ActiveDrag is a small system extension that will allow you to drag windows on your screen LIVE. That is, the window will actually move as you drag it. There are a few problems with this nifty live dragging utility. First, windows that are partially off screen (outside of the monitor viewing area) cannot be dragged live. Second, when dragging, windows in the same program of the dragged window will not update. This is because the code that draws the dragged window hogs the process for that application. Thirdly, dragging a window requires some RAM. If that RAM isn't available, the window will not be drawn correctly. This utility is freeware.

AliasCrony is the ultimate alias manager. It has several features: - Since aliases of applications lose the capability to have files dropped on, when the original is on a different volume, AliasCrony can create SuperAlias, a new alias kind, having drag capability always active. - It can create aliases or SuperAliases and put them into specific predefined folders, when you're using the Drag&Drop mode. From its menus, instead, you can select the destination folders by using a speedy way. - It can update aliases (also as SuperAliases) on the fly or else through its menus. - It can add, to aliases, some useful custom icon, freeing a bit of space on desktop (as before: you can add the custom icon on the fly or else by using the proper menu). -You may configure any action of above through preferences and change them with one keystroke before creating aliases or SuperAliases . - It can scan all on-line volumes to create lists of: a) attached aliases, b) unattached aliases, c) aliases and originals on different volumes. -It can scan also individual folders-disks. The created lists return useful infos about the aliases found, moreover, from these lists, AliasCrony can do several actions: a) retrieves and shows aliases and originals. b) links/updates/deletes/moves aliases. c) shows the Finder's Info window, about aliases and originals. d) updates aliases of applications to SuperAliases. e) trashs the whole aliases list. AliasCrony is Internet Config aware, Appearance Savvy and requires at least System Seven to run. Author: Rocco Moliterno mailto:yellowsoft@geocities.com http://yellowsoft.home.ml.org/ New since version 2.1.0 Removed a bug causing, sometimes on 68K, the unexpected closing of AliasCrony. Replaced, on 68k code, SpinCursor with WatchCursor to avoid trouble with the most recent development libraries for 68k, who support badly this feature.

The Application Switching Manager is a public interface that several third party utilities support. It is currently support by ClaireWare Software¹s Program Switcher and Binary Software¹s PowerSwitch. For more information on these programs, please visit one of the following web pages: http://www.kamprath.net/claireware/program_switcher.html http://www.binarysoft.com/psmac/psmac.html What is required? Application Commander requires the following: Apple¹s Speech Recognition System v1.5 or later (comes with MacOS 8.5) PowerPC processor Program Switcher v4.4.0 or PowerSwitch v1.0.0 or later MacOS 8.0 or later How do I use it? All you need to do is enable the Speech Recognition Manager in the Speech control panel and then launch Application Commander. Application Commander is a ³background only application,² so there are no options or other user interface to mess with. To cause Application Commander to do something, all you have to do is say a command that Application Commander recognizes and it will act on that command. Application Commander recognizes the following commands: Switch to the Finder Switch to the Last Application Switch to Hide Other Applications Hide the Current Application Hide All Applications but the Finder Show All Applications Quit All Applications Quit All Other Applications Quit Application Commander Launch Most commands should be self explanatory. The ³Switch to ² means that you say ³Switch to² and the name of a running application and Application Commander will take you to it. The ³Launch ² command will launch/open any item in a special folder that Application Commander creates when it is run for the first time. This folder is titled ³Launchable Files², and it is located in the ³Application Commander² folder created in the ³Application Support² folder in the System folder (MacOS 8.0 and later). Place any file into the ³Launchable Files² folder that you wish Application Commander to be able to launch. It is recomended, though, that you only place alias of files into ³Launchable Files². Both applications and document files can be launched by Application Commander. #### BINHEX appsizer-231.hqx **** From: Michael Peirce Subject: AppSizer 2.31 AppSizer is a control panel that allows you to modify an application's MultiFinder partition size as you launch it.

Extremely useful if in your work you need to switch repeatedly between two or three applications. It should run on any Mac running System 7. Argus is an application switcher inspired on the Windows 95 switcher. Pressing down the activator key (option by default) and the tab key, a window pops up displaying icons of all running applications. The most recently used application's icon (excluding the active one) is selected by default. If this is the application to which you want to switch, you can simply release the activator key, otherwise you can press the tabulator key (while hodling down the activator key) one or more times to switch between all running applications' icons in a round-robin fashion. You can invert the order in which the icons are selected by pressing the shift-tabulator key. When the desired aplication's icon is selected, you release the activator key and selected application is brought to front. You can modify the activator key(s) through the Argus control panel. You can also switch between displaying small icons and large icons in the Argus switcher window. Bye.

When the Assimilator program is run on a lab Macintosh it will mount an AppleShare file server and then make the harddisk look more or less exactly like a pre-specified source folder on the server. It does this by throwing away (into the Trash) any files or folders that don't belong or are different and downloading any missing files. Icon positions, folder views, finder flags and so forth are all corrected on the client Macintosh to match the source folder. Although it is designed for student lab situations, it has also proven useful in other circumstances, such as for setting up newly purchased Macs or in testing or demo labs. New in version 2.0.1: * Single log file on the system disk. * Fixed problems with Alias resolution. * Fixed the balloon help. * Fixed import database to work with 1.x databases. * Changed memory allocation in Assimilator. * Various other minor changes and bug fixes. New in version 2.0: * Powerful new customization features. * Handle multiple partitions. * Restrict to portions of volumes. * Support AppleShareIP over TCP/IP. * Support assimilation from CD and local volumes. * Execute protected scripts and applications. * Fixed several bugs. Assimilator requires System 7 and a harddisk. Assimilator is shareware, $10 per Mac or $500 for a site license. Version 2.0 is a free upgrade if you registered on or after 1 Jan 1998, otherwise the upgrade fee is 50%. For more information, see our web site at . Hope it proves useful, Peter & Jeremy.

They have localization codes for almost any country, including Lapland and the Faeroe Islands, but not for the country of Mozart, Beethoven, Sachertorte and The Sound of Music. ;-) So far, this didn't matter all that much, but since OS 8.5 it does. You see, OS 8.5 offers automatic compatibility for non-Western web pages, and if you install this feature, you have a permanent keyboard menu in your menu bar (as you did in OS 8 if you had more than one keyboard mapping selected in the Keyboard control panel). This means that Austrian users have to stare at the German flag all the time while they're sitting at their computer. I decided to change that. This little patch adds some Austrian data to your system file, *replacing* the corresponding German ones. You'll notice the difference in the control panels Date & Time, Keyboard and Numbers, plus, of course, in the keyboard menu. This patch only works with the US-English version of Mac OS 8.5. It does not yet work with the German version. I will make a patch for the German OS as it becomes available. Disclaimer You use this software at your own risk.

The other one was for OS 8.5, this one patches the German version of Mac OS 8.1. It adds some Austrian data to your system file, *replacing* the corresponding German ones and thus compensating the lack of Austrian localization resources in the Mac OS.

Over time, these batteries are susceptible to a "memory effect", which can reduce their battery capacity. The memory effect can be cured by fully discharging the battery before recharging it. BatteryAmnesia provides a safe, fast and automatic way to deep discharge your PowerBook's battery. BatteryAmnesia bypasses the low battery warning dialogs, and prevents the "soft" sleep brought on by those dialogs. Instead, BatteryAmnesia will run your PowerBook's battery down until the "hard" hardware shutdown occurs, which is at a lower voltage. This provides the best discharge possible without an expensive external battery conditioner. Version 1.5.2 contains the following enhancements: - Fixes Mac OS 8 compatibility bug. Shareware; $10 registration fee suggested. See enclosed docs for more information. It can be downloaded from (http://members.aol.com/jbkezer/shareware.html).

Enclosed are two Sherlock plug-ins for searching Amazon.com books and music. These were created because any of the existing Amazon plug-ins I've tried simply don't work correctly. Generic Amazon plug-ins only search for books, not music, so I created a separate music search. Shortly after creating this plug-in, another amazon music plug-in turned up at a popular web site. In testing, I found that the other book and music plug-ins did not return the full list of hits. In one instance, a music search only returned two items where my music plug-in returned over twenty! In addition, the other plug-ins included a separate search for classical music which didn't work at all because it was searching the books database. My single music plug-in correctly searches both the popular and classical music databases.

This makes it much easier to work with text without reaching the mouse. The following key combinations are allowed: - shift + any arrow: extend the current selection. - option + left/right arrow: move to the previous or next word. - control + left/right arrow or option + up/down arrow: move to the beginning or end of the current line. - shift + option + any arrow: move like option + arrow while extending the selection. - option + delete: delete up to the beginning of the current word (or clear selection). - forward delete or shift + delete: delete the next character (or clear selection). - option + forward delete or shift + option + delete: delete up to the end of the current word (or clear selection). - clear: clear the current selection, if any. - option + clear: delete the current word (or clear selection). * The above tasks should usually be performed by applications, but many of them don't care. Better Edit Keys implements this default behavior in all situations where the application is not already taking care of it, but it does nothing if the application handles the keystrokes by itself. This means that the above keystrokes will not work if the application already handles them. For example recent versions of SimpleText handle the forward delete key by themselves, which also disables the option + forward delete keystroke provided by Better Edit Keys. There is no safe way to override the application's own handling of the keystrokes, so Better Edit Keys is only useful for applications that don't handle them and for generic text editing fields like the ones in dialog windows. New in version 1.1: - Minor changes in the code. Switched the payment method to Kagi and recompiled with CodeWarrior 11. This is $10 shareware. Have fun and support Alex.

