This is a FileMaker Pro productivity tool for enhancing working with ScriptMaker. If you are a FileMaker Pro 3.0 user or developer and write ScriptMaker scripts this small application can save you a lot of time. ProMaker Utils makes it possible to paste an entire ScriptMaker script (all steps) from a TEXT file into a FileMaker Pro script. No more clicking until your hands hurt, just enter them in one go! New in version 0.9.2: - Fixed problem with Filemaker hidden. - Fixed an incompatibility with Kaleidoscope. ProMaker Now works with Kaleidoscope and Aaron. - Added Preferences - You can now stop a paste in progress by holding down the control key. How does it work? - Open FileMaker Pro and the script you want to paste the steps in. - Use ProMaker Utils to open a TEXT file with the script-steps in it (some sample text files are included). - Enter the complete script by pressing command-E. ProMaker Utils will bring FileMaker to the front and start pasting the steps into the selected script. It is that simple. System Requirements Macintosh with 68030 or better or Power Macintosh. System 7.1 or later (also tested on the upcoming 8.0 release). ProMaker Utils requires 600 Kb of RAM. ProMaker Utils doesn't use a patch or an extension so no potential conflicts there. Of course you need a copy of FileMaker Pro, this should be version 3.0v4 (US). or 3.0Bv4 (British). For more information, please read the Read Me file enclosed, or visit our Web site at: .

This version should replace any earlier releases of AutoLaunch Pro in the archives, but should sit alongside AutoLaunch, the single-user shareware version. AutoLaunch Pro is a screen saver engine for the Mac OS that runs Macromedia Director projectors and other standalone presentations. It provides a high quality, cost effective means for multimedia authors to distribute their work as screen savers, complete with customizations to ensure it fits with the "look and feel" of their project. AutoLaunch Pro provides the following features: o Runs a Macromedia Director projector or any other Macintosh application as a screen saver. o Provides users with screen saver controls for on/off, delay, and activation options in an easy to use control panel. o Allows authors to customize the AutoLaunch Pro control panel with their own artwork using a user-friendly setup application. o Requires no special scripting of Director projectors, and allows use of all Director features and Xtras. This software is a full-featured demonstration version. Before distributing screen savers with AutoLaunch Pro, you must purchase a license code, as explained in the accompanying documentation. In addition to the standard internet archives, information and updates are available at: AutoLaunch Pro may be included on the UMich and Info-Mac CD-ROMs. Jon Gotow gotow@stclairsw.com St. Clair Software http://www.stclairsw.com/ Fax (330)549-3495 ftp://ftp.stclairsw.com/ [Archived as /info-mac/app/ss/autolaunch-pro-109.hqx; 483K] ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 May 1997 06:23:38 -0700 From: help@ambrosiasw.com Subject: [*] ColorSwitch_Pro_1.1.0.hqx ColorSwitch Pro takes the cue from Apple's vaunted Control Strip, adds many sorely-missed features to the mix, and packages it all up in a tidy, convenient pull-down menu that's always available when you need it. ColorSwitch Pro allows you to master your Macintosh with a set of convenient controls for adjusting things such as PPP dial-up connections, network settings, speaker volume, monitor resolution and color depth, audio CDs, and more. Simply pull down ColorSwitch Pro's handy icon-menu, select the setting you'd like to change, and instantly ColorSwitch Pro does your bidding. No more fiddling with a bevy of control panels or sacrificing your desktop space to Control Strip. ColorSwitch Pro's real power lies in its Shortcuts feature: any combination of settings can be grouped together into a single Shortcut. For instance, you might have a "Game" Shortcut that switches your monitor to 640x480, 256 colors and cranks up the sound volume. Once you've set up a Shortcut, a single menu choice makes it work its magic, no matter how many settings it changes. You can also assign a keystroke to your Shortcuts, or even link them to certain applications so that your settings take effect the instant those applications are launched. Set and forget. The kicker is ColorSwitch Pro's modularity: ColorSwitch Pro uses a plug-in architecture which allows for additional modules that extend its functionality. Simply drop modules into the "ColorSwitch Pro Modules" folder, and they're instantly integrated into the ColorSwitch Pro menu -- no rebooting necessary. ColorSwitch Pro is a quick, convenient way to stay in control of your Macintosh. It is instantly available when you need it, while otherwise staying out of your way. ColorSwitch Pro is an elegant utility that will become an essential part of your Macintosh experience.

The standard bookmark file contains information such as the add date, the last visit and the last modified time. This extra information is pretty much useless to most people and is removed by gURLfriend. The gURLfriend application also searches through your bookmarks list and indexes all the bookmark folder names and creates a table of contents. This table of contents appears above the list of URLs when viewed using a browser. By clicking on the folder name, the user is brought to the place in the URL list that contains those links. How do I use gURLfriend? gURLfriend is very easy to use. Simply drag and drop your bookmarks file onto the gURLfriend application. gURLfriend will write out a file named gURLfriend.html. Your original bookmarks file is untouched. You can then post this HTML file onto your web page. Why would I want to use gURLfriend? If you are like me you put a copy of your bookmarks list on your home page. By using gURLfriend you will significantly decrease the size of this file and also make it easier to use. My bookmarks file size went from 64K to 35K after running them through gURLfriend. It is also indexed which makes it easier to use. A parsed bookmarks file takes much less time to transfer when posted on your page. Where can I find updates to this program and other software by the author?

