Hi Moses,
I haven't installed your app yet—it looks great (it would be nice to 
have a DEB package for Debian/Ubuntu)—but my only regret is that maybe 
we could have focused our efforts on improving Xiphos and, above all, 
porting it to Mac, rather than adding a new app.
But that's just my opinion!