Special thanks go to Christoph Sahm for his work in localizing CacheSaver. Please place this alongside the English version already in the archives. About CacheSaver: Like many people, you've probably found that increasing the size of the disk cache in the Memory control panel can improve the performance of many applications, especially web browsers like Netscape Navigator. The disk cache speeds up disk input and output by keeping the contents of files in RAM, rather than immediately reading or writing them on the disk. The problem with using a large disk cache is that when you save information, the data may end up staying in the cache for quite a while before it really gets written to your hard disk. If your Mac crashes before the cache gets saved, your data is lost. CacheSaver addresses this problem by periodically saving (or "flushing") the disk cache, thus minimizing data loss should your Macintosh crash while you are working. You can set CacheSaver to flush the cache whenever your Mac is idle for more than a specific amount of time, or it can do it automatically at regular intervals. CacheSaver also provides a hotkey so you can flush the disk cache manually. In addition to the standard internet archives, information and updates are available at: This program may be included on the Info-Mac and Umich CD-ROMs. #### BINHEX cache-saver-102-fr.hqx **** From: gotow@stclairsw.com Subject: CacheSaver 1.0.2f (French version) Like many people, you've probably found that increasing the size of the disk cache in the Memory control panel can improve the performance of many applications, especially web browsers like Netscape Navigator.

CapsBeep offers users a choice of between one and three beeps as the warning - and plans are already under way to offer custom sound option alternatives to the standard system beep. The "Shift Reverse" option allows the user to temporarily 'reverse' the caps lock key by pressing the shift key to get lowercase characters.

Without CapsOff installed there can be annoying problems when the capslock key is hit by accident. You might type a whole stream of characters in capital letters. Or your password keeps getting refused because you are typing in upper case instead of mixed case. With CapsOff installed hitting the CapsLock key will no longer be a problem. You can configure it to play a simple beep when the key is hit and then block the normal action of the CapsLock so that you still get lowercase letters instead of CAPITALS. At anytime you can enable and disable CapsOff by using a hotkey combination of your choosing. In addition you can have CapsOff show an icon in the menubar when the CapsLock key is down. This acts as a reminder and is especially helpfull if you don't have a capslock light on your keyboard. Enjoy!

Cast Off is a new preference folder cleansing utility. All those old and junky preferences; Cast Off will remove them. How about all those preferences from all that shareware you download, zap them with Cast Off. Make that mess of sometimes thousands of items into a few hundred in minutes with Cast Off. Why is Cast Off better then others like it? Cast Off has been proven to be, smarter, smaller, faster and even easier to use then others like it. Cast Off has a intelligent engine built in that will identify files like nothing else on the market. To make your life even easier Cast Off includes file and folder exclusions. Also, it can be set to ignore everything except true preference files or Apple preference files. For administrative work it allows the creation of log files for every scan. What do the others have that Cast Off doesn't, nothing! How much is it? Cast Off also fits your budget. With the low price of just $10.00 it knocks those other preference folder cleansers out of the ballpark! Order online with the convience of the Kagi credit card processing service. Is Cast Off easy or what. Why should I care about my preference folder? You don¹t have to care. You can let it grow till it has 7,000 items worth over 100 megabytes. Why not keep it clean. Now with Cast Off it isn¹t hard at all. Imagine all those files from those shareware applications you launched and then threw away. Imagine how messy your preference folder could be. If you keep other areas of your computer clutter free, why skip your preference folder? How does Cast Off determine what is orphaned? Cast Off uses two methods to determine what orphaned. First it looks in your desktop database (were a reference to all applications are stored), if it doesn¹t find anything then it moves on to the second step. During the second step it scans your entire hard drive(s) looking for a matching file. If any matching files/applications are found then Cast Off determines that it isn¹t orphaned. If the preference fails both tests then it is considered orphaned. What are file or folder exclusions? A file or folder exclusion is a file or folder that is ignored by Cast Off. So if you want Cast Off to skip over a folder or preference you can set it to in the settings dialog. Cast Off comes with a high level of customization like no other preference cleanser like it.

Ever tried to find the right clipping among a bunch of "Text Clipping 1", "Text Clipping 2", etc? It's not too bad with one clipping, but more than a couple leads to long sessions in the Finder assigning useful names, wasting the time you saved. ClippingNamer helps you manage clippings. Without leaving your current program, you can: * Automatically assign a new name based on the (text) clipping contents. * Automatically create a thumbnail image (icon) for picture clippings. * Popup a dialog that lets you see both ClippingNamer's and the Finder's suggested names, and use either one or a new name you type. * Save text or picture clippings as SimpleText files instead. * Append text clippings to existing files/clippings instead of creating new. You can set any of these modes (or none) as the default, and invoke any of the others with modifier keys (completely customizable). There are several other convenience options as well. With v1.3.2 you can now: * Save the clipboard to a clipping via a new FKEY. * Save the clipboard (or current selection) to a clipping via a new Contextual menu. * Both accessories work even without ClippingNamer installed - they are free standalone utilities. Use either or both as you wish: they make notetaking much easier in programs that don't support dragging clippings to the Desktop, such as Internet Explorer. ClippingNamer is $10 shareware.

Author's email address: jbkezer@kagi.com If you have two or more Macintoshes, you probably notice that the clocks drift apart as time goes by. This can range from being a minor nuisance to a problem, especially if you do a lot of synchronizing between the Macintoshes. ClockSync II synchronizes the clocks between two or more Macintoshes, by setting the clocks of the "Servant"Macintoshes to that of a "Master" Macintosh. ClockSync has two components. The ClockSync Master runs continuously on the "Master" Macintosh, while the ClockSync Servant can be run on any other Macintosh on the network to update its time. All of my utilities can be registered through the Kagi shareware system. Version 1.4.0 has the following enhancements: - Master: Added log window. - Master: Added network timeout setting. - Master: Added ability to hide main window for a faceless application.

CP290 Director is Macintosh software that controls the original X10 home automation computer controlled interface, model number CP290. It completely replaces the Macintosh software that comes with the CP290, and has unique features not found in other Macintosh-based CP290 controllers such as MouseHouse and Xtension. CP290 Director does not have to be running at all times to control the CP290, since it takes advantage of the CP290'S ability to store events for later execution. In addition to the standard CP290 features, CP290 Director supports the following additional features: 1) the ability to specify that an event is to occur at sunrise or sunset (plus or minus a specified time interval); 2) the ability to specify a specific date on which an event is to occur, and optionally the interval in days thereafter that the event should be repeated; and 3) the ability to specify that the event should occur only on even days or on odd days. System requirements: * System 7 through 8.6; not tested with MacOS 9 * Macintosh with at least 4 MB of RAM Release 1.5 adds the ability to print an event listing or save it in a file.

It is a fully functioning version but lacks the interface and tuning capabilities of CPU Doubler. CPU Charger has been configured to optimize the system for best performance, but does not take into account your current system configuration, or the history of previously run applications. Optimization of your system may not be optimal. CPU Charger works exactly the same way that CPU Doubler does. It tries to boost the speed of your computer by as much as 100%. It achieves this performance enhancement by properly managing the computer's throughput. Throughput is defined by the amount of time the processor spends executing process instructions. A process is any piece of software that performs some function on your computer, independent of the system. All applications and some system extension, such as file sharing, run as processes. Simply put, CPU Charger will optimize your system so that each process runs as efficiently as possible on your Macintosh. By wasting less of the processor's precious cycles, your Macintosh will appear to run faster, in some cases by as much as 100% More info available on the following website: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/orchardsw If you have any questions or comments please send email to: 102670.1653@compuserve.com #### BINHEX cpu-view-13.hqx **** From: at@cogsci.soton.ac.uk Subject: CPU-View 1.3 CPU-View 1.3 - This little application is a very useless one.

Since a converted DA will have its own application heap, you can adjust their individual heap setting using Get Info... as you do for applications. You can launch your DA/Application in two different ways. Simply double clicking will run the DA in the very same manner as it ran under the Apple Menu. If the desk accesory has an item called "Open" in its menus, a second form of launch will allow you to open files from the finder whether the DA is presently open or not. This method varies between System 6 and System 7: System 6 users should select the document icon along with the DA/Application (using the shift key with the mouse to select multiple icons). Double-clicking on either icon will then open the desk accessory along with the selected document. Under System 7, the document icon should be dragged on top of DA/Application icon. When the mouse is released, the desk accessory will open the selected document. To use DA Piggyback, you must first copy a desk accessory into the DA Piggyback application with Font/DA mover (press Option while opening the DA and DA Piggyback). Rename DA Piggyback as you like. #### BINHEX dated-folder-26.hqx **** From: "Matthew W. Schmeer" Subject: DatedFolder.script 2.6 This is an update to DatedFolder.script 2.5.

I put this patch together to accomplish a few tasks safely and easily. I believe it does, but I cannot be held liable or accountable by any means if the patch does not work as I expect it to or if it causes some other unanticipated problems with your software, hardware, peripherals, or anything else, including whether or not any warranty and/or licenses are voided by its use. This product is not affiliated with Aladdin Systems, Inc , MindVision Software , Bill Goodman, Cyclos, Michael Hecht, Microsoft Corporation , Apple Computer, Inc., Quinn The Eskimo, or Peter N. Lewis or anyone else other than the author. Do not contact them with problems or questions regarding this patch. Full copyright notices and disclaimers are at the bottom of this document. This patch cannot work properly while virus detection software is running. Please make sure that you have disabled any virus detectors before applying the patch (or allow the process to continue at any virus alerts). To use the patch, simply launch it by double-clicking on its icon in the Finder, or select the icon and then open by typing cmd-o on the keyboard or selecting Open from the File menu. Read the information in the window and then select the Patch button. You will be presented with a dialog box asking for your copy of Stuffit Expander. Navigate through your disk¹s hierarchy to select the appropriate file, and hit either return, enter or use the mouse to click on the Patch button. Even though the patch is designed to leave your original copy unmodified and to create a duplicate copy that is modified, I recommend that you create your own duplicate first and work on that copy. If something goes wrong, you will then still have your original file untouched. This is easier and faster and safer than reinstalling Stuffit Expander from scratch. This patch was developed on an Apple Power Macintosh computer for Stuffit Expander v.5.1 and may not work with any other combination. I appreciate any and all feedback. Part I. Stuffit Expander * resets the internet preferences (set via either Apple¹s Internet * control panel or by the Internet Config * application) to designate Stuffit Deluxe * as the creator application and Stuffit Expander as the helper application for downloaded files. This action takes place whether the end-user has specified those defaults or other options. My patch eliminates Stuffit Expander¹s ability to overwrite those preferences. This is important because Microsoft Internet Explorer * automatically processes downloaded files with the creator application rather than the helper application. Users with both Stuffit Deluxe (or Stuffit Lite) and Stuffit Expander routinely have the full version of the application launched whenever a file is downloaded. Also, some people may prefer not to have the downloads post-processed immediately but would rather translate and decompress the files manually. My patch is designed to allow them to do that. Finally this patch also allows the user to select MindExpander * , Compact Pro *, or some other application to expand the downloaded files without having that choice reset by Stuffit Expander as well. Part II. Aladdin Systems created a new icon for files stuffed in the new version 5 format. The icon has a red dot in the upper left corner. This patch will decrease the size of the dot to 1 pixel but gives the icon a 3-dimensional shaded look as well as a slight overall burgundy tinge to still identify newer-format archives by sight but without the ugly red dot. Part III In the preferences dialog, I updated the look of the Watch Folder icon to appear 3-dimensional, and the Internet panel now uses the Internet Control Panel look rather than that of InternetConfig.

