Virtue is a virtual desktop manager for Mac developed as a so called pet project of mine. Over time Virtue developed (and keeps developing) into a full featured virtual desktop manager able to compete with commercial variants of its kind.
DesktopManager served as the inspirational source at first, so be sure to visit their site to check them out as well.
Here are some key features of "Virtue":
Virtual Desktops - Unlimited number of desktops to your disposal
Eye Candy - Exciting transitions and window fading
AppleScript - Let AppleScript work for you...
Sleek - Virtue does not clutter your desktop area
Extensible - Install plugins to add additional features
Expose - Works well with Expose
Keeps you informed - Overlay notifications and current desktop display
Stickies - Have windows and applications on all desktops.
What's New:
Renamed the “Extensions” preferences to “Plugins” (which is what they really will be).
PowerPC users should be exempt from the endless authentication craziness (although the question remains as to how many people are actually getting full functionality if the dock code isn’t inserting properly). I’m not sure if anything will change for Intel users yet.
There is a first sweep at integrated Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) switching. If your laptop has a backlit keyboard, you can try enabling this from the “Application Preferences”. Make sure you set the sensitivity accordingly (I recommend about 25% of the way along).
