Subject: 37thResEx 2.0.2; the resources extractor.
37thResEx is a useful application for seeing, extracting, copying and
transferring resources from files. By means of it you may:
- view all types of resources into files;
- view all resources of determined type;
- view resources contents;
- know resources attributes;
- gather resources infos;
- copy individual resources or whole types into already existing files or
into new ones;
- modify attributes of copied resources;
- modify attributes of original resources;
- remove from files individual resource or whole types;
- check the Resource Fork integrity.
37thResEx can also convert resources of type 'snd ', 'TEXT', 'PICT', and
icon families into double-clickable files:
- converted Icon families show theirs own icon on the desktop;
- converted 'snd ' resources become sound files;
- converted 'TEXT' resources become styled text files
- converted 'PICT' resources become pict files.
Last, but not least: by means of hot key, you may achieve directly the
Conversion dialogs, without opening the file-related window. Moreover, if
you launch 37thResEx by using this feature, after completing its job it
quits itself automatically.
37thResEx is Internet Config, Drag Manager, Balloon Help and Navigation
Manager aware, moreover it's Appearance savvy. It requires at least System
7 to run.

* Requirements:
PPC, 6 MB RAM,
MacOS 7.55 and up, (8.0 and before also need the Appearance manager; info

* Description:
3DBox is an application that creates boxes in OBJ format and matching
texture map templates as PICTs. You give the heigth, width and length of
the box and decide in which resolution you would like to get the texture
map.
The created models can be used in any 3D program that supports OBJ import
and parametric mapping of textures.
3DBox provides the option to leave gaps at certain edges in the texture
map, so you can create completely different designs for the different sides
of your box without getting the usual inaccuracies at the edges of the box.
* Further notices:
3D-Box may be included in commercially available CD-ROM of the archives.

From: Pecetta
Subject: asynckeys press release
Version 1.1 of Febraury 2001 © by Stefano Ghielmi &
Stéphane Madrau
What is AsyncKeys! ?
'AsyncKeys!' mean: 'Asynchronous keyboard reading',
that is when the computer reads the status of the key
pressed on the keyboard without waiting for them to
generate a keyDown event. AsyncKeys is a little
utility that shows you the exact keyboard reference
number and its ASCII equivalent to a keystroke or key
combination you can press.Note that if you change the
layout of your keyboard (I.E. from US keyboard to
French keyboard) some ASCII character changes but its
keyboard reference number doesn't.
AsyncKeys! contains the concept of the code of
SpeedApp INIT and SwitchRes Extension. It just comes
out from a simple discussion in between me and
Stéphane Madrau, and it have been created just for fun
and for to be a little utility for programmers and for
to satisfy some curiosity of everyday people when
using a compter, it is our free tribute for to teach
and explain something to Macintosh users.
System Requirements:
AsyncKeys! have been tested on a Powermac with Mac os
7.6 and higher installed, actually it is at its first
release and no incompatibilities are known, AsyncKeys!
may work on 68k computers too, but we haven't tested.
Hints:
- Press any key on your keyboard and see what result
is given.
- Modification key are Option, Shift and Control keys.
- The layout character you see is exactly the one
given in the Key Caps Apple menuItem.
- F1 to F4, Caps lock, Command, on/off key, and the
volume/eject CD (in the new USB extended keyboard)
keys, aren't showed
because those keys are used by the System.
Disclaimer:
This software is Freeware and it is released "as is"
then no support is provided and no reference for it
too. Use it at your own risk. This software just reads
keyboard events, we refuse all liabilities about
damagements or malfunctions.
You can copy it, send it to a friend, put it on a CD,
etc. Just dont modify it and alwais include in its
package all the files you find in its folder after the
download from its web site.
What's new in version 1.1:
Added two fields for to show the hexadeciamal value of
the integers keynumber and ASCII references numbers.
Added a new field which tells you if the pressed key
one choosed from the numeric pad.

Features include support for a simple sprite graphics engine, sound,
MacinTalk speech, MacTCP, AppleScript, Drag&Drop and OOP programming.
Every personal computer should come with a simple, easy to learn, programming
language. Chipmunk Basic was my contribution for the very first PowerMacs.
Chipmunk Basic only comes with a man page and a quick reference to the
Mac specific functions. The language is mostly compatible with books on
programming in BASIC that were written between around 1978 and 1990.
This version is a both bug fix and new feature release. It is still free
for educational and non-commercial distribution and use (but only for those
who don't believe that using the BASIC language causes brain damage. :-)
Permission is granted to include this version of Chipmunk Basic on CD-ROM
compendiums of the Info-Mac and UMich archives. Please replace older
versions of Chipmunk Basic that are in the archives with this version.
Please make sure that any redistribution includes the documentation.