The bundled software is very stable and pretty powerful, but it lacks a feature that's very important for digital camera users: the ability to quickly download all the pictures to disk without any user interaction, making the camera ready for a new series of shots. The DC20 only carries 8 pictures in hi-resolution mode, and they must be trasferred to your computer before you can take more shots. Saving them to disk using the bundled software, however, is way too painful if you need to take more pictures immediately after the first round. The DC20/25 Link utility addresses this problem by providing a powerful, highly automated way to transfer all your pictures to disk.

Desktop Resetter is a simple program used to store (remember) the icon and window locations and sizes on the desktop. This information can be restored (reset) at a later time, should they change or move, etc. Desktop Resetter is an application only, it uses no extensions or control panels. This helps reduce the possibility of it conflicting with other programs. It only operates when you launch it and doesn't effect other applications other than the Finder itself (the desktop application). Requirements Any Power Mac or 68k Mac running Mac OS 7.6 or higher. This program is Mac OS 8.0, 8.6, and 9.0 savvy! Desktop Resetter works great with iMacs, Powerbooks and G4's. What's New in 2.2.1? € Fixes a problem on some machines (especially laptops with PCMCIA cards) where the desktop was never remembered. This problem was introduced with 2.2. € No need to re-register whenever a new update is downloaded from this point on. € An 'Extras' tab was added to the settings box. This lets you choose how Desktop Resetter remembers the icons on the desktop. It also allows you to turn the grid options of the desktop back on after a reset. Some users have problems with this (where the icons would go back), so it is now your option to have it on or not. What's New in 2.2? € Desktop Resetter now remembers icons and windows even if they have the same name, or if the name changes! Older versions didn't work properly if icons had identical names. € Fixed a bug in OS 9 where buttons wouldn't be reset. It should now reset icons and windows regardless of the configuration of the monitor. € The popup windows should work better with multiple monitors when resetting. € Added more menus to allow more control with Desktop Resetter, and now there are default buttons in the dialog for power users. € All new icon. If you are a veteran Desktop Resetter user, it may not show up until the next time you rebuild your desktop. € Many minor fixes and enhancements. #### BINHEX desktopjanitor-102.hqx **** From: hiroshi_shimase@sunshine.net Subject: DesktopJanitor 1.0.2 DesktopJanitor stores your desktop and restores its status, including Desktop Theme, Window condition (status), Icon locations, Screen settings (Height, Width, Depth), Application Switcher status.

DoubleTouch after clicking desktop, you can do the following. - Shade all Finder's windows - Hide all visible applications except Finder It is useful when you find icon on desktop ! CleanDesktop has option to show hidden application by CleanDesktop. === Fixed Bugs === - A wrong message - When using non-registered copy of DoubleTouch vers2.2.2 over 10 days, DoubleTouch displays a message. But this mesage is wrong. This message is "DoubleTouch failed to remve codes". It is essentially right that DoubleTouch shows message for non-registered user in this case. === Changes === - HoldKey's work - Until vers 2.2.2, if you set HoldKey, you have to press when you use DoubleTouch. For example, it is needed when you want to shade all windows by AllWindowsKey. Since this version (2.3), if you set HoldKey, this key is just needed when you shade front window. i.e. When you use AllWindowsKey or OtherWindowsKey with DoubleTouchKey, you don't have to press HoldKey if you set it. - Remove DialogOption - It was to shade windows behind dialog.

So I created the Dvorak Lefty layout. I popped the keys on my PowerBook 1400c and arranged them in a mirror image of the Dvorak layout, provided by Dvorak International (thanks, guys). I then used ResEdit to create the KCHR resource, remapping all the keys to the new layout (including the option & shift-option characters). I never learned to touch-type, but have managed to get around 40 wpm staring at the keyboard. I have been able to catch up to that with less finger strain with this layout. The What This is a horizontally flipped version of the ANSI Standard Dvorak layout. The Dvorak Lefty layout is a simply KCHR resource created with ResEdit. It is System 7 compatible and should create no problems or conflicts with any software. This layout is FREE. Copy, distribute, and post it as you please.

EjectDisk is an extremely useful utility. With the touch of a key you can eject any removable media from your computer, ranging from the humble floppy to the latest DVD. You can even open and close the CD/DVD tray, and automatically eject a CD at shutdown. EjectDisk is similar to the Command-Y function of the Finder in function only--unlike that command, EjectDisk can evict storage from your desktop from within any program, and you don't have to select the disk beforehand. EjectDisk 3.2 adds support for a number of CD-ROM drives which EjectDisk failed to work with in the past. It also increases the number of drives you can individually specify (from 4 to 12), and fixes a bug which could cause EjectDisk to miss disks when ejecting all disks of a particular type. #### BINHEX eject-me-not-10.hqx **** From: pmessias@parkbenchsoftware.com Subject: Eject-Me-Not 1.0 - Stop ghosted ejected disks Eject-Me-Not 1.0 Eject-Me-Not is an extension that disables the Finder's "Eject" command and "steers" users toward the proper use of the "Put Away" command for removing floppy disks (and other removables).

So why even bother? They illustrate several scripting techniques I haven't seen used elsewhere, that may be useful if you want to explore AppleScript, and if you want to tinker with them it's easy - open with the Script Editor and tinker away. Drop an application on the main script, and it will reset itself so that all future drops (of anything but a single application) mark text files as created by that application; it will also, via the helper "wait for" script, make its own icon match the resulting files. It's fast enough to be fairly painless, it's public domain, it uses only standard scripting components (aka OSAXen) and if you script you might find something useful. Lemme know if it breaks on you, I'll try to help fix it.

FileT&C Pro is Internet Config aware and has a couple of options to change, according to name extension, following the Internet Config File Mapping: you may instruct it to change only files matching the File Mapping or just use your setting when there are no matches inside File Mapping.

You may easily modify this Database... FileT&C Pro has some useful hot keys for changing, on the fly and skipping any dialog, by using the preferred type/creator set in the preferences and for modifying the preferences before changing. You can also instruct it to ignore during its performance, some kind of files or to treat only some other specific types.

What FunKeys allows you to do, basically, is "program" those function keys on the top of your keyboard to do things. (The keys F1, F2, F3, F4, etc. They are only on extended keyboards, which most Macs have). Most of us Mac users never even use those things, as they are unsupported by many programs; FunKeys not only gives them a use, but it also makes them really useful. With FunKeys installed, you can program all 15 of them to either open files/applications, execute AppleScripts, envoke macros (FKEYs), or even type text. For example, F1 can open America On-Line, F2 can open Microsoft Word, F3 can turn off the sound, F4 can quit all open applications, and F5 can type "Sincererely yours." It's entirely up to you. In order to take advantage of the AppleScript functions, you will need to have System 7.5 or later installed; otherwise, you can simply use FunKeys to open your favorite applications and FKEYs at a blast. Hundreds of FKEYs are freely available from sources such as America On-Line, Info-Mac, and other Mac software sites. FKEYs have normally been installed to Command-Shift-x keys. FunKeys can also switch over to a certain application if it is already running. And, best of all, you can still use the Function Keys for their regular uses, at the same time that FunKeys is running. Version 1.5 adds many new features, such as the ability to open any kind of file, not just applications. This includes Control Panels, Documents, and Sounds---everything. It also allows different Function Keys to type text. #### BINHEX garbage-collector201e.hqx **** From: Masato Saito Subject: Submitting GarbageCollector I want to regist my new software to Info-Mac archive. #### BINHEX generator-003.hqx **** From: Richard Bannister titan@indigo.ie Subject: Generator - Sega Genesis/Megadrive emulator Sega Genesis/Megadrive emulator for the Macintosh.

It moves non-busy items in "Temporary Items" to a folder on your desktop called "Stuff OS 9 left lying around", then quits. Disposition of the files recovered is up to you.

It may or may not work on previous or future versions. It works by removing the 'lner' resources from the Location Manager's Control Panel, Extension, and Control Strip Module. These resources regulate the software to run only on certain machines. To use, simply run a normal installation of Apple's Location Manager. After restarting with extensions off, run this patch and follow the dialog boxes to apply the hack. Restart again. That's it! Use of this patcher is completely at your own risk. I accept no responsibility for what may result from using this patch or running the Location Manager on machines it was not designed for.

LogTimer is a System Extension which simply writes the time for System startup, Restart and Shut down into a logfile on the Desktop. To use LogTimer INIT you have to drop it on top of your system folder and it goes to the extensions folder automatically. After restart you will find a file called 'LogTime' on your desktop. This file can be opened with Simple Text to see the log times. The file is created automatically if it does not already exist. Everytime you start your system, or you shut your system down or you reboot your system an entry is added. I wrote this little Extension for one of the registered users of CopyPaste who had this idea. It is a quick hack, but it does not patch any trap and costs no CPU time except at startup and shut down. Therefore it is very unlikely to cause any problems. LogTimer is Freeware, which means it is free of charge, free for any non commercial use, free from support and free from any guarantee. LogTimer is released to the public as an advertising agent for CopyPaste, the productivity tool for your Mac, downloadable from http://www.bridge1.com.

