Greg's Browser 2.0.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:G:Greg's Browser 2.0.sit 2.0 0 63K 2/28/94 Greg's Browser 2.0 - Greg's Browser is an interesting "finder replacement" stand alone application. When you open it, you are presented with a scrolling list of all folders and applications (like if you could view your desktop by name). Click on the hard drive's name, and in the next column over appears all the folders and applications on the hard drive (like in view by name). You can launch programs, open folders to show a list view in the next column to the right, throw things away, and put icons in a special place for quick access. You can also have invisible files show. Plus, most of the functions can be run through the keyboard! Requires System 7. There are too many changes from 1.x to list. Just try it.

FolderIconCleaner1.1.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:F:FolderIconCleaner1.1.1.sit 1.1.1 0 25K 2/28/94 FolderIconCleaner1.1.1 - Folder Icon Cleaner is a small utility that lets you correctly get rid of those space and time wasting custom icons, stuck right there on your folders. Let me explain why I say “correctly”. The Finder keeps every folder icon in a separate hidden file. The known versions of the Finder (7.0, 7.0.1, 7.1) do not delete this file when removing a custom folder icon. They only delete the icon resources from the file. Note that no other information is kept into these “Icon” files. Folder Icon Cleaner correctly removes the icon by deleting the file (and by updating the “Use custom icon” attribute of the folder). No data is lost, you only gain a little more free space on your disk. 1.1.1 fixed bug!
DefaultApp1.0a1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:D:DefaultApp1.0a1.sit 1.0a1 0 11K 2/28/94 Default App 1.0a1 - Default Application is a utility for configuring Finder 7’s choice of the application to launch for documents whose creators can’t be found. For example, I have my Finder configured so that if I double-click a MacWrite II or Microsoft Word document, it is automatically opened with MacWrite Pro. There are other utilities around for doing this, but what makes mine different is that it’s a control panel, and lets you make changes quickly, without quitting and restarting the Finder. Default App does not need to load (as a control panel) on startup, so it can reside anywhere on the drive. Balloon help is available.
THINK Scripts 1.2.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:AppleScript:THINK Scripts 1.2.1.sit 1.2.1 0 30K 2/28/94 THINK Scripts 1.2.1 - Five AppleScript droplets for use in combination with Symantec C++ 6.0.1. The only difference between versions 1.2 and 1.2.1 is that the scripts from version 1.2 were compiled with AppleScript 1.1, making them unusable for version 1.0 owners. The droplets are - THINK Bring Up to Date (Does a 'Bring up to date' of projects dropped onto it.), THINK Bring Up to Date & Shut (Does a 'Bring up to date' of projects dropped onto it. Shuts down your Macintosh afterwards.), THINK Compact Projects (Does a 'Compact Project' of projects dropped onto it.), THINK Remove Objects (Does a 'Remove Objects' of projects dropped onto it.), and THINK Set Options (Allows one to set compilation options to multiple projects).
Symbionts 2.3.3.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:S:Symbionts 2.3.3.sit 2.3.3 0 72K 2/28/94 Symbionts 2.3.3 - Symbionts is an extension that monitors the startup process. Symbionts displays the name and number of bytes of memory each system extension allocates from the system heap. The name and number appear beneath the extension's icon, and since the name is usually truncated, Symbionts also displays it in the menu bar. Symbionts even shows the icons for those extensions that don't normally reveal themselves. Symbionts Control is a control panel that sets the preferences for the Symbionts extension. It also allows the review of the information collected by the Symbionts extension. Additionally, the control panel is used to manage the loading of system extensions without having to dig around. System 7 only.

