Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This is a wonderful utility and should be on the Mac of anyone who uses Unicode. It's also an excellent model of how to write a Mac OS X application, having all the bells and whistles a good Mac application should have.

Awesome Multilingual Web Coding Backup

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I pretty much use this app for one thing only, but that one thing is so utterly indespensible that it'd be worth money if it weren't generously free: Converting non-English text to HTML entities via the services menu. When inserting small blocks of Japanese characters into English web pages, being able to select the text in TextWrangler and just select convert from the Services menu has saved me so much time I don't even want to think about it. It even provides a nice little transparent overlay telling you what it's just done. The wide variety of other features I've poked at on occasion, and the spotlight integration is cool, but basically this app provides the most valuable Service on my computer, and has never caused an issue or not functioned as expected (even version 1.6 at the time Tiger shipped worked perfectly with it).
great unicode utility

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />When a forum I frequent migrated from YaBB to phpBB many characters weren't properly converted to HTML by the conversion tool they'd used. The Unicode->HTML Entities service is great for converting text from postings containing those chars but requires it be editable/replaceable. Is there some way to do conversion on selected text with results copied to the clipboard? If not, could that capability be added in a future version? Thanks!
very nice