These scheduled tasks include: Launching Applications, Files and AppleScripts; Quitting individual applications or alternatively quitting all currently running processes; Rename and Delete any File or Folder; Mount remote AppleShare volumes; Copy Files or Folders to mounted AppleTalk volumes; Unmount nominated AppleShare volumes; Restart or shutdown the Macintosh, and sending eMail. $39 Shareware from MacSOS, Australia http://www.garvan.unsw.edu.au/gerham/macsos/ #### BINHEX mac-identifier-302.hqx **** From: support@fluxsoft.com Subject: Mac Identifier 3.0.2 Mac Identifier 3.0.2 is a shareware control pane ($5) that puts back the model name and icon identification lost in the "About This Computer" ("About This Macintosh" under Mac OS 7.5) window under Mac OS versions 7.5 and later. It also brings back the model name to the flagship naming service on AppleTalk networks, allowing network administrators to know which Macintosh is which on their network. Mac Identifier 3.0.2 is now an application control panel that fully supports the Appearance manager and Navigation Services. It fixes bugs and updates the database of names and icons (including all the fruit-colored for the iMac) to June 1999.

Users are limited to launching and using applications, documents, control panels, and Apple Menu Items made available through customized setups. Users can be restricted on Open and Save actions to a floppy disk, personal folder, drop folders, open only folders, and public folders. Mac Manager¹s interface totally emulates Finder. Users can set custom desktop styles such as 3-D, Hi­Tech, or Kids, and can perform multiple simultaneous file­copy operations. Mac Manager is easy to use and simple to set up using guided step­by­step on screen instructions. Mac Manager can control a user¹s daily time, printer pages, inserting of floppy disks, and the ejecting of CDs. A detailed log tracks ALL user activity, including time on applications. A hard disk encryption utility restricts all access if booting from another System disk. Mac Manager is the perfect solution for homes, businesses, and schools where computers are shared. Private files and data can be kept secure and away from prying eyes. No more loss of data, resetting control panels or chooser settings, reinstalling system software or trying to find files. Mac Manager is compatible with System 7.0­7.6 and is Accelerated for the Power Macintosh. Site license editions support and take full advantage of all Macintosh networks, and include a complete set of network management tools provided by the application Net Manager. Tools to control all networked computers from any workstation include shutdown, restart, launch, quit, copy, delete, rebuild desktop, mount, unmount, empty trash, set clock, lock keyboard, login, logoff, and more. Demo Differences: 1) The demo only runs for one hour each day. At the end of the hour, the demo automatically quits and returns to Finder. Other running applications are unaffected. 2) The demo does not use Mac Manager¹s disk protection features that prevent users from booting with another system disk or holding down the Shift key to bypass extensions. 3) Each group is limited to five users and only six groups are allowed. 4) The hard disk encryption option is not included. 5) Network management tools (included with all site license versions) are not included. 6) Mail Manager is not included.

Four are scripting additions, File IO, XCMD OSAX, Copy File, ResMover and they are installed in the Scripting Additions folder in the Extensions Folder. Once the renaming is done, you can remove them, but if you are an AppleScript buff, you might want to check them out. The readme for XCMD OSAX is also included. The three remaining files, including this README are installed wherever you want them. Requires: * System 7.5.x * AppleScript 1.1.x * Finder Scripting Extension * At least 4 megs of RAM I'm sure that by now, most serious Mac users have upgraded to at least System 7.5. If not, what are you waiting for?! But any System 7.5.x user will tell you that once you do, you'll lose the individuality of your Mac. All the machine names have been replaced by either " Macintosh," " Power Macintosh," or " PowerBook" depending on the kind of Mac you have. There are a few programs out there that help to remedy this problem, but unfortunately, they are memory eating extensions that must always be loaded to work. MacNamer is an AppleScript applet that uses two non-standard Scripting Additions (included), and Finder scriptability (included with System 7.5.x) to edit your active system file. Don't worry, I've tested this out on a few machines running a different versions of system 7.5.x, and it works fine. It even backs up the old copy of the system file for you. And, not only will MacNamer give your Mac back it's real name, but any name you want (up to 255 charcters)! To use it, simply double-click on the MacNamer icon, and let it do the rest. As with any resource editing, ALWAYS disable virus protection BEFORE you run the program. It won't hurt the original if you don't, but you could and probably will damage the edited version. After it finishes, it will restart your Mac. If you have any comments or bug reports, send them to marcus@ocala.cs.miami.edu. This program is free for individual use. Please, if you want to put this on an archive CD, let me know. Also, check out my web site and library of cgis that I've written for UNIX and Mac at http://ocala.cs.miami.edu/~jmcla. If you would like the source for this program, or would like to give me a project to work on, email me at marcus@ocala.cs.miami.edu.

I needed this for myself (to control some Macs where I may not always have a mouse available), so I put it together very quickly and decided others may find it useful. I hope somebody can make use of it! For detailed instructions visit the following web page: http://wrench.et.ic.ac.uk/adrian/software/ The archive also includes a text file with the instructions, but here's a trimmed down version to get you started... Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~ Drag the MouseKeys extensions into your Extensions folder and restart. Using MouseKeys ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MouseKeys can be activated by pressing the control+option+command keys. You should see a small black 'thing' appear in the top-left corner of your main screen. You can now move the cursor using the arrow keys. Pressing the space bar will act as if the mouse button has been pressed down. Press the space bar again to 'let go' of the mouse button. MouseKeys will automatically deactivate after five seconds if no key has been pressed, or as soon as any key is pressed (apart from the arrow keys, the space bar and the modifier keys: control, option, command, shift). It can also be deactivated immediately by pressing the three modifier keys (control+option+command) down together again. Any problems, please check the web page above.

"Navi iRae" just looks for an opened file with the same name as the window's one. If it finds several opened files with the same name, it displays a menu with every file match in submenus. Some applications, when opening a file, copy its content in a temporary file, and then close it (eg. Photoshop, Illustrator, Canvas, GraphicConverter·). In version 1.1.x it made them impossible to see for Navi iRae. But not anymore ! Now Navi iRae now looks for recently opened files to find them. Beware ! There's not complete guarantee this is the real file. Beware, for best results you'll need an utility that keeps track of recently opened files. You have several choices supported by Navi iRae : Apple Menu Options : no special setting required OtherMenu :no special setting required BeHierarchic 4.0 : be sure to check the option "Apple Menu Option Compatible" Minimum requirements : Mac OS 8.5 and PPC Price : free ! New to this version (1.7) Navi iRae is now multi-users saavy. Added support for Corel PhotoPaint.

Or, like most of us, are you right handed and envy the Lefties who can mouse around and delete with their other hand? Well, here is your solution! No CapsLock, ` Del is a keyboard layout that redefines two keys on your keyboard. First, it disables the caps lock key- just forget about it. Second, it redefines the ` key to serve as a delete key (the original delete key remains unaffected, as does shift-` , the ~ character). On most keyboards the ` key is on upper left; thus with No CapsLock, ` Del active, we right handers can manipulate the mouse with our right hand, and easily delete with our left hands. I quickly found this advantageous, particularly when working with graphics. installation: Simply drag the No CapsLock, ` Del file over the System Folder and the Mac OS will place it in your System file (option-drag it to retain a copy of it). Next, open your Keyboard Control Panel and select No CapsLock, ` Del as a selected keyboard layout. If you have Mac OS 8.x, a keyboard icon will display on your menu bar from which you can alternately select keyboard layouts, for example if you really need to use caps lock or ` character, reselect the standard U.S. layout. To dispense with the keyboard icon on the menu bar, deselect all other keyboard layouts in the Keyboard Control Panel except for No CapsLock, ` Del. shareware: I expect others may find this keyboard layout as helpful as I have, so I decided to share it with others. If you agree that it speeds your work and saves miles of finger travel, then please put a couple of dollars in an envelope and send it to the address below - that'll buy a fresh cup of coffee to keep me programming for another day.

This is a change from the way menus worked in previous versions of the system software, where the menus would always go away after the user let go of the mouse button. Noflet is a control panel which is designed to disable or adjust this dubious "feature." Additionally, it includes an option to have menus automatically open whenever the mouse pointer is over the menu bar, with no clicking required. Noflet 2.2.1 changes the name of the program, at the request of E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, which owns the "Teflon" trademark. Noflet currently runs properly only under Mac OS 8.0 and 8.1.

Norton Utilities has proved to be written well enough that it has not been obsoleted by new system software releases or new hardware. As a result, it has recently been warning people that their Macintosh clocks may be wrong. This can be unnerving when the very reason you are running Norton Utilities is because your computing world is coming down all around you. NU Fixer is an extension that simply changes the date that Norton Utilities uses for checking your Macintosh clock.

It manages the scanning process and allows you to perform various transformations on the scanned image. The new Appearance Extension introduced with Mac OS 8 changed the system's internal behavior in a subtle way that caused Ofoto's popup menus to break. These popups are critical user interface elements for setting up the parameters of a scan. OS8foto is a small extension that supplies the behavior that Ofoto expects so that the popups can work again. System requirements: * Only works on systems with the Appearance Extension installed. The Appearance Extension *can* be installed on pre-Mac OS 8 systems (how far back, I'm not certain; probably all variants of System 7.5). * Has no effect if Ofoto is not running.