Quiet Start 1.2.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Powerbook:Quiet Start 1.2.sit 1.2 0 7K 2/28/94 Quiet Start 1.2 - Quiet Start is a system extension which will keep some Macintosh models from making the usual chime at startup or restart. I made it particularly for those PowerBook users who may really want to use thier computer as a laptop and may find themselves in an environment where the chime would be disturbing to others (like in a classroom). Please be aware that because your Macintosh may not have a ROM which checks the volume level before making the chime, this program may have no effect on your computer. Sorry, there's nothing a program can do until it's running - and bootstrap ROM always goes first. Volume 1.1 Fixed a bug which would often keep the volume at 0 after startup.
Peeping Tom 1.4.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:P-Q:Peeping Tom 1.4.sit 1.4 0 13K 2/28/94 Peeping Tom 1.4 - Peeping Tom is a shareware init/background application that keeps track of the current applications and desk accessories that are open. When processes are quit, Peeping Tom writes the information that it has on the dead process to a text file in the System Folder.

The percentage represents how much the process used of the CPU while the process was running. Peeping Tom is very useful for monitoring computers. It keeps track of time spent on the computer, which is perfect for those who bill their customers on a hourly basis.
Dialog View 1.0.8.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:D:Dialog View 1.0.8.sit 1.0.8 0 22K 2/28/94 Dialog View 1.0.8 - Dialog View (formerly List Font) is a control panel that allows you to change the font and size used in directory dialog file lists, and display the real icons of files in such lists. It requires System 7. If you use it together with the author's Open-wide program, you will be able to use larger fonts without cramping the list. Dialog View uses undocumented system information. It has been tested with System 7.0.1 and System 7.1, but it could break in the future. Displaying the real icons requires querying the desktop database, which may cause noticeable delay and disk activity. This will be especially noticeable with slow disks such as CD-ROMs. Now compatible with Macintosh Easy Open and the Lang. Kit extn.
ColorKey 4.0.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:C:ColorKey 4.0.1.sit 4.0.1 0 18K 2/28/94 ColorKey 4.0.1 - ColorKey is a combination of a system extension and a control panel that, when you hold down Command (that’s the apple key) and option while you click the mouse, will cycle through the screen depths you select (black and white, 4 color, 16 colors, 256 colors, etc.). The first time you run ColorKey, you will see a configuration dialog appear on the screen. This allows you to immediately jump to any color depth and to select the depths you’d like to cycle through. If you would like to see this dialog EVERY TIME you activate ColorKey, check the “Always Show this Dialog” button at the bottom of the dialog. A handy device for game players! Requires a color Mac, and System 7.

Searching on just about any conceivable combination of Macintosh file attribute, UltraFind is designed to go and get the exact document you need from among countless documents with similar file names or types, or collect files from all over your system and move them to new locations. You can even search for specific words, or parts of sentences anywhere within files on any mounted media (CD's, tapes, hard drives...).
SAVe the Disk 1.31.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:S:SAVe the Disk 1.31.sit 1.31 0 13K 2/09/94 SAVe the Disk 1.31 - sAVe the Disk is a system extension which will alleviate the excessive disk drive hits experienced by owners of AV Macs in the following two circumstances - 1) The traps ChangedResource and AddResource flush the whole file to disk each time they are invoked. This significantly degrades performance if many resources are changed in succession, e.g. while linking programs or running resource compilers. 2) Each time a sound channel is allocated (disposed) some information is read from (written to) the file DSP Preferences. Applications which follow Apple's recommendations create and destroy such a channel for each single sound they produce and thus slow down while they torture your hard disk.
Quit It 1.21.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:P-Q:Quit It 1.21.sit 1.21 0 28K 2/09/94 Quit It 1.21 - A Macintosh is very easy to use, but neverteless there are users who don't understand anything about processes etc. All they see is windows on the screen, and to stop working they just close the window using the close box. But this leaves the application open, which can lead to confusion on one side, and on a shortage of memory on the other side. Quit It can take away this problem - whenever the last window of an application is closed using the close box, it will quit the application. That's all there is to it. There are some user configurations - you can set programs to not quit with the last window closed and more. This is a great init to use when kids are on the computer! This control panel requires System 7.

It can be used for launching applications and documents, restart and shut down, various file management functions, and executing FKEYs. OtherMenu takes up a minimum of about 14K of system memory, but uses more depending on the length of the menu and the number of submenus. The contents of OtherMenu’s menu is determined by the contents of the OtherMenu Folder. All files and aliases placed in the OtherMenu Folder become OtherMenu menu items. And you can put in folders, and aliases of folders and volumes, to create submenus up to 5 levels deep. Requires System 7.

