PortAuthority 3.1

I've released version 3.1 of PortAuthority, my GUI for the MacPorts Unix software installation system. This release, the first update in nearly a year, rolls in several improvements based on the Tcl/Tk infrastructure improvements I've been involved with--native printing, sheet dialogs, clickable links in the data display, integration with the Mac's Services menu, and integration with the system Keychain. I also fixed some annoying bugs, including a crash that was caused by some changes in the underlying MacPorts framework. Taken together, these new features significantly improve PortAuthority's integration with OS X, and make the application more pleasant to use. If you use MacPorts regularly, or are a regular user of PortAuthority, I recommend this update highly.