Mardis email: What is it? OSL Handler is an AppleScript applet which, after determining that you¹re running System 8.0 or later, searches your Extensions folder for a copy of ObjectSupportLib and, if found, offers you‹the user‹the options of deleting it (recommended), moving it to the Trash, or leaving it alone. Why do I need it? ObjectSupportLib is a shared library used by many applications. Prior to the introduction of System 8, it was a separate file which was installed in the Extensions folder. Installers for applications that required ObjectSupportLib often installed a copy, just to make sure it was there. Beginning with System 8, however, the functionality of ObjectSupportLib was included in the System file. Most installers, though, don¹t know this and still install a copy of ObjectSupportLib. Unfortunately, its presence is almost certainly bound to cause problems with your Mac. For instance, you may see the Finder repeatedly load the desktop and be unable to launch any applications. If this happens, you¹ll probably find that your Finder preferences file has been corrupted and all settings have reverted to their default values; the only way to get your values to ³stick² again is to Trash the Finder preferences file, restart your computer and then set your values. Something of a pain, all because of that one little file. How do I use it? OSL Handler may be run at any time by double clicking its icon. However, since most installers which place anything inside the System Folder at least suggest, if not require, that you restart your computer, the best place to put OSL Handler is in the Shutdown Items folder inside the System Folder; that way, it will usually run and check for an ObjectSupportLib just before shutdown or restart. More complete details on the use of OSL Handler are available in the TexEdit format file, "OSL Handler Read Me". Requirements If you¹ve gotten this far, you probably realize by now that OSL Handler requires AppleScript, and that you should only use it with System 8 or later. That¹s it. Testing If you want to test OSL Handler, place a copy of any file (not a folder) in your Extensions folder and rename it ³ObjectSupportLib² (without the quotes). Double click on OSL Handler¹s icon and, assuming that you¹re running System 8 or later, OSL Handler will do its thing. Caveats There are only two that I¹m aware of. First, some installers seem to by-pass the normal shutdown routine, such that an item in the Shutdown Items folder won¹t be run. Obviously, if OSL Handler isn¹t run, it can¹t check for a copy of ObjectSupportLib. Fortunately, for me at least, this is a rare occurrence. The second is more insidious. A friend told me today that he found a copy of ObjectSupportLib in the System Folder rather than in the Extensions folder where it¹s supposed to be, and that it was active. I suppose I could have OSL Handler look throughout the System Folder but most people, I suspect, wouldn¹t want to wait as long as would be required for such a search. Shareware OSL Handler is being released as shareware. No annoying reminders. No expiration. Just a simple request that you mail $1.00 to me at: W.S.

Since the introduction of Mac OS 8, ObjectSupportLib is integrated in the system software and having two OSLs present could lead to strange effects or even crashes. So now there arises a need to check after every third-party software install procedure whether ObjectSupportLib was wrongfully added. OSL Watchdog does this for you automatically, after you have put the program or its alias in the Startup Items folder (which is in your System folder). If Apple should ever release a new separate OSL library, this will be seen by OSL Watchdog and then you can easily adapt the script of this program following the instructions then given. OSL Watchdog can only be used - and is only useful - with Mac OS 8.0 or newer. -- Ton Brand Ton's Software¨ http://www.spidernet.nl/~ton_brand #### BINHEX oslantibody-10.hqx **** From: tjb@inch.com Subject: OSL Antibody 1.0 OSL Antibody will check your system (OS8 or better only) for the presence of Object Support Library. If it finds the OSL, it will trash it. Since OS8 rolled the functionality of OSL into the System, and many installers also place the OSL into the extensions folder no matter what version of system software you are running, this is a good way of avoiding potential problems and getting rid of an unwanted file. System requirements: 1. OS8 should be installed. If you are running any system version lower than OS8, this script will throw out a dialog telling you that you need to be running OS8, and then quit when you dismiss the dialog. If you are not running OS8, you probably want to use Object Support Library, anyway. 2. Applescript must be installed on your system. This is a standard part of the MacOS these days, so it should be installed if you are running any version of System 7.5 or higher.

Main feature since 1.0: - Change the configuration of TCP/IP, PPP, and other OpenTransport control panels without having to open a Control Panel. New features in 2.0: - You can Export, Import, Delete, and Rename an OpenTransport configuration via AppleScript - very useful when moving configurations from one machine to another or installing a set of configurations onto multiple machines. - Using program linking, you can execute an OTConfigs command on a remote machine. Sample scripts that exhibit each feature are included. A few of them are... - "Export All Configs" Executing this script exports all configurations currently available. - "Import Configs" You can drop any type of OpenTransport configuration files onto this script application. Dropped files will be imported by appropriate OpenTransport Control Panels. In order to move OpenTransport configurations from one machine to another, you execute "Export All Configs", move the folder containing the configuration files to the target machine, and drop it onto "Import Configs". All configurations will be available on the target machine. Using program linking and scriptable Finder, you could install configurations without seeing a target machine. OTConfigs is a $10 shareware. However, you can use all features without paying a shareware fee, except that you can't execute a command on a remote machine without obtaining a registration code.

It is a carbonized application that runs natively under Mac OS X. Pads is as simple to use as either Note Pad or Stickies, yet provides significant new features. Pads gives users the ability to organize their notes and use them more effectively. Features: - Notes can be given titles. - Notes can be categorized. - Pages can be "torn off" so that multiple pages can be viewed at once (like Stickies). These tear-off pages can be closed later without destroying the original notes. - Standard Macintosh features such as styled text and drag-and-drop editing are supported. Text wrapping (on by default) can be turned off. - New notes can be created automatically when text selections, clippings or files are dragged into the Pads window. - The interface is intuitive and can be customized by the user - Pages can be locked to protect against accidental deletion or modification.

When you reach the end of a document, often the page has scrolled up just a few lines rather than a whole page... and you have to scan back over a whole page you've already read to find the new lines at the end. With PageMark, you won't waste time figuring out where you are, since the flashing indicator shows you exactly where the previous page ended. PageMark can also be configured to flash the marker when scrolling reaches the top of a document, or the left or right margin, with different settings for different applications. The "flashes" popup menu lets you select the number of flashes; selecting "No flashes" will turn off the marker flashes for the selected application. If the "Persistent bar" checkbox is on, PageMark leaves the marker on, clearing it when you press a key or the mouse button. PageMark requires Macintosh System 7.0 or later. The PageMark Extension is packaged in a Control Panel. PageMark works with almost all Macintosh windows which have scrollbars, including Netscape and Internet Explorer windows (the only major exceptions appear to be Finder windows under MacOS 8 and the Alpha text editor). PageMark is $5 shareware. You can test PageMark for 30 days without registering; after 30 days the PageMark Extension is disabled.

Lichtenauer" Subject: Passenger 1.2 Server Account/Password Tool Passenger is a server account creation and password generation tool that will import tab and comma-delimited text files, ASIP 6.3 XML Users, and folder names to create account information and passwords for AppleShare IP 5 - 6.3, Macintosh Manager, Eudora Internet Mail Server, WebSTAR FTP, WebSTAR Web, Edmark TNV, Master Spell and Master Key. Usernames can be formulated from names using tags. Users may also create user folders and set their privileges or define their own export formats for most tab or comma-delimited export. Passenger uses an algorithm for passwords so that they can be regenerated. Standard Edition ($60) offers importing and processing up to 150 user accounts at once. Professional Edition ($90) offers no hard limit on the number of users that can be imported and processed. Only limited by RAM and disk space. PowerPC required, Mac OS 8.5 or higher recommended. New in this version: - Added Export for AppleShare IP 5.0 - 6.2 - Added Group Folder creation (allowing for Edmark True Network Version account creation) - Added Group import level to folder import - Fixed Pupil Chooses Password in Master Key and Master Spell (setting was reversed) - Fixed check on master password for ASIP export - tags no longer import empty fields but instead completely omit - Fixed minor issues with import limitations http://macinmind.com/Passenger/ #### BINHEX password-please.hqx **** From: scottf@macconnect.com Subject: Password Please Password Please is a simple program that asks for a password at startup. It offers a limited form of security for the Macintosh user. It's only function is to provide two different users their own passwords on a single computer. It's free, it's simple, and it's self-explanatory. It was developed and tested on a 604e with OS 8.5.1. There are no guarantees that it will work on any other systems, but I have no reason to believe that it won't.

Then this AppleScript is for you! Password Protect Folders (PPF) is designed to passsword protect personal folders on local or remote disks. One or more folders are dragged and dropped onto the AppleScript, assigned a user defined password and then made invisble. Folders are re-made visible by relaunching the application, selecting one or more folders in a single dialog box and then entering the correct password. A text file is maintained to keep track of the locations of all currently hidden folders. Offers a level of security sufficient for most home or business uses. Version 1.4.7 adds bullets during password specification (by popular demand!) #### DIRECTORY pb **** #### BINHEX pc-setup-217.hqx **** From: Randall Venhola Subject: pc Setup 2.1.7 DOS/Windows Drivers for Apple/Reply Compatibility cards pc Setup 2.1.7 is drivers for the DOS and PC compatibility cards created by Apple and Reply to operate in a Macintosh computer.

You can watch how much CPU time each process uses, adjust the CPU time requested by each process, and look at any piece of information available through the Process Manager. The Process Manager (available in MacOS System 7 and later) maintains a dozen or so pieces of information about each running process (normally an application); many fine utilities show a subset of this information. My personal motivation for writing Peek-a-Boo was that no existing utility showed precisely the subset of Process Manager information I needed to know at a given time. So I made sure that Peek-a-Boo can show any piece of information available via the Process Manager; preferences can be edited to view only those pieces of information you need. And, with the Special Technology of Peek-a-Boo ST, you can now adjust the priorities of processes to customize which processes get more processor time. Peek-a-Boo 1.6 offers a new Apple Event interface for programmers. CSM Pack and ramBunctious both use different aspects of this interface. Peek-a-Boo 1.6 allows you to start typing a process name and it selects that process. This feature has been frequently requested, and we're glad to announce its availability. Peek-a-Boo 1.6 also allows left- and right-arrow keypresses to cycle through processes in the order that they're located in memory. This can make it easier to select specific processes when you're trying to make a contiguous range of memory available. Several minor bugs have been fixed. #### BINHEX peek-a-boo-16.hqx **** From: Bob Clark Subject: Peek-a-Boo 1.6 Peek-a-Boo 1.6 is a $20 utility to monitor and manipulate all running processes. You can watch and adjust how much CPU time each process uses. You can view any piece of information available through the Process Manager, sorting processes by a variety of attributes. Peek-a-Boo "Special Technology" can adjust how much of the CPU a program is allowed to use. For example, if a web browser is using up too much CPU time when it should be idling, Peek-a-Boo can lower that process's priority. Alternatively, if a number-crunching program in the background needs more CPU time, Peek-a-Boo can raise its priority. Peek-a-Boo is well-suited to this task since it both shows CPU usage and adjusts it, so you can see what processes need their priorities changed, and you can watch how well the adjustments worked. Peek-a-Boo does not need to be running for Special Technology to take effect: once a process's priority is adjusted, it remains set until it's adjusted again. Peek-a-Boo lets you open CPU history windows to track how much processor power a process uses, and logging windows for more detailed CPU and memory usage analysis, including the ability to save the results to a tab-delimited log file. **** What is new in Peek-a-Boo 1.6 **** Peek-a-Boo has implemented an Apple Event interface to enable third-party programs to use Peek-a-Boo's Special Technology feature to set process priorities. Another Clarkwood Software product, CSM Pack, includes a module that uses this interface to set priorities using a control strip module. This Apple Event interface, and an earlier one for telling Peek-a-Boo about Temporary Memory usage, are now available for programmers using a newly-available SDK. Peek-a-Bo 1.6 allows you to start typing a process name and it selects that process. This feature has been frequently requested, and we're glad to announce its availability. Peek-a-Boo 1.6 also allows left- and right-arrow keypresses to cycle through processes in the order that they're located in memory. This can make it easier to select specific processes when you're trying to make a contiguous range of memory available.