Disk Charmer 2.1.2.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:D:Disk Charmer 2.1.2.sit 2.1.2 0 45K 2/09/94 Disk Charmer 2.1.2 - Disk Charmer is a small utility for erasing stacks of floppy disks. It sports background formatting, but only when the new Thread Manager is present. You should notice that Disk Charmer allows switching among applications while operating. This happens because I use "asynchronous" reads and writes from/to the disks. Macs with I/O chips (IIfx, Quadra 800, 900, 950, and probably the Workgroup Servers) do not slow down while reading the entire disk. This version of Disk Charmer was written because the author wanted a drag & drop eraser with every possible option and a nice, easy to use interface. Requires System 7. System 6 users can use the one in the Utilities section. 2.1.2 contains bug fixes.
Check 32! 1.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:C:Check 32! 1.1.sit 1.1 0 47K 2/09/94 Check 32! 1.1 - If you have more than 8 megabytes of RAM installed in your Mac, chances are you are using 32-bit addressing. Why?? Because if you're not using 32-bit addressing your Mac won't recognize more than 8 megs of RAM. What you might not know, is that some of your applications may not be “32-bit clean”. What does this mean?? If an application is not 32-bit clean, you may be experiencing strange System Errors, crashes, irritability, sleepless nights, etc. That's where “Check 32!” steps in. “Check 32!” looks at your applications to see if they are, indeed, 32-bit compatible. So, check out your drives, floppies or programs, and turn 32 bit addressing on! Requires System 7.

You can then perform individual application launching, document lauching, or entire group launching. Documents may also be either opened or printed. A/S goes a lot further than simple launching. You can attach notes to any group, application, or document entry. You can launch applications with selected documents, all documents, or no documents. You can also choose any application or document and A/S will use AppleEvents to locate the files in the Finder, or ask the Finder to get information on a file. Requires System 7.

Very helpful when the application which created a document isn't available (referred to as an "orphaned" file.). For example, normally TeachText is used as the "substitute" application for orphaned 'TEXT' and 'PICT' documents, but with AppChooser, you can choose any substitution application, such as your favorite paint program for all PICT files. And you can define more! Extremely easy to use, no restart is necessary, and your changes take effect immediately. System 7 is required.

It will handle files of an unlimited length, and will use as much memory as you care to give it — i.e. allocating more memory will speed it up (slightly). To use QuickEncrypt, either drop any number of files onto the application, or start it as usual by double-clicking on application. For each file, if it isn’t encrypted, you will be prompted for a password to encrypt the data, which will be confirmed to ensure you didn’t mis-key it, since there is no way to unencyrpt a file if you forget the password. If the file is encrypted, you will be asked for it’s password and have four guesses. Requires System 7.

PowerBook Tester 1.0.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Powerbook:PowerBook Tester 1.0.sit 1.0 0 10K 2/01/94 PowerBook Tester 1.0 - PowerBook Screen Tester is a utility made so people with Active-Matrix displays can test for screen flaws on their PowerBook (170, 180 or 180c, and Duos). Instead of changing the Desktop pattern like Macworld (August 1993, pg. 91, Test Your Display Flaws) suggested, this will make the entire screen the color you want it to be. The color choices are - black, white, green, blue, and red. When you select a color and choose test, the entire screen changes, and you can look for stuck pixels. This is a good program to run on a Powerbook before you buy it. Afterwords, it might only make you sad. Luckily, I only have one pixel stuck! Make sure there's no lint on the screen, I thought I had lots of stuck pixels!!
OSA Menu 1.0.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:N-O:OSA Menu 1.0.sit 1.0 0 17K 2/01/94 OSA Menu 1.0 - The OSA Menu is an iconic system menu (like the Help menu) that appears on the right side of the menu bar. Its menu items are scripts - choose an item from the menu and the script will run. Some commands are always available, and some are only available within particular applications. Generally the target of the script is the active application, and scripts that operate on the user selection are particularly useful. Scripts in the OSA Menu act like extensions to the command set of the application. The main advantage to scripts in the menu is that you can call them up with one mouse click without leaving your current context for the Finder. Requires Sys 7 and AppleScript, Userland Frontier, QuicKeys 3, etc.
Omega SANE patcher 1.3.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:N-O:Omega SANE patcher 1.3.sit 1.3 0 55K 2/01/94 Omega SANE patcher 1.3 - According to Apple - Omega SANE works only with a Ci-class ROM or better (and the more recent Macs have it in their ROMS already). So older Macs (like the Mac II) won't show any improvement after this patch is applied, and newer models don't need it. This patch makes your math processor faster. Apple released the Omega SANE routines to improve floating point math. These routines are faster and more accurate than the originals. This application will patch the Omega SANE routines into your System 7.0 or 7.1 System file. You should also be able to patch a copy of System 6.0.7/8 (while running under 7, though). New - The ROM patch overrides are even more reliable now. Read docs before using.

