Description: Taply is a simple soundfile player. Although a lot of similar tools do exist for Mac OS X, I did not know of any which behaves exactly the way I want it to, so I wrote this application. The main difference between Taply and other players lies in the fact that it consists of nothing more than a tiny floating window and that it will quit after having finished playing. This way, (at least for me) it's the perfect tool to scan quickly through a large number of audio files. Taply is localized in English, German, French, Swedish and Italian.What's new in this version:Improved user interfaceAdded a playback progress bar that can be used to navigate in filesKeyboard shortcut for increasing and decreasing the volume and restarting the trackFixed a potential crash on LeopardFixed a drag&drop problem that could result in an invisible Taply process running in the backgroundOptionally, the volume setting can be preserved between launches by activating a hidden preference setting (see Readme for details)New "Loop" icon...