PRAM Battery Checker is a program which will inform you if your computerÕs PRAM battery has died. What is a PRAM Battery? The PRAM battery is a small battery inside your computer that allows your computer to remember certain settings even when the power is turned off. They have a limited lifetime and usually last a couple of years, but can die much sooner. What can happen if my PRAM battery dies? Your computer can forget what time it is, forget which disk to start up from, forget your monitorÕs settings or not start up at all. Why would I want to use this program? If you are a system administrator for a large lab of computers you will like a tool to help you find the source of many common problems quickly. Dead batteries can cause a variety of problems for users. You may want to place it on your parentÕs computers since it has been my experience that many parents arenÕt computer savvy and will work through the problems caused by dead PRAM batteries as opposed to replacing them. #### BINHEX pram-inspector-11.hqx **** From: Alexandre.Trottier@Videotron.ca Subject: PRAM Inspector 1.1 % About PRAM: Various settings need to be preserved when the Macintosh is off so they will still be present at the next system startup. This information is kept in parameter RAM (PRAM), which is stored in the clock chip together with the current date and time setting. The clock chip is powered by a battery when the system is off, thereby preserving all the settings stored in it. PRAM Inspector lets you see exactly what is stored in your PRAM, so you can detect PRAM problems by yourself. % DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION: PRAM Inspector v1.1 is distributed as freeware. You may upload this program to any online service, bulletin board, network, or the Internet, as long as the program is not modified. You may NOT make copies of this program for any commercial purpose. You must get permission to include this program on CD-ROM, floppy disk, etc. http://pages.infinit.net/trottier/ #### BINHEX pre-version.hqx **** From: jcr2@cornell.edu Subject: Pre Version, a lifesaver for data This control panel keeps previous saved versions of any kind of document you tell it to. If you've ever deleted a paragraph or a file and then, three or four days later, wish you hadn't, you'll like this. Tell it what to track, e.g. all Illustrator documents in the graphics folder (but not in the scratch folder), all WordPerfect documents in the papers folder, and all FileMaker documents anywhere on your disk. Tell it how many versions to keep. Then, every time you save changes to a document, Pre Version rescues the earlier version from being overwritten. Keep as many versions as you want. By comparison, Alladin's commercial FlashBack requires you to specify each document (not each kind of document) that you want to keep previous versions of. I was glad to see that Pre Version runs fine under OS 8.1, even though it dates from 1992. It was posted on archives earlier, with the docs in MacWrite II format, and I think not many people saw how valuable a saftey net it is. So, with the permission of the author, I've printed the docs to a reader format, and am resubmitting it to Mac archives. Shareware $35. I'm not making any money from this, but it's one of my all-time-favorite utilities.

Under Mac OS 8 or newer, it provides the option to remove it. Under System 7.x, it warns of the absence of OSL, or the presence of an obsolete version. The script was written to deal with the fact that many software installer packages install OSL even though it should not be present under Mac OS 8 or newer (because a more recent version of OSL is already in the System file), and also to deal with the fact that many packages install older, defective versions of OSL over the most recent version. Purge OSL requires AppleScript, the scriptable Finder and the standard Apple Choose File and Display Dialog scripting additions. Earlier versions of Purge OSL have been tested with AppleScript 1.1 and System 7.6 and AppleScript 1.1.2 and Mac OS 8.0.

Holder" Subject: QuickScrap 1.2 QuickScrap (QS) can do things to make your life so much easier when using your Macintosh. Have you ever wanted to be able to easily store a piece of information from any document you're reading or editing? Here's how it's done with and without QuickScrap: Without QuickScrap: - select the information - type Command-C to copy - switch to finder or use the apple menu - open your other application or scrapbook - type Command-V to paste in the info - switch back to the first application - continue where you left off With QuickScrap: - select the info - type your QS hotkey - continue With QuickScrap, you can send the data on the clipboard instantly to a scrapbook file, a ScrapIt Pro file or a QuickScrap file by pressing a key (or keys) of your choice! The QuickScrap file can be used as a multiple clipboard containing as many as 100 items (you choose how many items it will hold). You can have QuickScrap automatically copy any selection you've made in any document you're working on and send the data directly to a scrap file with one keystroke. Another handy feature of QuickScrap is that you can set a "Hotkey" to allow you to type a quick note (or edit text on the clipboard) and send it to a scrap file without having to leave the application you're currently in. You can set another key to open any scrap file, display all the items in a gallery view or alphabetical list view and allow you to select an item and instantly have it pasted into whatever document you're editing. New features added in version 1.2: New interface (resize & move window), bug fixes (correctly checks for maximum scrap file size now), Special Applications list now works properly. Now works with ScrapIt Pro v5.5. Will create name from first characters of text when copying text to a scrap file. #### BINHEX quicktrash-103.hqx **** From: slim0001@earthlink.net Subject: QuickTrash1.0.3 About QuickTrash... QuickTrash enables you to move a file, a set of files, a folder or a set of folders to Trash Folder with a point-and-click while your other hand is holding down a specific key combination to enable the feature. It is great when you have lots of files to remove and they are scattered all over or you have many windows opened so that you can't dig out the Trash to dump the files. How to install... QuickTrash is an INIT program that goes into Extension Folder of your Macintosh. After download, decode '.hqx' file, unstuff '.sit' file, then you will have a folder containing the program and other information. Move QuickTrash to your System Folder and click okay to move it into the Extension Folder. Restart your computer. How to operate... When you are on Finder, press down Control Key with Option Key. The arrow cursor should be changed to something else. Click with a mouse on the file you want to delete. If the cursor is not changed with the key combination or the file doesn't move to Trash when it clicked, maybe your machine is not configured to work with this version. Check the requirement again... To remove a set of files or folders, while QuickTrash is activated(combo-key), select files as you would do normally when you are in the finder(rubber band method). Requirements...

The pre OS 8.5 Finder uses the mounted disk order. The Finder 8.5 or higher places the disk icons according to the disk's free space, with the startup disk first. Note: The changes are temporary, the original positions will be used when you restart your Macintosh or if you run an installer that quits all applications before doing installation. To place your disk icons as previous Finder did it, just copy the Applet into the "Startup Items" folder. To restore the originial disk positions just restart your Mac without Reorder Disk Icons in your "Startup Items" folder. #### BINHEX replace-101.hqx **** From: jwwalker@kagi.com Subject: Replace! 1.0.1 When you save a file and get the "Replace existing ?" dialog, this extension will make the Replace button, rather than the Cancel button, be the default.

Walker #### BINHEX reset-serial-channel-11.hqx **** From: Lance Drake Subject: ResetSerialChannel 1.1 ---------------------------------------------------- ResetSerialChannel is FREEWARE - there is no charge and distribution is encouraged under the condition that nothing about the application or accompanying documentation be changed. ---------------------------------------------------- ResetSerialChannel is a utility application that will help you get back on track if, for some reason, the application you are using to communicate via a serial channel dies, is 'forced-quit' or otherwise abandons one of your serial channels without it being closed. The result is that when you attempt to re-connect, the request fails because the operating system reports to your application that the serial channel is already in use. Of course, this is not so. In some cases, it is required that you reboot the computer to alleviate this situation. That is, until now. Launch ResetSerialChannel, select the serial channel you wish to reset, click on the reset button and the channel is 'closed'. If an error is encountered, the number of the error is reported in the messages area. If the channel was already closed, this is reported to you which may seem like useless information, but it can be a clue to the fact that, perhaps, there is something else wrong with your setup such as a cable connection, power to your modem, etc. As noted in the instructions, if you were connected via Apple Remote Access, PPP or some other connection intermediary, you should tell that software to 'Disconnect'. Do this as you would normally do when finished with your connection. Comments and suggestions are always welcome. Please eMail lance@drake.org ---------------------------------------------------- Due to time and legal considerations, technical questions concerning serial connections, modems, etc. cannot be entertained.

And it runs on any Mac, 68k or PowerPC, with System 7.0 or later. No more waiting for MacOS X or Rhapsody. Even in Mac OS 8, if you hold down a menu in the Finder, processes will not continue in the background. With Respond!, you can be holding down a menu (particularly useful with Sticky Menus in Mac OS 8), or clicking in a the zoom or close boxes (or the WindowShade collapse box in Mac OS 8), or dragging a window or the thumb of a scroll bar, and processes will continue in the background. Respond! includes the option to use Live Window drag. When this option is turned on, the full window, not just the outline, will be dragged, and both foreground and background processing will continue, meaning the window itself will be updated as its being dragged around! For example, you can drag around an mp3 player window and watch as it continues playing and updating the time counter while moving. Version 1.0.1 is exactly the same as version 1.0, but it does not incorrectly report your registration period being over when it is first installed. If you are already using version 1.0, there is no reason for you to download 1.0.1. This version replaces 1.0 in the cfg folder of the infomac archives.

