Yojimbo 1.3 adds tagging

Bare Bones Software today released Yojimbo 1.3, updating the information organization utility with tagging for grouping and retrieval of items stored in Yojimbo. The maintenance release fixes reported issues and adds several significant refinements, according to Bare Bones. The new tagging system supports single- and multi-word tags, as well as 'Tag Collections.' Users can create and edit tags via the Quick Input Panel or the Inspector palette, as well as inside an item's Item Details bar. The new Item details bar supplants the Encryption bar with expanded capabilities to manage tagging, renaming, and encryption functions in one location. Yojimbo 1.3 is a free update for registered users that requires Mac OS X 10.4.3 or later, and is available for $40 to new users.

The latest revision of Yojimbo also adds several new options for Keychain access, allowing users to streamline workflow. Users can locate items by tag using the application-wide search field, or gather items together by those with tags in common as a Tag Collection. Yojimbo 1.3 also supports assigning tags to items via AppleScript. The software's Note items can contain tables as well as lists, and command-clicking a link within a Web archive opens the linked page in the background with the preferred Web browser. The Web archive viewer also includes two new contextual menu commands, and a status bar displaying the target link.
