I've put in alot of work into Stripe Snoop over the last few months, and after a near-full re-write in C++, its all starting to come together. Reader hardware information is now kept in an XML config file that an auto-detection utility, rdetect, creates. All the reader/hardware is very abstracted into generic C++ classes, that makes adding support of new readers a snap. The database is now supports all tracks. So if you have a more advanced reader, you get more information, but if you don't, it still works!

If you own a Mac, Stripe Snoop should work with serial based readers, if you have a Serial-to-USB converter, and the port is accessible through /dev. Contact me if you have a Mac!

Stripe Snoop 2.0 will be released beta-testers on Nov 24th, and will be released on Dec 1st.
