SmartSVN Enterprise v6.5.3

The main features of the client:
- Several kinds of display files;
- Displays the directory containing the files unmodified;
- Filtering of files;
- Filtering by file name;
- Individual sorting file table;
- Search for files as you type name;
- Copy to clipboard the path name or URL of the selected file / folder;
- File comparison and change detection;
- Editor files.

SmartSVN is a graphical SVN client. It combines a mature user interface with the power of SVN (Subversion), providing professional version control for everyone – on Windows.

Why you should use SmartSVN

SmartSVN makes common things easy (eg switching to another branch) and complex things possible. Competing SVN clients often are limited to a minor subset of the Subversion features.

SmartSVN supports your mode of practice: either work with a highly optimized user interface or perform tasks directly from within the Windows Explorer.

SmartSVN has everything out of the box – SVN client, file compare, conflict solver and SSH client. No need for external tools.

With SmartSVN’s features and stream-lined work-flows you will save time, so licensing costs will pay off quickly.

SmartSVN runs on virtually all major operating systems. No need to learn different tools.

SmartSVN’s UI is optimized for SVN
The optimized user interface, is designed to give you the best overview over your project’s state:

* Most important files (eg conflicting, modified, missing files) – even from subdirectories – are shown on top
* You can customize the displayed file information and sort them according to your needs
* Even not available files, like deleted ones or those which are new in the repository, can be shown – there is no limitation to locally existing files like with the Windows Explorer
* You can see at one glance which directory contains uncommitted files or which files will be changed by performing an update command

OReilly Building iPhone Apps with HTML CSS and JavaScript

What people are saying about Building iPhone Apps w/ HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

“The future of mobile development is clearly web technologies like CSS, HTML and JavaScript. Jonathan Stark shows you how to leverage your existing web development skills to build native iPhone applications using these technologies.”
–John Allsopp, author and founder of Web Directions

“Jonathan’s book is the most comprehensive documentation available for developing web applications for mobile Safari. Not just great tech coverage, this book is an easy read of purely fascinating mobile tidbits in a fun colloquial style. Must have for all PhoneGap developers.”
– Brian LeRoux, Nitobi Software

It’s a fact: if you know HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, you already have the tools you need to develop your own iPhone apps. With this book, you’ll learn how to use these open source web technologies to design and build apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch on the platform of your choice-without using Objective-C or Cocoa.

Device-agnostic mobile apps are the wave of the future, and this book shows you how to create one product for several platforms. You’ll find guidelines for converting your product into a native iPhone app using the free PhoneGap framework. And you’ll learn why releasing your product as a web app first helps you find, fix, and test bugs much faster than if you went straight to the App Store with a product built with Apple’s tools.

Build iPhone apps with tools you already know how to use
Learn how to make an existing website look and behave like an iPhone app
Add native-looking animations to your web app using jQTouch
Take advantage of client-side data storage with apps that run even when the iPhone is offline
Hook into advanced iPhone features — including the accelerometer, geolocation, and vibration — with JavaScript
Submit your applications to the App Store with Xcode
This book received valuable community input through O’Reilly’s Open Feedback Publishing System (OFPS). Learn more at http://labs.oreilly.com/ofps.html.