Great when it comes to changing the colors of those beveled edges and highlighted zoom box. There is a revert button, if what you create just doesn't look right. This updated version of Color7 fixes a bug in the button drawing, so that it doesn't constantly redraw while under 24-bit mode. It also keeps the colors from changing incorrectly after choosing a color.

The "PowerBook" or "Portable" Control Panel provided by Apple only allows you to enter a single wakeup time. This prevents you from scheduling multiple wake-up sessions. For example, if you wanted to send your faxes at 1:00am, and then download some files at 2:00am, you'd have to stay up until 1:00am, and reset the wakeup timer manually. Insomniac is a very convenient program for automatically sending faxes or email in the middle of the night. Insomniac allows you to program up to fifty wakeup events (only two until you register it for $10).

The Finder will politely close all your open applications, then restart or power off your Mac if software-power off capable. DarkShutdown may be used on any Mac with DarkSide 4.1, which requires System 7 or later.

As an efficient alternative to the standard QWERTY layout, Dvorak may be just the thing you need if you are currently fighting repetive stress injury (RSI) problems.

You can change keyboard layouts at any time with the Keyboard control panel or by pressing command-option-space. Use Key Caps to see where all of the keys are located. After years of QWERTY, it doesn't come easily. You can move the keys around on some keyboards if you want them to read correctly.

At this time, AppletalkOn will examine the current state of Appletalk and turn it on. It will also save the state of AppleTalk and optionally restore that state when you boot up next time. The reason this extension is necessary is that, starting with System 7 TuneUp, AppleTalk does not load into memory if it is off at startup time. This requires you to turn AppleTalk on and then restart. This is annoying at best, and thus was born AppleTalkOn. AppleTalkOn currently occupies 20K or RAM while it runs.
AliasZoo 2.0.2.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:A:AliasZoo 2.0.2.sit 2.0.2 0 138K 9/10/93 AliasZoo 2.0.2 - AliasZoo is the quickest and easiest way to get control over the mountain of Alias files living on your Hard Drive. This version of AliasZoo has been COMPLETELY re-written, and includes many new features and ideas that were requested by people like yourself (who knows, maybe you'll even see some of your own suggestions in this version). I hope you like the result. Some of the changes include - Added a RESOLVE button. Now you can FIND aliases seperately from actually resolving them. The AliasZoo window is now fully re-sizeable. When Resolving aliases, AliasZoo will not unmount volumes until it absolutely has to. You can tell AliasZoo to not mount removable volumes when resolving things. Plus lots more changes!

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

It runs as an application and does not patch any traps. It is important to note that DarkSide 4.1 requires System 7 to run and is 32 bit clean. Documentation is included. DarkSide 4.0 is a fairly complete rewrite from the 3.x code path. It is a superset of the functionality offered under 3.x. This version of DarkSide can run most AfterDark modules. For legal and technical reasons, DarkSide is unable to run the "Star Trek" modules. An excellent shareware screen saver.

