Gmail Notifier Plus 3.5 has been released. Thanks to all who contributed localization files, tested and submitted bugs.

Info on Gmail Notifier Plus is here Gmail Notifier Plus Readme

The latest Installer and version/release can always be found here: http://shellscape.org/#gnp

Other Downloads can always be found here: https://github.com/shellscape/Gmail-Notifier-Plus/downloads

For my own sanity, I won't be replying to support requests or error reports on the forums here. But members should feel free to help out other members. Please report issues here: https://github.com/shellscape/Gmail-Notifier-Plus/issues

Changes in 3.5 include:

  • New MSI Installer (zip files are still available)
  • Automated update checking and upgrading.
  • Significant stability improvements.
  • All reported bugs fixed.
  • 30 new locales/languages added.

For a full list of specific changes, see https://github.com/shellscape/Gmail-Notifier-Plus/commits/master

If you chose to use the ZIP and not the MSI, I'm recommending that users unzip the program to C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Shellscape\Gmail Notifier Plus. It solves most permissions issues and I'm going to be installing to that directory when I get the installer wrapped up. That's also be the path the installer uses.

shellscape.org is back up (for a few days now, forgot to update). Minor release is pending in a few days with a couple of bug fixes. Those of you with 3.5 should notice an update dialog in the app at some point.

Any more translation needed?

I don't use GMail personally, but kudos to you for the app and your work :)

EDIT::

While knowing that Rumshot is in beta, and probably intended to stick to a static size, it would be much better if you could resize the screenshot scope >.< It's awesome though :o

I have been using this program for a long time now and it has helped alert me to new important emails I've been waiting for.

Yesterday I installed windows 8 64-bit and today I thought I'd give this program a go to see if it ran.

Sadly it does not run in Windows 8. Here is the readout:

Hello all. I've been slowly poking at GNP and have a solid point release in the works. Some more fixed issues as reported and I've done a lot of work trying to reign in leaking resources/memory. I'm testing the build locally here, but should have something ready soon. Those of you running 3.5 will see an update window popup when it's released. Cheers

I got ambitious tonight and decided to add a tray menu for the tray icon users (non-superbar users, if there are any still). The tray menu now mirrors the jumplist that the superbar users see. I also removed the envelope backdrop in the tray icon. Saves on system resources, and it's just easier to see honestly.

      When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