CodePerfect (formerly known as CodeWizard) is a powerful, easy-to-use
tool, which converts and lists many types of codes needed in
programming, web design and other forms of use of the Mac OS
computing environment. While CodePerfect uses advanced conversion
routines, the use of the program is very simple. All you need to do
to convert a value to another is to click on the right conversion tab
and you're ready to go. You can also combine the value searches by
using MultiSearch. CodePerfect also converts text files from Mac
format to Windows and vise versa
The user interface (UI) in CodePerfect is very self-explanatory.
Application consist of only one window, where all functions are
performed. The needed feature is chosen from 7 tabs. The last tab
(MultiSearch) combines all CodePerfect's conversion methods in one
function, but it's easier to use specific methods if you need only
one type of conversion, because then you can build a list of several
conversions (for example Hex code to character).

New version includes improved script reporting and automatic problem

PHOENIX. December 17, 1999. Over the last few years, DocuScript has shown
itself to be an invaluable tool for Filemaker developers looking to
troubleshoot and document their projects. Now with improved script
reporting and automatic problem detection, it has become even easier for
developers to rediscover their scripts.
Aim DocuScript at a FileMaker project and it will extract every script in
every file and quickly generate a series of reports -- starting with an
overview of the files in the project, right down to the individual script
steps. Click on a reference to an external script, and DocuScript
instantly jumps to that script. Move through scripts step by step, or let
DocuScript trace through an entire script for you and build a
hierarchical report of every instruction, every external script, and
every recursion.
One of the new features in DocuScript 2.0, and one that will appeal to
anyone responsible for large FileMaker projects, is the small, but
powerful Problem Dot. DocuScript now automatically searches through all
your scripts and marks any file containing an error, including such
things as broken relationships, missing fields, and missing layouts.
Click on a file name and you'll find another Problem Dot next to each
problem script. Click on a script and continue to follow the dots
straight to the bugs.
You can generate a Problem Report that summarizes all the problems found
by DocuScript, or perform your own customized searches across all the
files in your project. Search for a field name, a status function, or any
of the standard FileMaker terms built into the DocuScript search engine.
With all this script information gathered together, DocuScript is also
the perfect tool for documenting your projects. You can add comments
anywhere in the project database generated by DocuScript or easily copy
the information you need into your own reports.
DocuScript requires FileMaker 5.0 running under Mac OS 7.6.1 or better on
a PowerPC-equipped Macintosh. You can purchase DocuScript for $79.00 US,
online from the Waves In Motion website, or upgrade your current copy for
$39.00.
For all their products, Waves In Motion offers a demo version you can try
before you make your purchase. The demo version of DocuScript allows you
to try out all the features in the application, but does not allow you to
save your work.
Waves in Motion is the developer of a growing collection of FileMaker
solutions and plug-ins, including Script Scheduler, the Analyzer, and The
Dragon Web Surveys. They are active members of the FileMaker Solution
Alliance and the Apple Developer Program, and have been consulting and
developing FileMaker solutions since 1990.

So, we've decided to develop in Director this small "engine" which allows

A Macintosh development and debugging tool. (Freeware)
FindErrorLib is a small Power Macintosh native shared library that can be
used by C and C++ developers to obtain, at run-time, the name and
description, if available, of any of 1,307 Macintosh error codes for
display in error alerts or dialogs.
Since the shared library can be "weak-linked" to the application, the
developer has the option of using it during development and, if so desired,
not including it with the final software release, with no code
modifications required to remove it.
Minor updates to the shared library can be performed by simply replacing it
in the System folder, with no need to recompile any application that uses
it.
FindErrorLib v1.2 contains a code fragment that accesses an internal
compilation of information derived from the Apple Universal Headers files,
Universal Interfaces 3.1, and is current as of Mac OS 8.1.
The FindErrorLib v1.2.sit archive includes the shared library, sample code
for accessing it, and about 4 pages of detailed information regarding its
installation and use.
FindErrorLib v1.2 is offered as Freeware by its author, Fred Burnham, who
originally created it as a development and debugging tool for his own
software development projects.

HexEdit v 1.2
Copyright © 1993 Jim Bumgardner
Portions Copyright © 1996 Lane Roathe
Here is my modified version of HexEdit, which I have placed at version 1.2
(v1.0x is
from Jim Bumgardner, v1.1x is from Dave Polaschek)
From Jim's original Docs:
HexEdit is a hexdump viewer and editor that works similarly to the hex
editor provided
with Apple's ResEdit. It allows you to edit either the data fork or the
resource fork of a
file.
I wrote HexEdit because I needed to be able to insert/delete bytes from
the data fork of
files I was testing, and tools like FEdit don't have insert/deletion.
HexEdit is freeware. The author retains the copyright, including the
right to alter or sell
the program. You may use and copy HexEdit only on a non-commercial basis.
You
may not sell this program without the author's permission.
New features added:
Ability to compare two files, & preferences for this feature
Ability to switch between forks of the same file with a menu command,
even if the other fork has not been directly opened yet (ie, it
auto-opens).
Source code is now completely free of warnings (well, in CodeWarrior
anyway)
Source is now Universal Headers 2.x compatible
Program is not "fat", with source modifications for Power PC compiles
---------
The original idea for file comparison was made by Jeff Smith.
Please, feel free to distribute this version of HexEdit as you please, I'd
just ask for
appropriate credit. I happen to use this program quite a bit, so if you
make any changes
please let me know, and I will try to get them into a new version.
Thanks to Jim for releasing such a fine program, and even more so for the
source, as it's
helped to make this program much more useful for myself and others! You
may wish to
check out IFD's mac web site, as it has several utilities w/source.