All you have to do is to maintain the Control key down while double-clicking. You will then be presented with a Standard File dialog prompting you for an application. The application you choose will then be launched and asked to open the document. If you choose "Cancel" in this dialog, the default (i.e. usual) application will be used. Felix requires System 7. To install it, just drop it into your Control Panel folder and restart. Felix is very small (about 12 kilobytes on disk and less than 512 bytes of RAM) so its size shouldn't bother you too much.
RevertDICT.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Frontier:RevertDICT.sit 0 11K 8/20/93 RevertDICT - This program is a droplet. This is a file for System 7 users who are using Frontier or Frontier Runtime. As I do not have Frontier installed, I have no idea what this file does!

I get tired of always having to open the monitor control panel to change the setting. DepthMaster can do it for you. It lets you set the monitor depth and sound level for each application you want. Then DepthMaster will do it's work when you launch one of the applications. A hot menu can be set up to access DepthMaster. A must for game players! Requires System 7.
Applicon 2.3.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:A:Applicon 2.3.sit 2.3 0 70K 8/20/93 Applicon 2.3 - Applicon displays a tile (a small square window) for each application you have open. Each tile displays an application's icon and name. If you click a tile, the corresponding application will come to the front. Option-clicking hides the previous application as the new application comes forward. If Applicon's tiles are all hidden behind other windows, moving the mouse to a "hot spot" in a corner of the screen will bring them forward. Applicon itself is just an application. It's not an INIT or system extension, not a DA, nor a control panel. It is very reliable and highly compatible with the rest of your software. Requires System 7.
AppDisk 1.6.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:A:AppDisk 1.6.1.sit 1.6.1 0 26K 8/20/93 AppDisk 1.6.1 - AppDisk is a ramdisk. What is a ramdisk? Its a piece of software that lets you use some extra RAM memory as a really fast hard disk. The disk will appear on your desktop just like any other hard disk, and you can copy files to it just like normal. The only difference between a ramdisk and a normal disk is that when you turn the power off to your Mac, or restart, the contents of the ramdisk are lost. This is one reason AppDisk has several options to automatically save a copy of the ramdisk contents onto your hard disk. The difference between AppDisk and most other ramdisk programs is that the AppDisk gets the memory for its disk from its application memory. Requires System 7.
TimeTeller 1.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:T:TimeTeller 1.1.sit 1.1 0 66K 8/11/93 TimeTeller 1.1 - TimeTeller makes your Mac speak the time using a digitized voice. The spoken times are determined by a schedule that you can change using ResEdit, as described in the documentation. TimeTeller requires System 7, and works only on a Mac II or later machine. TimeTeller uses only 48K of application memory while running. Its "disk footprint" is less than 64K. Since TimeTeller is a background application, it does not trap any patches and can't cause compatibility problems. Version 1.1 is compatible with Apple's Sound Manager 3.0. If you aren't using Sound Manager 3.0, I suggest that you continue to use version 1.0 of TimeTeller, which requires only 32K of application memory.

Its appearance is an unabashed knockoff of the Finder’s display; but unlike that display, you can actually use About to interact with your processes and get information on them. A little arrow appears next to the current process. Clicking an icon switches you to its process, and option–clicking an icon hides or shows that process, just like the Hide and Show commands in the application menu. You can customize the display in many ways — use large icons if you prefer, or arrange the processes by their location in memory to reveal the “holes” in your address space. About can maintain a log of application activity and much more! Look for Mountain 1.0 to use with this application.

With FinderBar, several of the Finder's routinely used menu commands are made easier to access. Most of the buttons duplicate the functionality of certain File menu commands, but there are also buttons to open the most frequently used control panels which come with System 7 (at least control panels that I personally find myself using with more fequency than others) as well as the major folders within the System Folder and the System Folder itself.

When you drag a window, instead of the outline of the window, you'll drag the window. Drag'in also has a really cool option called "Multitask while drag'in". If this option is turned on, via the options dialog in the control panel, you'll be able to move around windows and still continue processing while you are doing it. To see an example of this, duplicate a big folder, and move around the progress dialog. You'll notice that the duplication is still happening, even though you are moving the window. Way cool!

