MetaFilter (262) permalink
It's not often that a freeware game can truly be called a masterpiece but Daniel Remar has finally released Iji, an action platformer with touches of RPG, in which you control a female heroine with a whole lot of engineered superhuman abilities. What makes this game so good is the sheer of polish that has been put into the production and the large amount of choices there are to make.

MaZZick 萬用滑鼠手勢隨身版,輕鬆在每台電腦間飛行衝浪 (9)
on
電腦玩物 (138) permalink
首先,今天這個軟體能夠實現五芒星的呼叫命令了! 「滑鼠手勢(Mouse Gestures)」就是讓使用者透過拖曳滑鼠所製造出來的軌跡路線,來呼叫出不同的命令操作。這種操作方式不同於鍵盤快捷鍵的敲擊感,而帶著一種圖形想像的趣味,當然滑鼠手勢本身也確實非常方便,因為只需要單手拖拉就可以產生各種效果,也拓展了原本滑鼠這個硬體可以執行的命令範圍。 「滑鼠手勢」最常出現在網路瀏覽器當中,像是Opera就率先的內建了這種功能,而Firefox、IE也可以透過擴充套件來實現滑鼠手勢。通常用過滑鼠手勢的人會很容易上癮,當回到一般的文書編輯軟體或各種應用程式上時,還是會不自覺的產生「憑空」拖曳滑鼠的動作,等到沒有效果時才驀然驚覺,原來這個程式還沒有支援滑動式的滑鼠操作法。 於是就有人設計了「泛用型」的滑鼠手勢工具,讓整個Windows環境都可以用滑鼠拖曳來控制,例如「gMote!」、「StrokeIt」。而今天要介紹的「MaZZick」則是另外一款的泛用型滑鼠手勢工具,常駐後你可以在任何軟體上應用滑鼠手勢,並且這個小軟體還是免安裝的,也就是說你設計的手勢將可以「隨身攜帶」,在任何電腦上都能立即享受同樣的滑鼠衝浪快感。 MaZZick說明網頁:http://tinyurl.com/5e7sbt MaZZick下載點:http://tinyurl.com/6a95vy 下載這個免費、免安裝的軟體,然後將其解壓縮,以後你可以隨意的移動這個資料夾,裝進隨身碟中,所有的設定都會跟著走。要啟動MaZZick,就進入資料夾點擊〔Mazzick.exe〕執行檔。 MaZZick啟動後會停駐在系統列通知區域,用滑鼠左鍵點擊圖示後可以「啟動/暫停」滑鼠手勢功能。或者用滑鼠右鍵打開選單,透過【Various Gestures】來設定編輯手勢;透過【Preferences】來設定其他相關細節。 進入【Preferences】,你可以勾選「AutoStart at Windows Logon」來開機啟動這個軟體。畫面中間的選項可以調整滑鼠軌跡的顏色與粗細。下方的「Activate by:」則是設定要用哪些輔助鍵來啟動滑鼠手勢功能,預設是按住鍵盤的〔Shift〕,或者是按住〔滑鼠中鍵〕,就可以啟動手勢拖曳的功能。(也就是你要先按住這個輔助鍵,然後去拖曳滑鼠,才算是滑鼠手勢的呼叫命令) 進入【Various Gestures】可以編輯或增減手勢命令,MaZZick已經幫我們預設了大多數可能會用到的手勢功能,其中有些範例也可以啟發我們去設計更多相似的新命令。我們可以透過上方的〔New Move〕來新增滑鼠手勢,或是透過〔Modify Move〕來編輯已經存在的滑鼠手勢,或是可以用〔Remove〕來移除指令。 下面列表裡手勢的表示方法是:綠色代表手勢的開頭,紅色代表手勢動作的結尾。 從前面的範例我們可以看到MaZZick基本上允取圓形、不規格、重疊等等的軌跡設定,自由度非常大,你甚至可以把某些命令用英文單字的手寫軌跡來設定。而且我實際的使用上,發現MaZZick的辨識度也很有彈性,只要你畫手勢時不要差太多,有維持住原本大概的樣子,就可以呼叫出你設定的手勢。不會因為你畫得不夠圓或不夠方而呼叫失敗。 點擊〔New Move〕來新增一個滑鼠手勢,上方欄位就是讓你去畫出想設定的軌跡,設定時按住〔滑鼠左鍵〕來畫出你想要的圖形。然後在下方的欄位選擇相應的動作。這邊的動作分成幾種類型: 開啟或搜尋檔案、資料夾、網址:目標檔案、資料夾與網址都是可以由你自訂的。所以你可以設定多個手勢來開啟常用網站與檔案目錄。 鍵盤快捷鍵取代(Keyword Events):幫你用滑鼠手勢取代各種軟體或系統的鍵盤快捷鍵;例如原本按〔Alt〕+〔←〕是瀏覽器中的回到上一頁,而你可以透過MaZZick用滑鼠手勢來取代。 各種預設的系統動作:例如放大縮小關閉視窗、打開關閉光碟機,甚至重新開機等等。 我以非常有用的「取代鍵盤快捷鍵」來舉例,選擇【Keyword Events】,然後按右下角的〔Browse〕就可以看到可以支援的快捷鍵選單,你可以繼續點選想要關聯的快捷鍵來設定。就像我之前在「Firefox 瀏覽器單手就能完成的快捷鍵練習」提到的,Windows系統裡許多快捷鍵都是通用的,所以當你在這邊設定了對應的滑鼠手勢後,就可以在系統的任何地方使用。 P.S.許多快捷鍵其實MaZZick已經幫我們設定好相應的滑鼠手勢,所以我們可以直接使用或是修改即可。 Google Chrome也能支援滑鼠手勢! 最近的文章很難不常常提到Google Chrome,例如這個Google瀏覽器原本並沒有支援滑鼠手勢,但是透過MaZZick,想讓Google Chrome支援滑鼠手勢自然也是輕而易舉的了! 這是在桌面作法嗎? 嗯嗯!搭配一些「適當」的桌布,在桌面劃起滑鼠手勢來呼叫Windows命令時,也會別有一番風味呢! 小結: 運行MaZZick一段時間後,它大約會占用9~10MB的記憶體,沒有出現強占CPU的情況,所以整個軟體的運行上都很順暢。加上它可以設定的手勢與功能對我來說都足夠豐富,而且最重要的是MaZZick是「免安裝的」,設定可以隨身攜帶,如此一來可以在很大的程度上讓每台我要使用的電腦都輕鬆掛上「滑鼠手勢」的功能,再也不會遇到沒有手勢而操作不順手的情況了。Shared by i978 (6) Kevin (7) Neil (12) SHOW (5) VampireNeo (22) villahwong (9) vsy (28) we (28) 吉兒 (43)Contribute comment -

