Chac Description

A beautiful and very easy to use Maya calendar. Chac is a Maya calendar for Mac OS X. You should use the software update control panel to upgrade to the latest software anyway because it includes important upgrades like security. Chac is compiled to run on Power PC and Intel Macs but it hasn't been tested on intel. The "Maya" calendar is actually a Mesoamerican calendar. The earliest calendar inscriptions were written by the Olmecs during the late Olmec period. All of the Mesoamerican cultures used some version of this calendar. Never the less it is known as the Maya calendar because so many excellent calendar inscriptions are found on mayan monuments.The Maya calendar is not a single calendar but a group of calendars or almanacs. What's New in This Release: · Changed the name of the file-> save as image... menu to the standard save as ... I made the accessory file type panel a pop up menu. · Added .insc (inscription) file type and several more graphics formats so you can save an inscription as insc, TIFF, PDF, JPG, JP2, PNG or BMP. · Added window titles. After a file is saved the framework will display the file name as the title. I didn't like "untitled" for new windows so I made it the Long Count of the inscription. The file system complains when you save files with periods in their names so I separated the units of the Long Count with spaces. · Fixed window cascading. In older versions new inscriptions were superimposed over older ones. · Enabled cutting to the clipboard using all three standard pasteboard types: PDF, TIFF, and PICT. · Changed the preferences panel so that hitting the default values button changes the front inscription to the default values as well as the panel. If there's no inscription open it will open one with today's date and the default values. · Changed my loadDataRepresentation: method to support reverting to saved if the inscription is saved to a file. I added code to activate or deactivate the Revert to Saved menu item. The framework does this badly and this will have to improve in a future release. · Re-wrote help file. I need to break this up into several files in a future release. · Remember: No program is ever finished.