This preview version replaces a wide selection of various System icons with Mac OS 8-like ones (including the "Welcome to Macintosh," "Finder," Apple Guide "?", "System Folder," and "System" icons). Version 1.1 installs a menu bar Finder icon more true to the Mac OS 8 style, and replaces window header "trash can," "suitcase," "locked disk," and "locked file" icons with Mac OS 8-style ones. The full version of System 8-er removes all "$," replaces additional icons within Kaleidoscope and Aaron, and even brings the System 7 Finder's "trash can," "suitcase," "locked disk," and "locked file" window header icons closer to style of Mac OS 8. System 8-er updates resources in the Finder and System files. It is strongly recommended that you start your Macintosh (or compatible) from an alternate startup disk (other than your main hard drive) before using any such updater. Version 1.2 remembers to include the "Register" application (OOPS!). Purchase of System 8-er for $5 removes all "$"s, and entitles purchasers to ALL future updates.

Applications which perform scanning chores using scanners, such as those made by Apple Computer(r), rely on a driver which is installed into the memory of the computer at boot time. Sometimes this does not happen and, as a result, applications cannot communicate with the Scanner due to the missing driver. The net result is that you cannot perform any scanning until the driver is in place and it has successfully communicated with the Scanner. ScannerProbePlus is only meant to work with scanners that are connected via a SCSI bus - not USB. #### BINHEX screen-catcher-234-de.hqx **** From: Jon Gotow Subject: Screen Catcher D-2.3.4 - German screen capture utility with"Catch-All" Screen Catcher is a full-featured, scriptable screen capture application.

The "Send To" menu may be customized by adding aliases to folders, disk and applications, or by adding Applescripts that show up in the menu and work like macro commands. In addition, the "Send To" menu also allows to send files to any running application. If the target of a "send" operation is a special folder, such as the System Folder, Send To CM will honor the Finder's automatic routing by sending extensions to the Extensions folder, controls to the Control Panels folder and so on. Send To CM is the ideal replacement for all those lists of aliases that clutter the user's desktop. #### BINHEX sentry-403.hqx **** From: quadecomputer@dodgenet.com Subject: sentry-403.hqx Sentry cdev version 4.0.3.

It is really hard to interface something to Macintosh unlike old Apple II or IBM-PC. The slot of AppleII and ISA(or EISA) of IBM-PC(or compatible) has relatively simple structure and protocol. Currently PCI bus or direct slot of Macintosh is too complex for personal hobbyist to interface something like ADC, DAC, digital port. "SerialControl" might solve this problem somewhat. "SerialControl" is application(including sources) and hardware device(to make by yourself). It uses serial port and provides 8 TTL outputs and 8 TTL inputs with current circuit, but you can easily expand to interface to other device like ADC or DAC. You require special LSI CY233 from Cybernetic Micro Systems. Actually, CY233 is powerful LSI for serial-parallel conversion or network. "SerialControl" just utilizes one of its operation modes. Only demerit of this LSI is price. The price is $45 each(16$ per 1000) except S/H. Foreigner may pay more. This "SerialControl" is absolutely freeware. You can use this circuit, source, and application for your personal use(absolutely not for commercial use). If you are going to include in CD, magazine, FTP server, or web server(except Info-Mac archives and its mirror server), please let me know. If you have any questions, advice, comments, or corrections, please let me know. I'll really appreciate. Here is information about me.

This is an interesting feature when you have start-up crashes from incompatible extensions and control- panels. However, if your system is running smooth, you may want to protect your computer with a password protection or a similar application/extension. Most password protections for the Mac are extensions or controlpanels. Therefore you can simply bypass them when holding down the Shift key at start-up. This is where the "SKS" comes in. It gives you the option to disable the Shift key only for the start-up time. After your Mac booted, the Shift key works as it always worked when you worked with your Mac. The "Shift Key Suite" is US$5 shareware. It is available from Marc Mennigmann's web site http://www.mennigmann.com and all major Macintosh shareware archives and ftp sites. The "Shift Key Suite" is free for all registered users of the Macintosh password protection THE BLOCK. System Requirements: Any Apple Macintosh or clone running MacOS System 7.0 or later. What's New? =========== v1.0.6 adds compatibility for the MacOS 9.2 and 9.2.1.

So I decided to share them with anyone who might find them at all useful. In order to use these scripts, you must have the following installed: 1. Applescript -part of the MacOS since system 7.5 2. FreePPP 2.6 (version 2.6.2 available at the time these were made) and available from and other locations. 3.

It helps you save paper and save trees. This would be a small but positive ecological step in the right direction. If your printer does not have such a function, install this control panel and try it. You can print the odd-numbered pages first by using this control panel. Then you turn all printed pages over and set them to a printer again for yourself. You can print the even-numbered pages second. It is only two times that you choose "Print..." from File menu. Consequently you can get paper which have odd-numbered pages on one side and even-numbered pages on another. Two times printing with skipping every other page makes double-sided printing. The name of SkipPrint is derived from it. New in this version: Canon printer combined with particular Pixela printer driver no longer draws skipped pages directly on the monitor screen. SkipPrint is shareware. It works on System 7 or later. For more information, please read the Read Me file enclosed.

Users simply select desired sleep times in the control panel and Sleeper takes care of the rest. Preferences can also be set to have Sleeper password-protect, sleep, or shut down a Mac after a period of inactivity, and a hotkey can be used to put the Macintosh to sleep on demand. Sleeper delivers a host of energy-saving features that work on nearly every Macintosh, from the Mac Plus to the latest iMacs, PowerBooks, and G4 PowerMacs. Sleeper provides more options, greater control, and broader hardware compatibility than Apple's Energy Saver control panel. This gives older Macs many of the energy saving features of Apple's newer hardware, and provides newer Macintoshes with more extensive, flexible, and reliable power management. What's New ---------- Version 3.5 delivers a host of new features and fixes, including the ability to save multiple setting configurations, improved reliability on G4 PowerMacs, powering down of LCD screens, and options to control processor cycling. Highlights include: - Sleeper now saves multiple configuration settings and will automatically switch between configurations when running a PowerBook from battery or ac adapter. Configurations can also be changed manually from the Control Strip. - Controls have been added to allow entry of any desired delay (1-999 minutes) for the screen saver, disk sleep, password activation, monitor power-down, sleep, and shutdown. - Sleeper now supports desktop LCD displays, such as the Apple Studio and Apple Cinema displays. - There are new options to control processor cycling. - Sleeper now unmounts servers before going to sleep, avoiding Mac OS 9's warning about "losing network services" if the computer is put to sleep. Sleeper will operate on any Macintosh running System 7 or higher, including Mac OS 9.2.1, and is accelerated for PowerPC. It is distributed as shareware, requiring a $25 registration fee for use beyond a free 30 day trial period.-- #### BINHEX sleeper-35-fr.hqx **** From: Jon Gotow Subject: Sleeper F-3.5 - French energy saving utility Sleeper is a control panel that spins down the hard disk, dims the screen, and powers off Energy Star compliant monitors on any Macintosh.

Users simply select desired sleep times in the control panel and Sleeper takes care of the rest. Preferences can also be set to have Sleeper password-protect, sleep, or shut down a Mac after a period of inactivity, and a hotkey can be used to put the Macintosh to sleep on demand. Sleeper delivers a host of energy-saving features that work on nearly every Macintosh, from the Mac Plus to the latest iMacs, PowerBooks, and G4 PowerMacs. Sleeper provides more options, greater control, and broader hardware compatibility than Apple's Energy Saver control panel.

Besides the ability to change Sound Sets you can also record your own sounds for use in the soundset (max 10 sec.). The registered version even lets you extract sounds from files, if these sounds are stored in the snd resource. For example it is possible to extract sounds from different sound sets and to create your own sound set with it. Because it is very hard to get all sound resources documented, SoundThemeChangers has a section with undefined resources, these are sounds in the theme file which don't have a name or category assigned yet. However SoundThemeChanger has the unique capability to add sound resources, all you have to do is give a unique resource number (the resource number has to be used by the system otherwise it will never be played) name and assign it to a category.

This release adds quite a few features, such as a new test, progress indicators, balloon help, and movable dialogs. See the Version History for a complete list. Speed Tester is based on an old program called Check Ticks. This program would run a series of 10,000 GetNextEvent() calls, report how long it took, and then quit. Speed Tester greatly expands on this idea. Speed Tester includes three test, GetNextEvent(), Floating Point, and Graphics(when you register).

(Shareware 10$US or 5 pounds UK.) StartOnce helps you to control your Startup Items. When you start your Mac for the first time on any day, StartOnce will launch any items found in the "StartOnce Items" folder. On subsequent restarts, these items will be skipped. Installation is easy as StartOnce will create the "StartOnce Items" folder for you the first time it is run. All you have to do is to decide which items you want launched once a day and place aliases to them in this folder. Put an alias to StartOnce in your "Startup Items" folder and you are ready to rock-and-roll. Use it whenever you want to do something only once a day. I use StartOnce on my Mac, in combination with Roland Gustafsson's free (ThankYouWare) 'SimpleBackup' utility to make a copy of my most important files at the start of work each day. If I should happen to corrupt one of these files, I know that I can always revert to the backup copy. This new version updates the documentation with my new email address and web site:- email: Steve@s7j7smith.freeserve.co.uk WWW: http://www.s7j7smith.freeserve.co.uk/ This program requires System 7 to run.

The StartScreenUp1.0 extension is a little INIT to reload the StartupScreen. This extension has been written to get rid of the password dialogbox of "DiskGuard" or "FileGuard" by Highware cross over the StartupScreen after the password has been entered. All MacintoshOS based computers are able to show a StartupScreen during the whole startup process. To create a StartupScreen you need a picture which must be saved in a "PICT" Resource with ID 0 (use JPEGView, Grafikconverter, PhotoShop, ClarisWorks, etc. ), and must be located in the systemfolder and named "StartupScreen". Normally the Mac will show only one StartupScreen. With StartScreenUp1.0 you can even view a second picture! StartScreenUp1.0 patches no traps and after the boot process it uninstalls itself so nothing remains in your system which could slow it down. Also no compatibility problem should occur. StartScreenUp1.0 is released free to let you know about CopyPaste, the productivity tool for your Mac, downloadable from http://www.bridge1.com. CopyPaste gives you ten clipboards instead of just one! How many times have you found yourself going back and forth copying in one application and pasting in a different application, wishing to yourself that you could copy 5-10 items at a time, then go to another application and paste each of these items. Now you can! Type the usual keyboard command for copy or cut and then any number between 1 and 9 before releasing the command key. Paste works in the same way. In addition to the normal clipboard you now have nine more. #### BINHEX startup-doubler-272.hqx **** From: Marc Moini Subject: Startup Doubler 2.7.2 - for faster startups!

