ADBReinit Program v 1.0 by Greg Trimper
Intro:
------
Someone at work saw a program that reinitialized the Apple
Desktop Bus, handy for those of us who like to plug in ADB
devices after the computer is on, contrary to what Apple
tells us to do. He didn't like the lack of interface or the lack
of warning - apparently you just run the program and it exits,
not telling you what it did.
Program:
--------
So I wrote this program. Really simple. This note took longer
to write than the program. Double-click, and it gives you a chance
to cancel out or reset the ADB. Click OK to reset the bus.
WARNINGS:
---------
* Apple advises against plugging ADB devices into a powered computer.
Thus, doing so, or using this program, is totally at your own
risk.
* This should work with System 6 and 7, but has only been tested on
a Mac SE/30 and IIcx.
* Might crash a plus. Shouldn't be run on a Plus, anyway.