Pairing Knife.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:P-Q:Pairing Knife.sit 0 16K 11/06/92 Pairing Knife - Pairing Knife does an unbiased kerning pair frequency analysis of files of type TEXT. Unbiased means that all printing characters (from ASCII 32 to 255) are considered in the analysis. Kerning Pairs, of course, are pairs of characters that can appear in text and that can have kerning applied between them. Frequency Analysis means that every pair combination is counted each time it appears. Only works in drag and drop format under System 7.0.
ElfNiks.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:E:ElfNiks.sit 0 12K 11/06/92 ElfNiks - ElfNiks is SYSTEM 7 ONLY. Its only interface is Drag and Drop, so you cannot use it with earlier Systems. If you double-click on it from a System 6 machine, you will get an error message and the software will quit gracefully. ElfNiks does two dumb jobs, actually. It filters files originating on Unix systems and converts the Linefeeds to Carriage Returns. And it filters DOS files, throwing the Linefeeds away. To use ElfNiks _with_ System 7, simply select the files you want to filter and drag them on the program's icon or an alias of it.

Get More Info151.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:G:Get More Info151.sit 1.5.1 0 36K 10/27/92 Get More Info151 - Get More Info is an extention that provides a very quick and easy way to change the type, creator and/or Finder flags for files directly from the Finder. I found that the drag/drop apps out there that change type/creators were too slow for me and I wanted something faster. You invoke Get More Info by selecting the desired file(s) in the Finder and then holding down the option key while choosing 'Get Info' from the File menu in the Finder (or press cms-option-i after you select the file(s) ). A modal dialog will open allowing you to change the type, creator and any of the Finder flags for the file(s) selected.
Airport QuickStart.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Powerbook:Airport QuickStart.sit 1.02 0 9K 10/27/92 Airport QuickStart - Airport Quickstart is an extension which allows faster starting of a powerbook at those airport security gates when the agents wants to be sure you're carrying a computer, and not a bomb. Enclosed is edition 1.0.2 of Airport QuickStart. It now loads a lot sooner (maybe a few seconds so) and no longer exhibits the incompatibility with Now Startup. It is no longer a cdev but is an extension instead, which is fine because the cdev never worked anyway (there's nothing to configure in this extension...you simply hold down the 'Q' key at startup to make it work).
ToggleAT.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Powerbook:ToggleAT.sit 1 9K 10/26/92 ToggleAT - is an FKEY for the Macintosh PowerBook. The intent of this FKEY isto be able to avoid going to the Chooser to turn off AppleTalk every time you take your PowerBook on the road since this requires a menu item, a button click, an “Are you sure” dialog, an OK dialog and a close box. Turning it back on requires a menu item, a button click, an OK dialog and a close box. This is almost more trouble than it is worth. So, I wanted an FKEY that allowed me to blast AppleTalk off with a single key combo and hit the road. This is the ToggleAT FKEY. It comes as resource ID 12, which is only useful if you use a macro program like QuicKeys to trigger it. If you want to use it without such, you will need to renumber it.
VMTuner.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:U-Z:VMTuner.sit 0 83K 10/14/92 VMTuner - System 7 offers you the ability to 'extend' the available memory by pretending your Macintosh has more RAM than it actually has installed. Instead, the Mac uses a file on disk to store portions of the RAM it currently doesn't need in order to make room for another portion it needs to use now. This way of extending memory is called virtual memory (VM), and it happens transparently for the applications, except for one thing: speed. The so-called swapping of portions of RAM from and to the disk causes your computer to slow down considerably. The larger you set the virtual memory size, the slower your Mac will get.
Startup Font Manager 1.1.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:S:Startup Font Manager 1.1.1.sit 1.1.1 0 20K 10/14/92 Startup Font Manager is a System 7.1-ONLY extension designed to give people the ability to enable/disable fonts at startup. It accomplishes this by moving fonts to/from the Fonts folder (inside the System Folder) from/to a (newly created) "Disabled Fonts" folder inside the "Fonts" folder. Doing this effectively hides fonts from the System, which doesn't install them at startup. Fonts which are hidden from the System this way are not "installed"; that is, they do not show up in Font menus and such.

