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.

You can easily personalize the presentation of the password dialog with your own icon, picture or text, and Sesame even incorporates a screen saver. And finally, a nice touch for site administrators: you can create an administrator password in addition to your individual password.

How to use is very easy. It's only pressing key twice as double-click. === Other minimum requirements === PowerMac / PowerBook / iMac / iBook Mac OS 8.1 or later === What's new ? === - OtherWindowsKey - This key is for shading all windows except front window. - CleanDesktop - CleanDesktop is changed from "Finder Option". 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.
