Pulse 0.1.29

@github-actions github-actions released this 24 Oct 08:32
  • A Connections page, after Processes, lists each connection of each
    app on a Mac, as Sniffnet does: its host, named by the DNS, its
    service (HTTPS, QUIC, DNS, SSH…), TCP or UDP, its state, latency,
    rates and what it received and sent. It sorts and searches, and Enter
    shows its process. The sidebar counts those open.
  • The Network page shows the hosts the Mac talks to, by domain, and the
    services it talks to them by, each with what it carried and the app
    carrying the most; a click shows their connections.
  • The services macOS runs for an app, as Metal's shader compiler, show
    as the system's, with its gear rather than the app's icon, and the
    inspector says what they are.
  • ⌘3 and the keys after it each choose the page after the one they did,
    as Connections comes third.

Pulse 0.1.28

@github-actions github-actions released this 18 Oct 15:06
  • Pulse measures the computer from launch, so its window opens on what
    it shows rather than a spinner: the first rates take a quarter of a
    second to measure, at the window's opening.
  • Cleanup removes what tools unpack into read-only folders, such as the
    apps dotslash keeps in its cache: it said permission was denied for
    each of their files.

Pulse 0.1.27

  • As Cleanup cleans, a wave of green runs through its panel: each light
    of what it frees turns green as that goes, glows a moment and goes out.
  • Cleanup finds temporary files on a Mac and Linux: it looked for them
    only on Windows.
  • Pulse checks for a new version soon after every launch: it waited a
    day after the last check, so reopening it within a day never showed a
    version released since.

Pulse 0.1.26

@github-actions github-actions released this 17 Oct 19:27
  • Cleanup, a page finding what the computer can make again and removing
    what you choose: apps' caches, logs, temporary files unchanged for three
    days, Xcode's builds, package managers' downloads and the Trash. It
    scans in a couple of seconds, leaves the caches of apps running alone,
    and never follows a link out of the folders it cleans. It scans on
    three threads at a low priority, after whatever you are doing.
  • Cleanup finds git worktrees Claude Code, Codex and other tools made,
    and removes those with nothing to commit with git, keeping their
    branches; Claude Code's and Codex's sessions over a month old;
    installers in Downloads; and pnpm's store. Homebrew's, pip's, Swift's
    and Go's caches show among the package managers'.
  • On Windows, closing the window hides Pulse to the tray, which shows it
    again, rather than quitting it; opening Pulse again shows it too. With
    no items in the tray, closing quits as before.
  • On Windows, the tray icon shows white on a dark taskbar, where it was
    black and barely visible.

Pulse 0.1.25

  • On a Mac, a menu bar panel stays readable over a dark window: its
    translucent material went dark behind the light appearance's text.

Pulse 0.1.24

@github-actions github-actions released this 17 Oct 11:38
  • On a Mac, a menu bar panel is translucent in Pulse's own light or dark
    appearance, with rounded corners and no arrow: the popover it was went
    gray over a dark window, and its arrow kept the color of what was
    behind it. A click on its item closes it again.

Pulse 0.1.23

  • On a Mac, a menu bar panel stays light, or dark in Dark Mode, over
    whatever window is behind it: over a dark one its text was hard to read.

Pulse 0.1.22

@github-actions github-actions released this 17 Oct 11:09
  • On a Mac, Settings > General chooses whether Pulse leaves the Dock when
    its window closes while items are in the menu bar. It does by default,
    as before.

Pulse 0.1.21

@github-actions github-actions released this 17 Oct 10:54
  • On a Mac, each measure is an item of its own in the menu bar, as iStat
    Menus shows them: CPU & GPU, memory, disk, network and temperature.
    CPU and memory show by default; Settings > Menu Bar chooses the others,
    whether they show their names, whether their lights are in their
    measure's colors, and how CPU and memory look: a meter, a graph, their
    value, or a gauge spelling their name down.
  • A click on an item opens its panel: the value now over its chart of the
    last minute, its figures, the apps and programs using the most of it,
    and buttons to its page and the settings. The CPU's shows the GPU's
    use, memory, temperature and clock, then the processor's cores as
    rings, its load and the uptime. On Apple silicon the GPU's clock comes
    from IOReport and its temperature from the SMC's sensors.
  • Windows and Linux show the measures in one item, whose panel chooses
    the measure at its top.
  • Pulse can open at login, starting in the background without its window.
    On a Mac it leaves the Dock once its window closes while items are in
    the menu bar, which open the window again.
  • The settings are a window of their own, as tall as the tab it shows,
    with tabs in its toolbar; its button moved to the sidebar's foot, with
    a gear.
  • Charts' tooltips paint above what follows them, a menu bar panel keeps
    the height of the tab it shows as it switches, and on Windows the
    settings window opens in front of the main window.

  • The item that shows a file in its folder, in a process's or an app's
    menu and in the inspectors, names the computer's file manager now:
    File Explorer on Windows, the file manager on Linux, and Finder on a
    Mac.