It provides a simple method for replacing an icon in the Finder's Desktop File. Normally, you would have to rebuild the Desktop File by holding down command-option when rebooting and then waiting for the Finder to rebuild the entire Desktop File. While this is still recommended when adding, changing or removing substantial numbers of application and other files from your hard drive, when designing that one icon for your special folder or new application DeBNDL is the ticket.
Another Finder Hack 1.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:A:Another Finder Hack 1.1.sit 1.1 0 4K 10/14/92 Finder Hack 1.1 - If you run System 7 on your Mac and use multiple hard drives or multiple hard drive partitions, you’ve probably run across an alert when you try to unmount one of those icons saying, "Are you sure that you sure you want to remove the disk "---" from the desktop? It will reappear on the desktop when the Macintosh is restarted." If you’re annoyed by this alert, you can turn it off by using ResEdit. Details inside!

KILLFDR1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:J-K:KILLFDR1.sit 0 4K 9/24/92 KILLFDR1 - Kill Finder is a tiny application that will force the Finder to quit when it is launched. If there are no other applications running, the Finder will simply restart again, so be sure another process is in the background. Quitting the Finder will give you about 300K of memory, but you will lose the configurable part of the apple menu, so be sure you have launched all the apps that you will need. I wrote Kill Finder because I needed a quick and easy way to make the Finder quit. Some programs will make use of the free memory through temporary memory options and such. Kill Finder requires System 7.0 or higher, supports Apple Events, and is 32 bit compatible. Enjoy!

If you elect to make changes to the icon, you have the option to save the new icon in a separate file (perhaps for use at a later date) or you may update the icon for the file itself, similar to the way you can paste custom icons in System 7's Get Info dialog for files.

FinderEdit.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:F:FinderEdit.sit 0 27K 9/19/92 FinderEdit - FinderEdit is one of the most useful system 7 utility applications I've ever come across. The author is Dan Weisman whom I've tried to get-a-hold through his internet address and failed. I took the liberty to modify it slightly to create an Icl8. The docs. give information on where to send the shareware contribution. FinderEdit allows the user to modify file mappings, change the font string, change alias styles, change information under the "get info" box, and add "Quit" commands to the finder. Obviously when it's in use it shuts off the finder so I don't recommend running any other applications in the background while FinderEdit is active.

Zing.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:U-Z:Zing.sit 1 23K 7/28/92 Zing - Zing is a small “chat” application that uses system 7 AppleEvents for its communication. Ping doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles, but it runs in only 30K of memory; small enough to make it possible to run as startup item for most macs. The problem with most larger talk applications is that they’re too large to run, so noone bothers, so you can’t talk after all.

small fortue cookie.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Frontier:small fortue cookie.sit 0 16K 7/28/92 small fortue cookie - This verb uses an associated table of "fortunes", which will automatically be installed if the installation script for this verb is allowed to run normally. This verb also depends on the randomness of the random number generator - you will probably want to install the Randomize verb, that overcomes a bug in Frontier™ 1.0 related to the random number generator. The fortunes comes in two sizes (at present) - big and small; the big one requires more memory, and you may have to increase the memory size for the Frontier application in some environments.
SleepAlert.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Powerbook:SleepAlert.sit 0 3K 7/28/92 SleepAlert - SleepAlert suppresses the warning dialog that appears if you try to put a PowerBook to sleep while AppleTalk is turned on. It basically simulates clicking the Sleep button. It turns out that there are 3 different dialogs (in increasing order of severity) that might appear, depending on the situation, (1) AppleTalk is turned on, (2) You have a file server mounted, (3) Some program is actively using AppleTalk.

scratchpad.cdemo1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Frontier:scratchpad.cdemo1.sit 0 8K 7/28/92 scratchpad.cdemo1 - This script produces a list of all the script objects in an app table. It prompts you for the name of the application and then creates an outline of all the scripts in its "app table". Written by Dave Winer for Baiss Magnusson of AutoDesk, to help list his 200+ Frontier verbs! It's a good example of how to use the table.visit verb, which seems to be kind of confusing. Maybe this script will clear up the confusion?
Scheduler Suite.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Frontier:Scheduler Suite.sit 0 7K 7/28/92 Scheduler Suite - Is there a script you want to run at the same time every day? Or every hour on the hour? That's what the Scheduler Suite is for -- it turns Frontier into a real-time operating system for scripts. There are two menu items that add a new task to the schedule. Add an Hourly Task… adds a task that runs every hour-on-the-hour. The command prompts you for a single-line script. Click on OK to add the task.

