- DESC: BatteryMenu - The Battery Menu System Extension displays the
- KEY: BatteryMenu.sit KBytes: 4096
- DESC: equivelent of the Battery Menu DA in the menu bar. It tells you
- DESC: how much power is left in the battery as well as if the Macintosh
- DESC: is attached to an AC adaptor (the battery is recharging). This INIT
- DESC: should work on any Portable Macintosh. When installed, it takes up
- DESC: about 1K of memory.

- 47 ChargeTimer Pack.sit 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 06-15-1993
- DESC: ChargeTimer Pack - ChargeTimer is an application for use with
- KEY: ChargeTimer Pack.sit KBytes: 66560
- DESC: Powerbooks (system 7 is required) The application shows battery
- DESC: useage, CPU speed, battery voltage, and battery time remaining.
- DESC: Another feature of Charge Time is the ability to save the battery
- DESC: voltage and time as a TEXT file. This file can be used in
- DESC: spreadsheets to graph voltage and time, to test battery performance.
- DESC: The sampling is once per minute and each line is just, the Time, a
- DESC: TAB, Voltage, and a return. ChargeTimer 1.2, ChargeTimer Deluxe
- DESC: 1.1, and ChargeTimer Lite 1.0 are included in this pack.

- DESC: ClickLock 1.0a4 - ClickLock is for all of you PowerBook users who
- KEY: ClickLock 1.0a4.sit KBytes: 9216
- DESC: are having trouble holding the button down while rolling your
- DESC: trackball. Since most of us fall into one of these two categories,
- DESC: ClickLock is for you. This simple INIT (system extension) allows
- DESC: you to "lock" the trackball's button down. To do so, hold down the
- DESC: "cntl" key (the "control" key on desktop keyboards) while clicking
- DESC: the trackball (or mouse) button. Now even after you release the
- DESC: trackball button, the Macintosh will still think that the button is
- DESC: down. Not until you click a second time will the Mac "unlock", or
- DESC: release, the button.

- DESC: PowerBooks). It will put your machine to sleep when you click in one
- DESC: of the screen's corners. You can choose which corner and disable
- DESC: ClicSleep with the control panel. The ClicSleep allows you to
- DESC: disable the NetWork alert set the size of the "sensible" rectangle
- DESC: (I use 2), and set the modifie keys. Note- It can be used only to
- DESC: disable NetWork alert by setting corner to "Off", "Disable Network
- DESC: Alert" ON and selecting "Always". In order for ClicSleep to work, it
- DESC: must be installed in your System's control Panel folder and be

- 42 DuoMon 1.2.sit 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-09-1994
- DESC: DuoMon 1.2 - Have you ever wondered how much power different
- KEY: DuoMon 1.2.sit KBytes: 23552
- DESC: operations on your Duo consume? How much battery life you really
- DESC: gain by dimming the screen? How much extra power the modem uses?
- DESC: This program will help you answer those questions. The heart of
- DESC: this program is the extended Power Manager, currently only found in
- DESC: the Powerbook Duo computers. Besides monitoring battery voltage,
- DESC: the extended Power Manager monitors actual power consumption and a
- DESC: wealth of other data. Most of the items in the Detailed Power
- DESC: Information window are self explanitory. Check out the read me docs
- DESC: for more help.

- DESC: Insomnia - This INIT sits and watches for when you plug the charger
- KEY: Insomnia.sit KBytes: 4096
- DESC: into your PowerBook it will disable the PowerBookUs power-saving
- DESC: idle mode when you do. The Power Manager cannot distinguish between
- DESC: a charger that is connected to a live outlet, and a charger that
- DESC: isn't. Therefore, when you plug a charger into your PowerBook,
- DESC: Insomnia will disable idle mode no matter what. If the chargeis
- DESC: plugged into a dead outlet, or into no outlet at all, your battery
- DESC: will discharge faster.

- DESC: Insomniac 1.0.2 - This application works only on those Macintosh
- KEY: Insomniac 1.0.2.sit KBytes: 31744
- DESC: models that can wake themselves up (Macintosh Portable, PowerBook
- DESC: 100, or PowerBook Duo). The "PowerBook" or "Portable" Control Panel
- DESC: provided by Apple only allows you to enter a single wakeup time.
- DESC: This prevents you from scheduling multiple wake-up sessions. For
- DESC: example, if you wanted to send your faxes at 1:00am, and then
- DESC: download some files at 2:00am, you'd have to stay up until 1:00am,
- DESC: and reset the wakeup timer manually. Insomniac is a very convenient
- DESC: program for automatically sending faxes or email in the middle of
- DESC: the night. Insomniac allows you to program up to fifty wakeup

- DESC: after somebody else mounted your hard disk he immediately moves
- DESC: your icons from their original place to somewhere else and destroys
- DESC: your in-years-build desktop!! Ilka does a quite simple but
- DESC: effective job - it hides all files on the desktop, you can
- DESC: dock/mount the volume and after work is done you'll tell Ilka to
- DESC: show the files again. No cluttered desktop, no wasting hours with
- DESC: redragging your icons again! Also included in this pack is Suzi, a

