New Google Hacks Release Soon

I am sorry for the delay in the release of Google Hacks 1.6, I've been very busy with my "real life" projects.

Just some pre-release notes.

Added Applications section - Request made by geeksquad.disc.

Removed product key search.

Fixed update - Sorry about that.

Thanks for the support,
Jason

Any chance of adding .cbr and .cbz extensions to books?

yeah Sure thing!

We started doing nightly releases.

We plan to make a official release early September.

Found your app from Washington Post article.

Installed it on a Mac.

Has Google thwarted its use? No search has worked yet.

Simple searched-like:
Bob Dylan

I have recognized this as a problem.

Thank you so much for bringing it to my attention.

I will work on it as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Two things:

1. Love the program. Thanks for your work on this.

2. I don't think you can license it under the GPL AND say its for educational purposes only. I think those are mutually exclusive. You might be able to do the LGPL, I dunno.

I'm really struggling with the PDF search string thing, what do I enter to find a book called "The Exorcist" by William Peter Blatty? Tcan anyone please help me, maybe break it down a little. I found one book but it's all in Spanish. if anyone wants that link, message me and I will send it to you. If anyone decides to give it a try, Im basically looking for any book in PDF file that covers the topic of "Demonic Possession" for example..."The Dark Sacrament" "possessed" by Allen B Thomas or Ed and Lorraine Warrens books. I sure would appreciate. I have a paper due . thanks.
