- This hack is made up of two parts: an INIT which watches what dialog boxes are up,
- and an application which hides the Finder windows and throbs the default buttons
- (or not) of dialogs.
-
- To use, put the file named DialogWatcher into your System Folder, and restart. All this
- file does is watch what the default button is, and store its rectangle in low memory.
- (don't ever do this in anything you ship, but I needed a good place and I didn't have
- enough time to do it right.)
-
- Then, run the app named OS X Throbber. Turn on the checkbox to start Emulation (this
- hides the Finder windows for reasons I haven't fully determined - but it was useful so
- I didn't change it) Then select Throb from the menu to throb the default buttons of
- dialogs that are implemented using ModalDialog, and select Don't Throb to throb everything
- but the default button.
-
- The INIT/cdev is written by Jorg Brown, a modified version of a personal version of
- ReturnStillOpens.
-
- The app is written by Eric Traut, based on PowerPlant - the files MultiMonitorApp
- and MultiMonitorController, and GDeviceUtils. The file Blenders is my work.
-
- Apologies for writing to low memory, don't use multiple monitor setups, and God bless.

- ps This hack was written starting at 10:30PM the night of the contest, a derivative work
- of Eric Traut's, who wrote the whole thing at MacHack to begin with.
