ProCSSor Introducing our latest app for Mac OS X, ProCSSor. An essential tool for any web designer.

Let's face it - we've all come across badly written CSS with no style, mixed styles, or even machine generated CSS. Then, there's our own lazy, late-night CSS which makes no sense in the morning. ProCSSor formats your CSS in an elegant and readable way. Instead of pouring over an unformated CSS file, let ProCSSor turn it into a readable document. It automatically indents, spaces, and styles your CSS according to your specifications. ProCSSor also compresses your CSS for production and quickly lets you prettify when you're ready to code, so you'll never have to keep separate copies for development and production.

ProCSSor is easy to use and can let you choose your favorite coding styles so it can format your CSS just the way you like it. To format CSS just drag and drop your CSS files, paste code into the editor, or give it the URL of the stylesheet you want to process. Read up on the all the features of ProCSSor at http://procssorapp.com/.

As web designers, we take pride not just in how our website looks but also in creating beautiful code. ProCSSor keeps your code looking great and easy to scan even months later.

One of the coolest features of the iPhone is how it can customize certain information and services based on where you are, for example in Guidance on the iPhone you can ask it to find your current location and display the prayer times for that location instead of having to search for the location as you currently have to on Guidance for the Mac.

When Apple introduced Snow Leopard in 2009 one of the features they included in it was the same functions you call on the iPhone to determine the user's location. And they even updated some of their applications to make use of this, such as the time zone selector in the Date and Time preference panel

Of course this is not going to be as accurate as the iPhone is, the iPhone can use a GPS or cell tower triangulation to find your location. What Snow Leopard (and the iPod Touch) use to find your location are the names of the different WiFi hotspots it can see. So while not accurate enough to give you turn by turn driving directions, it is definitely accurate enough to set your time zone and hopefully accurate enough to automatically set your prayer time location, this would be especially useful for people with laptops who travel frequently. InshAllah I plan on looking into utilizing this feature in an update for Guidance on the Mac (which does still have ongoing development). So definitely keep an eye out for a Guidance update soon inshAllah.
