Re: Software discounts and recommendations

For want of a better place, I’m tacking this onto this thread:

The comparatively expensive mac-only text editor Nova by Panic Inc has just had a major upgrade and is currently being offered at half price until 1 April: Twitter Tweet.

Get version 7.5 (edit: download-cdn.panic.com/nova/Nova%207.5.zip seems to be live), works fine with Mojave:

thanks but alas:

You can’t open the application “Nova-2.app” because the Classic environment is no longer supported”

Weird. That error relates to OS9 applications running on macOS 10, so I’m not sure why that’s appearing. What happens if you delete the existing Nova.app using AppCleaner and then drop v7.5 into place so it becomes the ‘new’ Nova.app?

If you hadn’t done it already, I’d have posted this too. It’s still excellent value price-wise compared to Adobe’s Creative Suite and for those who don’t have to work explicitly with adobe files an affordable alternative.

Re: Software discounts and recommendations

Took the plunge and completed the holy trinity in my suite, thanks Pete. At least when someone sends me an .AI file I can actually open it now.

Now all I have to do is master the pen tool…
