
recently it has been hard to miss that we are developing Ulysses Mobile. There have been some pictures and videos around. This might have wetted your teeth… But now we want you to get your hands on the nearly finished version — as an exclusive beta tester!
So what do you need?
- An iPhone or an iPod touch with at least OS 3.0
- Some good use for an semantic text editor on the go
- A little tolerance to bugs and quirks.
- Warmheartedness and stuff …
Wanna participate? Just send your application to ulysses@the-soulmen.com, and make sure to include some information about the type of device (iPhone/iPod) and the installed system. We have not yet decided how many people will participate, nor do we know when we’ll start exactly, but it might still happen this week :)
Update: Wow, the response was overwhelming! We do now have enough beta testers for Ulysses Mobile. Thank you to everyone who applied!
Have fun,
Max

Today I was skimming through a bunch of iPhone mockups on my desktop and rediscovered some old app concepts. They’re mostly minimal in nature, and if we had the time and resources we would just code them up and try to release them on the App Store for free.
Well, we have neither, so I decided to share some of these ideas on this blog rather than trying to catch a new coder and convince him to create non-profit two-minute distractions. ;)
So here I go, first up: The Good Vibe.

As some of may have noticed, the forums are currently down. We don’t know what happened, but it might have to do with us migrating some internal stuff to a new server. Or maybe it’s the weather.
EIther way, thank god it’s saturday, haha, so we’ll be back up and running in no time sometime later this weekend. I guess. Dunno, because I don’t even know what happened.
Stay with us.
UPDATE: Forums are back.

The above is a screenshot of a recent build of Ulysses Mobile. The semantic editing depicted here works just as it does in the desktop version — paragraphs get colored automatically based on a prefix.
Problem: It’s a hack. So take it as a proof-of-concept.
We’re quite exited, however.
(it works! it works!)

We have just released Ulysses 2.0.2 via the internal updater Sparkle. This update fixes a couple of smaller issues and bugs, many of them caused by Mac OS X 10.6, Snow Leopard. We are also adding two more languages to Ulysses: Spanish and Norwegian — thanks to Victor M. Solano and Tellef Kvifte!
To get a detailed list of all changes, see the version history. You may directly download the new versions from here:
Update: I forgot to mention that this update also finally fixes the registration problems under Mac OS 10.4 Tiger.
