The Omegabundle vendors wish America and all Americans a Happy 250th Independence Day!

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia. Rather than the signing, this day marked the approval of the document’s final wording. Congress also authorized the printing and distribution of these finalized texts, known as the Dunlap Broadsides.

The actual physical signing would happen later. John Hancock, as President of the Continental Congress, signed the official engrossed parchment copy of the Declaration of Independence on August 2, 1776 in Philadelphia. The original, official Declaration of Independence is permanently on display in the Rotunda for the Charters of Freedom at the National Archives Museum in Washington, DC.

If today is a coding day for you, happy coding!

Nickenich, Germany - (July 21st, 2026) – Monkeybread Software today is pleased to announce MBS Xojo Plugins 26.3 for macOS, Linux and Windows, the latest update to their product that is easily the most powerful plugin collection currently available for Xojo. MBS Xojo Plugins have been updated and now includes over 3000 classes and 85,000 documented features, and the versatile plugins have gained more new functions:

The AtomicDictionaryMBS class provides a thread safe dictionary. Beside all the normal dictionary functionality we have special functions to do multiple operations together in a thread safe matter. You can iterate such a dictionary using AtomicDictionaryIteratorMBS and get entries with AtomicDictionaryEntryMBS class.

Use the AutoMutexMBS class to lock a mutex and automatically unlock it at the end of the method. Check the AutoLock and TryAutoLock methods in the MutexMBS class.

We added the WebView2BrowserMBS class to control both the WebView in a WebView2ControlMBS control or a HTMLViewer.

The XL classes got updated with new sort options for auto filters in XLAutoFilterMBS class. You can check data validations for a sheet in XLSheetMBS class, check whether a table has an auto filter and remove the filter.

With StringMBS and StringViewMBS classes we have our own class for UTF-32 strings. Enjoy efficient string operations using views to avoid copying data.

For macOS Golden Gate you can use NSRefreshControllerMBS class to allow the user to refresh a view with swiping down. For menu items you can specify whether to show the menu icon with preferredImageVisibility property in NSMenuItemMBS class. Check touch capabilities per screen with NSScreenMBS class.

For DynaPDF we added the Sauvola filter to convert gray images to black & white. The WinSparkleMBS class got a CanShutdown event, detect the new macOS version with isGoldenGate function in SystemInformationMBS module, and we added ResolveThreadsMax and QuickExit properties to CURLSMultiMBS class.

The Omegabundle vendors wish Steve Wozniak, a happy birthday!

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak was born on August 11, 1950, and he and Steve Jobs officially founded Apple Computer on April 1, 1976.

Let us celebrate the foundational milestone of personal computing where Steve Wozniak’s engineering genius met the accessibility of software with the introduction of the Apple I and the groundbreaking Apple II, and his contribution to the BASIC language.

Wozniak didn’t just build revolutionary hardware; he hand-crafted Integer BASIC—originally dubbed “Game BASIC”—to give these machines an instant, vibrant voice. Shifting from a cassette tape addition for the Apple I to a permanent fixture built directly into the original Apple II’s ROM, this programming language democratized technology. When talking about Apple BASIC, it refers to the early programming language interpreters used on Apple I and Apple II computers. Apple used two main dialects: Integer BASIC (written by Steve Wozniak) and Applesoft BASIC (licensed from Microsoft).

A generation of developers grew up on Apple BASIC!
