In Khoog every game starts with a different board configuration and feels like an entirely new game, however the rules are fixed. Therefore, Khoog is truly a game that generates new games. We invite you to design your own board configurations using Khoog's intuitive interface. Once you have created a new board and placed the pieces and destinations for all the players, Khoog will be immediately playable in the game you have just created. Imagine that!

Played on an 8x8 board, it is as easy to learn as Checkers, as challenging as Chess, and as addictive as Tetris or Solitaire. But with 4 levels of play ranging from "Newcomer" (beginners luck could win a game or two) to "Strategram" (white knuckle time) Strategram is deceptively challenging. Blocking, attacking, and end-game strategies become the operative words. And, as the title suggests, strategy is the key to success. Designed so that even the most jaded board game veteran will be hooked, Strategram is packed with features. An interactive tutorial gets anyone up and playing in no time. There is a "Strategic Advisor" that gives move by move advice. And Tournament play, custom color schemes, move histories, saved games, and unlimited undo round out the list. Most incredible of all is Strategram's appeal to virtually anyone who tries it. Why wait - download Strategram 1.0.2 for Macintosh Now, free trial!

In addition, it supports receiving E-mail even via dial-up connections - by means of wake-up E-mails and/or the Remote Queue Starting procedure described in RFC1985 (in both the client and server modes). MIME (RFC 1341) support and various attachment encoding methods are provided within the CommuniGate Server kernel itself. The CommuniGate SMTP is designed to support both direct and dial-up Internet connections. It allows you to run a full-featured Internet E-mail server even if you do not have a direct IP link to the Internet. The CommuniGate SMTP module supports multi-stream communications, and it can send messages to and receive messages from several other hosts simultaneously. The CommuniGate SMTP module can work together with the CommuniGate POP and CommuniGate IMAP modules providing complete TCP/IP Internet E-mail services. The CommuniGate SMTP module can work together with the CommuniGate UUCP module providing both TCP/IP and UUCP Internet E-mail. The CommuniGate Router takes care of directing messages to the proper gate. The CommuniGate SMTP module can protect the server from being used as a mail relay (for "spam"), and it can distinguish messages sent by registered users. The CommuniGate SMTP module can accept AppleTalk connections providing mail services to both TCP/IP and AppleTalk-savvy mailers (as Claris Emailer). Please read the document to see if you need the CommuniGate SMTP module for your server.

I wanted a RPN calculator, but not one more of those complete implementations of scientific HP machines, that fill most of the screen with dozens of buttons and switches. At the end of a week I was usually back to the classic Apple calc, because it's small, fast, doesn't create auxiliary files on the disk, and doesn't have big manuals. So, the first goal on Kalk design was to make its window the same size of Apple's. Then remove all digit buttons from the panel, making area for more information (6 or 17 of the 30 levels of the stack are shown). The only buttons remaining are those used everytime and those that are hard to remember without a label (Drop, Swap, Enter, Undo, Change Sign, Clear). Using Kalk is very like doing simple math on a 28- or 48-series HP calculator. Digits are entered via keyboard, and the special functions are grouped on the "Kalk" menu. Hardware requirements: any Mac OS machine, except 128, 512, 512Ke, Plus, SE, Classic, Portable and PB 100. Changes since 1.0.8: Aesthetic changes to be compatible with Mac OS 8 platinum appearance. Added a mechanism that allows the user to plug sounds for many Kalk operations. Added a percent function. Added Power (x^y) function. Window can now grow to show 17 levels of the stack.

The ResEdit resources are designed to replace the 'factory' installed Blue folders with Silver Two-Tab 3D style folders. The included 'ready made' folders are designed to enhance the effect by enabling you to place custom folders onto those folders that normally do not have a custom icon in your System Folder. Included in the archive is a "Folder Icon Maker" (version 1.5) resource file so you can get started making your own Silver Two-Tab 3D custom folders right away. Folder Icon Maker v1.5 itself is included in this archive by permission of the author, Gregory M. Robbins. This is in the form of an original StuffIt archive as downloaded from America Online. This set works best with Mac OS 8 or later. For System Software (Mac OS) versions earlier than OS 8 please look for "SilverTwoTabCoplandRsrcs_v3" at your favorite info-mac archive. Please see the included "Two-Tab 3D Read Me" file for more information and instructions for installation. Don't forget to look for the "SilverTwo-Tab3D" folder series as well. Each archive/series contains 100 custom "ready made" folders for your enjoyment.

Starting from version 2.1, a shutdown sound can also be played when the Mac is restarted or shut down. All startup and shutdown sounds can be either fixed or picked at random. New in 2.1: - Added support for shutdown sounds and custom amounts of reserved system RAM. - Moved the Startup Player files and folders to their own folder in the System folder.

Whereas version 1.2 was an underfeatured brainstorming program, StoryProject 2.0 is a fully-fledged story outliner. It has two unique features that creative writers will appreciate: threading and spotlighting. Threading makes a complex plot easier to develop, and spotlighting does the same for character development. Because the two are integrated, whatever you do in StoryProject, you are always progressing your story. StoryProject 2.0 is fully-functional shareware. Try it for 15 days, then register. Read the Read Me file for full details. Requires System 7 or greater and at least 1MB free RAM. Works on any Macintosh.

In this exciting game you begin as a storm chaser tracking tornadoes. The sky is dark and ominous, and you've got a job to do... Before too long you end up in the Land of Ooz, a bizarre fantasy world filled with strange creatures, fascinating puzzles, and intriguing plot twists. There's treasure to find, problems to solve, and civilizations to save! Along the way you'll find plenty of humor, horrendous puns, and some political satire that might just make you think. You'll encounter Mushkins, Woggles, a Pumpkin Village, Zirconium City, and more in this amazing game. The result of months of full-time work, this game includes hundreds of sounds, dozens of characters, and some of the best black & white graphics you've ever seen. This game will work on any Mac OS computer. Sounds may not work on the Mac XL, PowerPC Macs, or AV Macs. IMPORTANT NOTE: For a PowerPC you may need to increase the memory partition to run this (or any other World Builder) game. Suggest increasing memory partition to 1024K by single clicking the Twisted application, selecting "Get Info" from the File menu, and increasing "Preferred Size" to 1024. The author asks a $15 shareware fee if you like and keep the game. The author can be contacted by e-mail at raydunakin@aol.com. Version 1.5 fixes minor bugs and adds additional hints to the game.

This command will wait for the application with the given OS type signature to complete. It can be useful when, for example, you need to compress some stuff with Aladdin's DropStuff=81. After launching it, DropStuff=81 will continue compression in background, giving you problems if you need to wait for the packed output.
