Stapler: I remade a 32 year old classic Macintosh app


A couple of days ago I was reading on Hacker News about a feature in some Linux window managers where they allow collections of tabs from different apps.

The idea is you set up a Stapler Document per project containing related apps, files, folders, etc. But I’m always banging the drum that there is so much good stuff that was prematurely left behind with the memories of System 7 ( I still use it), BeOS, OS/2, AmigaWorkbench, GEM and the alternative desktops of Atari ST, and so on. To Dustin Mierau for kickstarting this trend of remaking forgotten old apps for modern macOS.
