  • MarcEdit 5.1 posted

    Yikes!  This has been a long time coming.  I’ve had MarcEdit 5.1 ready for quite a while but responsiblitlies with LibraryFind and other projects has pushed this off my plate for a little bit.  However, I’ve finally got this out.  So what’s been done.  Biggest change: MarcEdit now uses .NET 2.0.  This was a big…

  • MarcEdit 5.1 + Linux (and Mac) Part II

    So, I’ve been doing a bit of house cleaning over the past week going through the code and making sure that no windowism remain in the codebase (i.e., stupid things, like directory slashes, assumptions as to how programs execute (obviously, with mono I need to get path information, creating an “installer” to set application/folder paths…

  • Diamond Lake redux

    So this weekend, my family and I spent 4 nights down at Diamond Lake with my wife’s two sisters, their families and their parents.  (not pictured, my brother-in-law, my wife’s parents and me) For Kenny and Nathan, it was their second trip down to Diamond Lake in 2 weeks.  During the first trip down, we…

    I’m posting this in hopes that it will save someone else a lot of time or someone that knows .NET a bit better than I can provide a better solution.  Problem: Last week, I had someone ping me regarding MarcEdit and a problem that they were running into with the Editor running it on a 64-bit…

  • Kenny and Nathan camping

    We took Nathan and Kenny camping for the first time this last weekend.  We drove down to Diamond Lake, in Southern Oregon and had a nice relaxing time with the kids and my parents (who camped next to us).  My dad and I took off Saturday and road from Diamond Lake to Crater Lake and…

  • MarcEdit Update

    I’ll be updating MarcEdit to 5.1 shortly.  I need to make sure all the changes are working.  This will replace 5.0, and remove the beta moniker.  Ideally, this would have been done much sooner, but I got busy with a number of other projects that really left me with little time to work on MarcEdit. …

  • Summer ALA 2007

    This years Annual ALA conference was in Washington DC and was a first for me in that this was the first year that I brought my oldest son, Kenny with me on my travels.  For Kenny, ALA was an exciting trip.  This represented the first time that he has really left Oregon (outside of going…

  • Going to the movies

    Living in a small town has many benefits — no traffic, quiet neighborhoods, friendly neighbors — but sometimes, it can be a little inconvenient.  For example, if we wanted to watch a movie.  For the first 4 years, we’d have to drive to either Corvallis (25 miles) or Salem (21 miles — but awful traffic). …
