I've been using Filezilla in the back to maintain my dev tools multi-platform, but I have now switched to Fugu (opensource) that has a native Mac GUI. FTP, SFTP and SCP! i love it!

Yeah I tried Fugu a while back. I'm pretty sure it was one of the ones that didn't have a two pane interface.

That's hardly a disappointment!
Hmmm... I wonder if it has grown that feature or if I missed it.
Anyway, thanks - that's cool.

Hello! I saw that sneaky namecheck! I'd love to help out in what little way I can with the diagrams. Send me an email, I'll get right on it.

Have you considered using a textual language to describe the technical diagrams in your book? It's often much easier. If you've read a book by Kernighan or W. Richard Stevens then you've been looking at diagrams drawn with pic -- http://troff.org/prog.html#pic -- but there are others. You can turn pic into various formats, e.g. EPS. BTW, please avoid using "drop shadows" on your diagrams. They add nothing but gray clutter and don't enhance the information over the simple plain box. Cheers, Ralph.

@Ralph - the problem is tht moving to a text based description of the diagram only 'moves' the problem rather than solving it...
I think that Jonathan's version of the hedgehog diagram shows that decent design skills can make an enormous difference to the quality of the result.

For diagrams, just install X11 for OSx and then install dia (http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia) (you can use macports for that). The dia tool is very useful to create any kind of diagram. Of course it is not omnigraffle, but hey, it is free (and open source).

@Wu Thanks - for the moment I'm happy with Neo Office, but I'll bear it in mind.
