The Application Switching Manager is a public interface that several third party utilities support. It is currently support by ClaireWare Software's Program Switcher and Binary Software's 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 Application Commander requires the following: Apple's 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 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 "background only application," so there are no options or other user interface to mess with. All you have to do is say a command that Application Commander recognizes and it will act on the 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 Most commands should be self explanatory. The "Switch to " means that you say "Switch to" and the name of a running application and Application Commander will take you to it. Application Commander is free!

EasySwitcher allows for Macintosh users to have the one good feature of Windows users (plus a few things you can't do on a Windows machine).

Thus, it can be started and stopped like an application at anytime (without having to restart your machine). * EasySwitcher 'Watches' what applications you are using, and keeps them only a few key strokes away. So that Switching between 2 applications is quick and easy. * EasySwitcher even has a hot key to Hide the front application. This helps keep your desktop clean from cluttered windows.

When Netscape designed its first-generation browsers, it included a layer of directory buttons pointing to services that varied depending on where and how you obtained the browser. The only problem is that Netscape didn't give users a way to edit the title and destinations of those buttons, and most of the time the buttons remained hidden and useless. Navigator Enhancer allows you to edit this information, so you can substitute your favorite Web pages and services for the ones supplied by Netscape. A word of caution, though: make sure you've exited your browser and made a backup copy of your browser before using this application. Navigator Enhancer is now distributed as freeware. It is available from Marc Mennigmann's web site and all major Macintosh shareware archives and ftp sites. Version 1.3 does not add new features to the software. It just changes it status from shareware to freeware. System Requirements: Any Apple Macintosh or clone with at least a 68020 CPU running MacOS System 7.1 or later. Netscape Navigator 2.x or 3.x.

A Control Panel is joined, which lets you change its preferences, and a Control Strip Module and a Contextual Menu extension are bundled. You can change all your resolutions with just one mouse click on the Finder desktop, or just by pressing one key. It also allows you to: ---------------------- * use *all* available resolutions of your video cards, not only those the MacOS choose for you * automatically switch resolution and color depth of all monitors when launching an application, and restore your settings when quitting * position the desktop icons where you want, at every resolution change and at startup * configure the menus by choosing which resolutions and what bitdepths will be displayed (Control Strip Module menu, Contextual Menu) and a lot of other features... SwitchRes requires MacOS 8, and a multisync monitor may be useful... Of course, SwitchRes works fine under MacOS 8.5 It is distributed as a $9 shareware, but you can try the application for 7 days. What is new in version 1.5.1: ----------------------------- Version 1.5.1 is essantially a bug-fixing version. It fixes the stupid bug where using Navigation Services could crash the control panel with a type-1 error. It also fixes a bug where the help menu of different applications could suddenly disappear when using SwitchRes' icon menu. Some games that were previously crahsing are now working (that includes games that were relying on the error code returned by the Display Manager). As for the features, it now uses PowerPC native patches, for overall speed; and adds support for proportional thumbbars in MacOS 8.5 What was new in version 1.5: ---------------------------- * All SwitchRes menus are definable independently: you can decide to show the depths only in the Control Strip Module and the resolutions only in the Contextual Menu, if you want * SwitchRes can restore the display and sound settings when an application quits * You can prevent SwitchRes to re-apply an application defined setting [Archived as /info-mac/cfg/switchres-151-de.hqx; 342K] ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Nov 1998 15:47:11 -0700 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.
