Every single one of these programs is available only in windows with no alternative for mac. Doesn't do me any good unfortunately. Thanks for the links though.

Some Mac apps

Color Schemer Studio
http://www.colorschemer.com/osx_info.html

Add a color wheel to any app (shows harmonizing colors)
http://www.oldjewelsoftware.com/products/ppicker/

Resize browser in Safari:
Simply add these JavaScript snippets as bookmarks. Just put each one where you'd normally put the URL when you add a bookmark.
javascript:self.resizeTo(800,600);
javascript:self.resizeTo(1024,780);

In linux for KDE, the preferred program I use for file comparisson is: Kompare (which I think is possible for Mac OSX)

This program rivals the very expensive ones I was running on XP and not only has a great interface for comparrisons and color highlights, but multiple window files as well with automatic file change or individual line change.

KDiff 3 works ok, but after installing and using Kompare extensively, I have not used it since.

For a color picker, just pick up the extension for Firefox "Color Picker" (i think that is the name..on Opera now) and use that. Works miracles.

I don't even touch any of my alternate browsers since Safari was released. Built-in spellchecker is amazing. Is there some sort of way to extend Safari like you can with mozilla browsers?

PSPad is a full featured text editor that you can use to edit HTML, PHP, Perl, JavaScript, C, etc. It even has built-in facilities allowing you to edit binary files. There is project support, the ability to directly edit files via FTP on your server, a macro recorder, search and replace in files, text comparison (differences between two files with the differences highlighted in colour), syntax highlighting, spell checking, internal HTML preview using IE and Mozilla, integrated HTML TIDY (for validating HTML code and fixing them), code explorer for Pascal, HTML, PHP, XML (etc), matched bracket highlighting, etc.

That I am not sure of as I primarily use Linux with a combination of Mozilla, Konq, Ephany, Firefox and Nutscrape until I made the switch from Firefox as a primary (simply because it has become real sluggish lately in each release for Linux no matter what mods I do to the config file which is the direct opposite of Firefox on XP which screams) to Opera, and man, for the first time ever, I think I am going to purchase a browser.

The 8.02 build of Opera is simply amazing and lightning fast.

However, back on topic, I would almost care to guess knowing Apple, that they do have some sorted function for their own plugin control as Apple seems to be a innovator in areas that cater to all persons of the Internet arena rather than the casual browser shopping for something off of E-Bay like IE does.

Hmmm. Well, thanks. I can't stand Opera on Mac, as it seems to display everything very strange.