Sloop, by Quadratic Software, is a program that adds cursor focusing to the MacOS. What is cursor focusing? Cursor focusing is a different way to navigate between windows. When cursor focusing is enabled, whatever window the cursor is over automatically moves to the front ("acquires focus") without having to click in that window. This navigational strategy is popular on some other windowing operating systems like the X Window System. Up until now it has not been available for the MacOS. Sloop generally makes the MacOS easier to use by helping you sail through your windows and applications without having to incessently click your mouse. Sloop improves overall productivity by speeding up window and application navigation. Sloop includes many options for creating a custom solution to suit your needs. And best of all, Sloop makes people who use other operating systems that don't have cursor focusing envious of the enhanced power of the MacOS! Since I started using the first development versions of Sloop, I haven't been able to stop. When I turn Sloop off or uninstall it from my computer, I quickly become frustrated at all the clicking I have to do. Until I started using Sloop, I took all this clicking for granted and didn't even realize how much time I spent doing it. Sloop is now an essential part of my daily Mac usage. I hope after trying it out for a week or two, Sloop will become an indispensible part of your Mac usage as well. Sloop actually consists of two programs: the Sloop Sail and the Sloop Rudder. The Sloop Sail belongs in the Extensions Folder of your System Folder. It is what does the actual work of tracking the mouse and switching among windows and applications. The Sloop Rudder let's you customize Sloop by setting various options. The Rudder also includes an extensive online manual and help facility. Sloop 1.0.1 fixes a few bugs, and adds one new feature. Specifically, here are the fixes: Conflict Catcher no longer reports damaged resources in the Sail; the help screen no longer reloads if you choose the same topic from the popup menu; the Sail resource fork should be more stable; I fixed a problem where in some applications it wouldn't select windows if only the bottom of a window was showing; you can now add old-style desk accessories to the application lists; I fixed a problem with artificial clicks on the scroll bars in some applications; the Rudder now correctly handles the hiliting of the "Factory" button; the Rudder is now compatible with NoBalloonMenu; there is now better error reporting; and the help topics menu now has separators.

Stalker Internet Mail Server 1.0b Introduction The Stalker Internet Mail Server is a server application implementing Internet mail exchange service using the SMTP protocol, remote mailbox access using the POP3 protocol, and the "poppwd" service for remote password modification. This version of the Stalker Internet Mail Server is FREE. It does not have any limitations, and it can be used to support several hundred accounts. The high performance Mail Server relies on OpenTransport, so OT 1.1.1 or better should be installed on the server computer. While this version is still slower than the best UNIX mail servers on comparable CPUs, several new enhancements will be implemented shortly. But even this beta version easily handles 100+ incoming and 100+ outgoing simultaneous connections on a Quadra or low-end PowerPC machines. The server itself still has the 68K-only code, so the speed of the native version is expected to be limited with the MacOS File System bottlenecks only. The system design allows to configure, control, and monitor the server from any workstation on your LAN. The CommuniGator application version 2.7 and better (the client component of the CommuniGate(tm) Messaging System) can be used to perform all administrating operations. It can be downloaded from the regular CommuniGate sources: or any major Internet Mac archive. When talking to the Stalker Internet Mail Server, the CommuniGator application enables only its administrating functions. Future releases will allow you to configure the Stalker Internet Mail Server via any Web browser, so the CommuniGator application will not be necessary. Future releases of the Stalker Internet Mail Server will support both TCP and AppleTalk connections. The SIMS mailbox format is identical to the UNIX mailbox format, and if TCP/IP services are not available on the LAN, any mailer that can read UNIX mailboxes directly (such as Eudora(r)) can also work with the Server accounts via File Sharing.

"Verbs&Nouns" is an application that helps you to learn the inflection patterns of verbs and nouns in a foreign language. The program has many other useful features to help you in learning or researching a foreign language. It can be used as a dictionary as well. The program lets you create a database of words. You can easily construct the inflection rules for words that are regular. You can include other information about each word, such as a translation, grammar characteristics, comments, etc. The program automatically generates exercises to allow you to practise inflection or translation. You can identify many groups of words to use them in exercises or for browsing. The application supports sound. There are some inflection dictionaries for this program available already. There are: Italian Verbs and Nouns, Polish Verbs and Nouns, Russian Verbs and Nouns, Swiss-German Verbs and Nouns, Modern Greek Verbs.

Virtue is my guess at Apple Computer's upcoming "Charcoal" font--scheduled to appear in Mac OS 8. There is a lot of controversy about this font, and honestly, I think that most of it is unjustified. Basically, a lot of people do not want this font to appear in the next OS. I think that this feeling is based on a "reverse-engineered" font developed by Greg Landweber for his Aaron extension and Kaleidoscope control panel. Greg built his font from looking at various screenshots and did a good job at making a very complete font. However, the spacing information and special characters characters seemed a little off to me. It seems that Apple couldn't decide whether Charcoal should have two pixels between the letters or just one. This leads to a cramped apperance on screen. So here's what I did: basically, I took his work and tried to space it how I would if I was making Apple's next font. I studied the "Chicago" system font and and used it as a template for my font. After about 2 hours of tinkering, I had a bitmap font that looked really good as a replacement font for Kaleidoscope. About a week later, after tinkering some more, I think I've made a vast improvement. I also created an outline version of this font. I am basically doing this as an exercise. I'm curious how close my version will match up to Apple's. I also generated some additional bitmaps. The sizes 9, 10 and 11 pt are all my ideas of how the font should scale on screen. For those of you who love Espy Sans, you will probably enjoy the 11 pt as a replacement system font.
