So I won the AUC Widget Challenge… huzzah! I'm keen to see the other entries as well… I'll post a link to them as soon as there is a page available.

This is a newer version than the one that was judged, with an excellent new visual design by Domenic Lattari.

Basically it lets you post an entry to your weblog, it definitely works with blojsom, both the normal version, and the one that Apple distributes with Tiger Server. It should actually work with any MetaWeblog API compatible blog server, but I haven't tested it with heaps of them.

Update: Now with full support for WordPress.

Here's a screenshot:


You can download it here.

And you can download the ReadMe file for it here

If you are interested in the source code, you can download that here. It uses CoreServices to do the XML-RPC stuff.

So I was helping someone out who was having a mysterious error in Workgroup Manager, and they were surprised when I showed them how to find what the actual error code meant.


man DirectoryService


has a nice description of them towards the bottom:

ERRORS
     From <DirectoryService/DirServiceTypes.h>
          eDSNoErr                           =    0
          eDSOpenFailed                      =    -14000
          eDSCloseFailed                     =    -14001
          eDSOpenNodeFailed                  =    -14002

etc etc. Yes, it would be nice if Workgroup Manager actually had the slightly more descriptive name appear rather than the numeric code, wouldn't it? :)