Following is a suggested blurb: Before MacOS 9, the Temporary Items Folder was a visible folder in the System Folder and users could just throw accumulated cruft in the Trash. With OS 9, Apple hid the Temporary Items folder so well that not even Sherlock can find it. This is further explained in Article #25134 from Apple's Technical Information Library. The solution - Apple says they will fix the problem and I'm sure they will. Until then, they recommend an AppleScript that doesn't actually work. TempCleaner does work by searching the Temporary Items Folder at startup and, if there is anything there, moving it to a 'From Temporary Items' folder in the Trash. Actually, it won't move more than 20 at a time but I wanted it to be fast enough that you wouldn't notice it. #### BINHEX teoma.hqx **** From: Horst Prillinger Subject: Teoma Plugin for Sherlock This plugin enables Sherlock to search Teoma, a new and very powerful Internet search engine.

Instructions for TextE@se TextE@se is a HyperCard stack. It functions similar to At Ease, but it doesn't harm anything with boot blocks or extensions or "make sure it is turned off before deleting it" lines. To "turn it on," simply drag an alias of it into the startup items folder. To "turn it off," simply drag the alias out of the startup items folder. If you delete it without "turning it off," it won't harm anything like At Ease would do. It would simply say "The alias could not be opened because the original item could not be found." No bombs, sad Macs, blinking question marks, boot block modification, or anything out of the ordinary. Requirements: * HyperCard 2.0 or later (or Player) * AppleScript is needed for working with some files and using the Eject Disk, Restart, and Shut Down functions. Setup: * After de-BinHexing and unstuffing the file, open up the TextE@se folder. * Open up the SupportFiles folder, and move the FILEBROWSER font into the Fonts folder. * Close the SupportFiles folder. * Open up the Matrixes folder, then one of the folders within the Matrixes folder. The folder you open depends on if you want the Minimal, Normal, or Extended file type lists. * Drag the "TextE@se Filetype Matrix" file to the folder where HyperCard (or HyperCard Player) is listed. If you have a new computer, HyperCard Player should be in Apple Extras. * Close the Matrixes folders. * Double-click TextE@se. You're ready to go! About the Filetype Matrix The file titled "TextE@se Filetype Matrix" contains file type definitions. The very first character in the file is called the "Unknown Document Icon Character." It is the character in the FILEBROWSER font that corresponds to the icon of a general document file. Everything except that first character that is still on the first line is ignored. Starting with line 2, we have the file type definitions. There are four items on each line, which are seperated by commas. The first item is the title. This is plain English, like Application and Desk Accessory and Kaleidoscope Scheme. The second item is the file type. File types are four characters that are used to identify files. Examples are APPL, dfil, and Colr. The third is that icon character thing again. It is the character in the FILEBROWSER font that corresponds with the icon used with that type of file. The fourth and final item is the application that is used to open that type of file. If the file is not opened with a particular application, then this item is either Executable or GeneralOpen. Executable should only be used for file type definitions with a file type of APPL. GeneralOpen is used for files that are handled by the system when you open them. HyperCard's command for opening files is "open 'document' with 'application,'" so you can only open files with an application. If you use Executable, it will use the syntax "open 'application,'" but that is only used for opening application programs. This means you can't open fonts or control panels, or something like that, because those are opened by the system, and the system is not an application. You can try "open 'font or control panel' with 'Finder,'" but I'm not sure that will work. These files CAN be opened with GeneralOpen, since GeneralOpen is an AppleScript program that will open ANY file, just like if it was double-clicked in the Finder. So if you use GeneralOpen, the system opens it! The beautiful thing about this is you can bypass the default program used for opening files. For example, if you open a keyboard layout with the system (or by double-clicking it), you get a message that tells you what a keyboard layout is. That's not much help for finding out what's in the file. But with the Filetype Matrix, you can open it up with ResEdit (or a different program) instead, and you can actually open the file! Keyboard layouts are already set up to open with ResEdit. #### BINHEX the-block-21.hqx **** From: mennigmann@kagi.com Subject: THE BLOCK v2.1 - Macintosh Password Protection System What is THE BLOCK? ++++++++++++++++++ THE BLOCK is a powerful password protection system for Macintosh computers. Unlike other password protection systems, it will not accept real passwords. To log in to a computer protected by THE BLOCK you need to go through a two-step process. First you need to type a Password Key, which is a key combination similar to the Finder's Copy or Paste shortcuts [command+c] or [command+v]. The second step is to click with the mouse on the shutdown button on the on-screen dialog or, depending on the preferences you set, to press the "esc" key on your keyboard. A big part of THE BLOCK's security comes from the illusion that a real password is needed. If intruders are not aware of how THE BLOCK works, they will always choose the wrong approach. If they are aware, THE BLOCK will still be as protective as every other password system because there are many possible Password Keys and there is an option to disable the shift key at startup. A Password Key can consist of any of the four modifiers (command, alt, control or shift) and another key on your keyboard, including the cursor keys, the F-keys and the page navigation keys. THE BLOCK is US$10 shareware. It is available from Marc Mennigmann's web site and all major Macintosh shareware archives and ftp sites. Version 2.1 is a free upgrade to registered users of any earlier version. System Requirements: Any Apple Macintosh or clone with at least a 68020 CPU running MacOS System 7.1 or later. Features ++++++++ * Powerful password protection without a real password. * Disabling of the shift key at startup for 68k and PPC machines. * Activity log to keep track of the time and date of startups, failed login attempts and changes to the preferences. * Sound alerts when a user tries to log in with a wrong password. * An energy saver option can shut down the computer after two minutes of inactivity. * Application-wide balloon help support. * Appearance Manager savvy. * Support of Apple's Navigation services. What is new in THE BLOCK 2.1? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ THE BLOCK 2.1 is a bugfix for version 2.0 to provide compatibility with the new Macintosh operating system 8.5. -- Marc Mennigmann mennigmann@kagi.com http://www.kagi.com/mennigmann/ #### BINHEX the-dailies-106.hqx **** From: Sander Tekelenburg Subject: The Dailies 1.0.6 - Daily Startup and Shutdown Items.

It does so in a "cosmetic" way, i.e. by regrouping the icons according to a set of categories. The program is very safe to use, since it doesn't patch anything and ultimately accomplishes automatically and painlessly what you could very well do manually if you are willing to spend the required time and effort. Files are sorted alphabetically by name in each category. A file's category is determined by its Type, Creator and name.

You will need at least System 7.1 to use TimeRunner. It should work with all system versions up to Mac OS 9.x. I literally threw this together in a couple of hours to get a job done that I needed - it's not pretty, nor incredibly user-friendly, but it's simple, and I thought somebody else might find it useful... Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Drag the TimeRunner extension onto the icon of your System Folder. You will be asked if you want to place it into the Extensions folder, which is where this extension should go! (Alternatively, you can of course drag it into the Extensions folder yourself.) Once it is in place you should restart your Mac to allow the extensions to load as the system starts up. Once Finder has started you should see a warning message appearing which tells you that there is no "TimeRun Items" folder in your System Folder. If you open up your System Folder and create a new folder with the name "TimeRun Items", then you can place applications to launch (or better, aliases to applications) into this folder. #### BINHEX tip-thing-13.hqx **** From: sudeep@macconnect.com Subject: TipThing1.3 Tip Thing is an application that when run, displays a random message from a tip catalog.

Version 1.5 adds the following options: * Completely disable the caps-lock key * Disable the help key * Play subtle key-click sounds as keys are pressed Because Kicho is an application and not an extension or control panel, it can be activated and deactivated on-the-fly, without restarting, and is unlikely to cause system conflicts. However, being a background application, it's still invisible to the user. Kicho requires Mac OS 8 and a PowerPC processor. It is sold as shareware at a price of $10 for a single-user license.

Enclosed are the ResEdit resources to switch back and forth between it and a somewhat more interesting replacement. This archive contains two files, "trash!" and "toidy!" Simply copy the icon resources into the Appearance Extension, and the string resources into the Finder. All the usual warnings about ResEdit apply. Perhaps I'll actually write a patch application later on... These are free, because who would pay for them? There is more goofy crap like this at: if you care. jon #### BINHEX toner-tuner-1010-demo.hqx **** From: davej@working.com Subject: New Toner Tuner Demo Enclosed is the Toner Tuner Demo. Please check our web page at http://www.working.com to see if this is the latest version. Toner Tuner, one of the Working Software Printing Utilities, allows you to save toner or ink when making draft prints. It works by printing drafts in light gray. It works best with PostScript printers but also works with most QuickDraw printers. This demo works just like Tuner Tuner, but it prints obnoxious information in the center of each "Toner-Tuned" page :-) :-). This only happens when you turn Toner Tuner on in the Print dialog - it won't affect your regular printouts. To try out the demo, drag the Toner Tuner onto your System Folder, then restart your Macintosh. After restarting, print a document from one of your applications. Toner Tuner adds some items to the print dialog. Use the slider bar to adjust the print darkness, and check the "Use TT" checkbox to turn it on for this print. The slider bar setting is remembered between prints. Shortcut: hold the Option key when you press Return, or click Print, to turn Toner Tuner on. Secret Stuff for Advanced Users: Use ResEdit to edit the "TTPf" resource in Toner Tuner to set the "Use TT" checkbox default to on. The installer for the real product allows this as an option. * Printer Compatibility Toner Tuner works with most printers, but some printers will not respond to Toner Tuner's command to lighten their printouts. HP DeskWriter owners must use version 2.2 of the DeskWriter driver software on black and white DeskWriters. Later versions of the black and white DeskWriter, and all versions of the color DeskWriter do not dim their printouts. * Where to get it: Toner Tuner is available from: Working Software Inc.
