- Insanely Great Software Releases System 7 Pack
-
- Edison, NJ, October 10, 1991 - Insanely Great Software today announced the release of the
- System 7 Pack for the Apple Macintosh. The System 7 Pack, the first utility package developed
- solely for System 7 users, includes three utilities: Finder 7 Menus!, Rename Delay Editor!, and
- Application-Document Linker!
-
-
- Finder 7 Menus! lets System 7 users change, add, and delete command key combinations from
- the System 7 Finder. For example, many users would like to be able to press Command Key-T to
- Empty the Trash, Command Key-M to Make an Alias, or Command Key-S to ShutDown. With
- Finder 7 Menus!, they’ll be able to make all these changes and more in seconds.
-
-
- Rename Delay Editor! lets System 7 users change the rename delay in the System 7 Finder.
- With System 6, Macintosh users could simply click on an icon and start typing to edit a file name.
- With System 7, Apple decided to add a “rename” delay that forces users to wait a second before
- they can edit a file name. Apple implemented this behavior to help prevent users from mistakenly
- changing file names, but ironically, this new behavior has often confused users and annoyed users
- who do not wish to wait for the Finder. Insanely Great Software is pro-choice on this very
- important System 7 issue. Rename Delay Editor! lets users decide for themselves if they want a
- rename delay, and if they do, how long the delay should be.
-
-
- Application—Document Linker! gives System 7 users the power to change the relationships
- between documents and applications. With System 7, Apple provided a new capability where
- TEXT and PICT (Picture) files would automatically run TeachText if the application that created
- them could not be found. Unfortunately, Apple did not allow users to change the default
- application from TeachText to another of their liking. Apple also did not give System 7 users the
- ability to add new “links” between documents and applications. With Application—Document
- Linker!, System 7 users will not only be able to change the default settings, but also to add as
- many links as they wish. For example, Application-Document Linker! users could make a new link
- where all MacWrite documents would automatically open Microsoft Word. As with all the utilities
- in the System 7 Pack, Application—Document Linker is a cinch to use.
-
-
-
- The System 7 Pack is available immediately for only $29.95. Registered users of any Insanely
- Great Software product may obtain the System 7 Pack for only $19.95.
-
-
- The System 7 Pack is currently available directly from Insanely Great Software. To order, simply
- send a check payable to Adam Stein to Adam Stein, Insanely Great Software, 126 Calvert Ave.
- E., Edison, NJ 08820.