random fortune cookie.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Frontier:random fortune cookie.sit 0 4K 7/28/92 random fortune cookie - This verb overcomes a bug in Frontier™ 1.0. The bug is that the pseudo-random number generator uses the same sequence everytime Frontier is launched - this may be useful in some circumstances, but was not for me. When the Randomize verb is installed in Frontier, a code resource (of type RAND) is added to the Frontier.root file - the code contained in this resource "seeds" the psuedo-random number generator sequence with the current time of day. A call to Randomize in your customStartup script is suggested.

ARA Server.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:Frontier:ARA Server.sit 0 15K 7/28/92 ARA Server - One of the most exciting new capabilities to come along in quite some time is Apple Computer's AppleTalk Remote Access, or ARA. It allows you to create a connection between a remote computer and a local area network. We like ARA at UserLand, in fact we use it to bridge computers here all the time. It works. Then we heard that Apple was offering an API for ARA -- we couldn't resist creating a small "applet" to bridge ARA to Frontier script writing. As a result, your scripts can now operate over a phone line! This is going to be very interesting. Using ARA Server and Frontier, you can automatically initiate an ARA connection, manage it, and terminate the connection.

TrashAlias 1.1.1.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:T:TrashAlias 1.1.1.sit 1.1.1 1 15K 4/09/92 TrashAlias 1.1.1 - is a freeware Control Panel for System 7. In System 7, users can create multiple desktop icons to represent a single document, application, or folder. One represents the actual original, but the others, called aliases, just point to it. This feature, for example, allows a user to keep an application located within one folder, but be able launch it by double-clicking on its alias from another location, such as the desktop. The alias is actually a separate file created and maintained by the Finder. However, if a user deletes the original file, the alias file still remains. TrashAlias remedies this problem by automatically deleting any alias files associated with a file (or folder) when it is deleted.

Some folders are exceptions to this. Personally, I’m rather picky about the layout of files and folders on the volumes I manage at work. I am constantly finding folders such as “Empty Folder”, “Copy of Empty Folder”, “Copy of Copy of Empty Folder”, etc. — all with no files. One would think that “users” would have better things to do with their time. This is why I wrote QTrash™. That and I’ve finally managed to find sufficient time to learn C on the Macintosh (I’m learning C and Macintosh programming at the same time, so it’s slow going).

My mouth starts to water, thinking of all the new free source code I'm getting. I start opening folders to browse around and see what's on the disk. But the CD is too slow! It takes all the fun out of it. So -- I wrote a script that builds a table of contents of the CD in a Frontier outline. The index for the February Developer's CD ("20,000 Leagues Under the CD") is in suites.CD.outline. Requires Frontier 1.0. Dave Winer, UserLand Software, February 21, 1992

DTPPrinter.sit System7DL AMUG CD:Files:System7 tools:D:DTPPrinter.sit 1.1 5 17K 9/06/91 When Apple first introduced System 7 at the 1989 Developer's Conference, it included something called the 'New Print Architecture'. One of the really cool parts of the NPA were 'Desktop Printers'. This allowed you to have an icon on your desktop which represented a particular printer. You could then drag a document onto the particular printer icon, and it would print to that printer. Very useful when you have multiple Laserwriters, a Fax Modem, Print to Disk utility, etc. Well, the NPA disappeared, and with it 'Desktop Printers'....In order to correct this MAJOR oversight, I wrote DTPrinter which implements 'Desktop Printers' NOW under System 7.

By option-shift-clicking on the title bar, the application’s “Save As” dialog will appear so you can change the name of the document if you wish. (You can even move around directories if you really wanted to.) The document will reappear sometime during this process.
