If you are reading this, you've already installed it! However, for users of previous versions of TF Commenter, we recommend that you remove TF Commenter and rebuild your desktop (hold down the command & option keys during startup) since this version has some new information in it. Your users can download this file from AMUG CD:Files:Show Info™ 2.0
Description:
Show Info™ 2.0 is an upgrade of TF Commenter which was purchased by the Arizona Macintosh Users Group from Chris Johnson. It is designed to be the easiest way to view descriptions/pict previews and decompress files on the AMUG CD-ROM, "BBS in a BOX". If the file you are previewing is an art, font or a QT movie then a pict preview will be displayed on the left side and the description on the right. If the file does not contain a pict preview only the description window will be displayed.
You may drag and drop multiple or single files from "BBS in a BOX" on top of Show Info™ to view their descriptions and pict previews when available. You may also write descriptions in the description box and save them to disk. In this version of Show Info you cannot paste pict previews into the file, only read them.
Decompression:
We have added several new features in this version of Show Info™ 2.0 including the use of AppleEvents to decompress your files via StuffitExpander. The "Expand" button performs this task. In order for it to work, users must be running system 7, and StuffitExpander must be either (a) currently running or (b) on the same drive as current system folder. If StuffitExpander is not running, it will be launched by Show Info™ 2.0 and sent the event to uncompress the selected file. StuffitExpander will automatically quit when it finishes. The "Expand" button will gray out when files are selected that StuffitExpander cannot decompress.