- DESC: Pbgadget09 - PBGadget is a small application to help manage battery
- KEY: Pbgadget0.9.sit KBytes: 8192
- DESC: usage on Powerbook Duo's. It puts up a clock and battery voltage
- DESC: readout in the upper right corner of the screen. When the power
- DESC: supply is unplugged, the clock changes to a timer of how long the
- DESC: Duo has been running on battery power. A vertical bar on the left
- DESC: side of the time window indicates much time there is left until the
- DESC: disk spins down. Works with the 270c and the new duo batteries. New
- DESC: feature in version 0.8 - an indicator bar of how much time is left

- DESC: PBNumericKeypad - The Macintosh PowerBook keyboards lack a built-in
- KEY: PBNumericKeypad.sit KBytes: 6144
- DESC: numeric keypad. These keyboard layout files allow one to simulate a
- DESC: keypad on the existing PowerBook keyboard by holding down
- DESC: option-ctrl. Explanation/Instructions are included in the file.
- DESC: Build after the author finished the tedious process of making a
- DESC: QuicKeys keyset to re-map the PowerBook keyboard into a numeric
- DESC: keypad, and began wondering why Apple did not just supply a KCHR
- DESC: that does it. So the author is supplying it for us all.

- DESC: PBSleep2 - This is an init that makes your PowerBook yawn when it
- KEY: PBSleep2.sit KBytes: 12288
- DESC: goes to sleep or wakes up. It is a revision of an ealier version
- DESC: that required ResEdit. This one just requires you to drag it into
- DESC: the system folder and restart, then anytime your powerbook sleeps
- DESC: or wakes up, it yawns. Cute and small program for System 7 powerbook

- DESC: PBTools 1.2 - SafeSleep is a small System Extension (aka INIT) for
- KEY: PBTools 1.2.sit KBytes: 9216
- DESC: the PowerBooks. Though I haven't tested it on a Mac Portable, I
- DESC: suspect it will work fine on that too. SafeSleep will not load on
- DESC: any Mac which does not have the Power Manager. SafeSleep blanks the
- DESC: screen and requests a password whenever a sleeping Mac is awakened.
- DESC: SpinD is a small FKey that spins down the internal hard drive in

- DESC: Plug Alert 1.0.1 - This is a simple INIT to help with the annoying
- KEY: Plug Alert 1.0.1.sit KBytes: 5120
- DESC: problem of a PowerBook being unplugged by accident. When you unplug
- DESC: the PowerBook, Plug Alert will put up a message telling you that
- DESC: the charger has been taken out of the PowerBook. Also if the wall
- DESC: current is off, or the charger is unplugged from the wall, Plug
- DESC: Alert will notify you of this as well. This INIT is not likely to
- DESC: have any sort of conflict, it is VERY simple. This version fixed
- DESC: the message that told the user when the PowerBook was unplugged, so
- DESC: it read correctly. Also added the feature which notifies the user
- DESC: when the wall current is off, or when the charger has been unplugged

- DESC: Quiet Start 1.2 - Quiet Start is a system extension which will keep
- KEY: Quiet Start 1.2.sit KBytes: 7168
- DESC: some Macintosh models from making the usual chime at startup or
- DESC: restart. I made it particularly for those PowerBook users who may
- DESC: really want to use thier computer as a laptop and may find
- DESC: themselves in an environment where the chime would be disturbing to
- DESC: others (like in a classroom). Please be aware that because your
- DESC: Macintosh may not have a ROM which checks the volume level before
- DESC: making the chime, this program may have no effect on your computer.
- DESC: Sorry, there's nothing a program can do until it's running - and
- DESC: bootstrap ROM always goes first. Volume 1.1 Fixed a bug which would

- KEY: Threshold 1.0.2.sit KBytes: 75776
- DESC: allows you to alter when the PowerBook's "your battery is getting
- DESC: low" alerts appear. While it is more useful if you are using an
- DESC: external battery like a Technöggin PowerPlate or the VST ThinPack,
- DESC: it also works great with internal batteries. Threshold allows you
- DESC: to manually control the threshold voltages for these warning
- DESC: messages, so that they come up when you want them to. Threshold
- DESC: requires System 7.0 or later. Threshold has been tested on most
- DESC: current flavors of PowerBooks. It will not work on a Duo.

- DESC: this FKEY isto be able to avoid going to the Chooser to turn off
- DESC: AppleTalk every time you take your PowerBook on the road since this
- DESC: requires a menu item, a button click, an “Are you sure” dialog, an
- DESC: OK dialog and a close box. Turning it back on requires a menu item,
- DESC: a button click, an OK dialog and a close box. This is almost more
- DESC: trouble than it is worth. So, I wanted an FKEY that allowed me to
- DESC: blast AppleTalk off with a single key combo and hit the road. This
- DESC: is the ToggleAT FKEY. It comes as resource ID 12, which is only
- DESC: useful if you use a macro program like QuicKeys to trigger it. If