Google Chrome 目前我這樣用:桌面端離線/在線網路應用程式 (9)

電腦玩物 (138) permalink
這幾天,不能免俗的我也試玩了Google Chrome這款火熱的瀏覽器。我想網路上對於Google Chrome的各種介紹、分析、評價與教學都已經非常多了,所以我在這裡就列舉一些我覺得值得一看的文章就好了。如果要我用最簡單的話來介紹這款瀏覽器,我會說:這就是一款Google發行的瀏覽器,裡面包含了Google的技術,以及Google對於網路應用的未來展望。 既然Google Chrome的最激情之夜已過,所以今天這篇文章,我想聊聊的就是:試玩過後,大家會怎麼在日常生活中真的去使用這款瀏覽器?我想有的朋友可能會暫時擱置Google Chrome,有的朋友可能會決定把Google Chrome當作主力瀏覽器。 而對於我來說,我需要的不只是一款可以看看網頁的瀏覽器,所以Firefox強大的擴充性還是比較能滿足我各種工作需求。然而我仍然想為Google Chrome在我的電腦中找一個位置,事實上我也同時安裝IE 8 Beta2、Opera和Safari,不過大多是作為測試用途,而對於Google Chrome,我目前決定用它來取代Prism或Bubbles,成為我的桌面端精簡型、可離線的網路應用瀏覽器。 Google Chrome:http://www.google.com/chrome Google Gears:http://gears.google.com/ 進入正題之前,我先列舉一下關於上面兩個Google工具的相關精彩文章: Google Chrome: 善用佳軟:Google Chrome浏览器:新热点从今天开始(v2.4) Digital Inspiration:Google Chrome Features that we miss in other Web Browsers Initiative - est's blog:【原创】谷歌浏览器 Google Chrome 免安装绿色版! 重灌狂人:如何在Google Chrome瀏覽器的「網址列」搜尋其他網站?(英漢字典、地圖、影片、MP3…) Google Operating System:Google Chrome's about: Pages 东拉西扯:理解Chrome Google Gears: 國二學生認真打雜:初談 Google Gears 的程式寫作 MMDays:Google Developer Day - Gears 月光博客:使用Google Gears的网站应用列表 Google Gears很早之前就已經發佈,本來就可以同時在Firefox和IE上面安裝使用。技術性的說明留給上面文章裡的高手,如果用一般形象化的說明,使用Google Gears後,你可以把網站的部份資料庫與介面下載到本機中,而這個好處首先就是當你離線、斷線時,你同樣可以在本機操作該網路應用程式,而你這時候所有增添刪減的資料,都會在恢復連線後與網路端同步;另外這樣的技術某種程度上可以同時發揮本機與網路端兩方面的效能,更大限度的運用所有可能的資源與方法來加速你操作網路應用程式的流暢性。所以Google Gears能同時增加網路使用時的穩定與效能,這兩點剛好是我們對於操作型網路應用最重要的需求,而至於Google Chrome特色之一正是內建了Google Gears。 因此,目前我可以想到對我來說最有效的Google Chrome使用方法,就是利用它內建的Google Gears功能,把某些常用網站型應用程式搬上桌面端,讓即使離線,或不小心斷線時也可以繼續操作。 離線的線上文書處理程式: 關於目前支援Google Gears的網站列表可以參考前面的連結。我這邊以Google Docs文書編輯為例,來到Google Docs,要先切換到「英文版」後,你就可以在右上角帳號旁邊看到「Offline」的字樣,點擊該連結後就可以啟動Google ...Shared by Eataix (1) fishfish (22) i978 (6) Kevin (7) Neil (12) VampireNeo (22) Wind (24) Young (23) zgjie (16)- Young said: 准备试一试离线应用。