Small Installers Save Time and Money. InstallerMaker builds the smallest
installers in the industry to give you added time and cost savings. Using
the StuffIt Engine, InstallerMaker creates installers faster and smaller
(up to 15% smaller) than any other software installation utility. Smaller
installers download faster and easier, give you more space on your CD or
diskette, increase hard disk space for fewer hardware upgrade needs, and
broaden network bandwidth. These time and cost savings go straight to your
bottom line!
Nothing's Easier to Use. InstallerMaker's intuitive point-and-click
interface makes setting destinations and installation conditions
practically effortless. It's fully scriptable and recordable, allowing you
to automate the build process to save labor and improve quality through more
consistent and faster installer builds. Record actions as scripts, or build
your own, to automate future builds and reduce the workload of your
engineering staff. Install files from FTP or HTTP sites easily and create
demoware or trialware in minutes.
InstallerMaker is designed to give you all the powerful features you need
in one easy-to-use package.
Requirements:
InstallerMaker and its installers require a Macintosh with a 68020 or
better processor. The InstallerMaker application requires System 7.1 or
higher and 8 MB of allocated memory.

Announcing new version: Leonardo IDE 3.4.1
Leonardo is an integrated environment for development, reversible execution
and visual debugging of C programs (see
http://www.dis.uniroma1.it/~demetres/Leonardo/). It is especially well
suitable for algorithm animation purposes and for learning the C language.
Leonardo's executable file includes:
- a text editor with syntax coloring (based on Marco Piovanelli's WASTE
text engine)
- a fully reversible virtual CPU for executing programs
- a compiler for the ANSI C language (generates code for Leonardo's virtual
CPU)
- a compiler for the logic-based ALPHA visualization language
- built-in operating system facilities for process, I/O and memory management
- an integrated logic-based general-purpose 2D visualization system
- a simple graph editor
With Leonardo:
- you can execute the code in reverse, like for example, when you are
stepping through a program, you can step backwards, essentially undoing a
previous step
- you can embed in any C program special declarations written in the
graphic language Alpha that allow you to declare graphical objects and to
let their attributes (size, color, position etc.) depend on the content of
variables of the C program itself. When such variables change, all
graphical objects depending on them automatically change to reflect the new
state.
Leonardo is distributed with a repository of C programs including several
implementations of classical algorithms and visualization/animation demos.
Leonardo's package for the Macintosh (1.6 MB, PPC, MacOS 7.5 or higher) is
free.
Major news in Leonardo 3.4.1: popup menus in text windows for listing
defined C functions and for changing the font size, UNIX-like argc/argv
support, fixed some bugs, added new programs to the repository.

System 8.5 or higher and PowerPC are required. LSQL is threaded, and a long
query won't block other queries or other running softwares. It works on
MacOS 8.6, which was the primary reason to develop the software, since isql
can run due to the font bug on MacOS 8.6.
"LSQL for FreeTDS" has no other requirement but the one before.
"LSQL for OpenClient" requires Sybase OpenClient 10. OpenClient 11 works,
but SYBASE has to be setup to point to the folder of the interface file.
LSQL is distributed as shareware. For lateste version, mount the public

Dear Mac users,
a new beta preview release of Mac06, the POSIX system for MacOS, is available:
Release 0.99 for 680x0 Macs (and PPC of course through the emulator).
Mac06 features simple installation and runs in parallel with MacOS (7.x and
later) - either 68k or PPC. The file system maps the MacOS HFS files to a
POSIX namespace, provides device files for terminal windows, serial I/O and a
/proc directory. Mac06 has multitasking capability - even in parallel with
the Finder. The command shell (sh) supports I/O redirection, pipes,
and shell variable substitution. Many useful commands like ls, cat, more,
fgrep, find, test, expr, mkdir, rmdir, mv, cp, uuencode/decode, cal are provided.
C-Libraries to compile application programs with Symantec C or Code Warrior are provided.
Major new features of release mac06-0.99:
* assembler, linker and executor for 680x0 code
* assembler for Power PC including AltiVec (but no execution yet)
* c89 preprocessor running (c89 -E)
* initd to initialize and control system activities
* additional commands
The new C compiler already allows preprocessing but the parser and code generator
are disabled (as they have still too many bugs that will have to be fixed for
release 1.0).
The kernel and command line shell are part of the Mac06-Basic package provided
by info-mac.
The Mac06-Advanced package which includes the compiler, assembler and linker can be
downloaded directly from

(1) a Macintosh with a 68020 (or better) or a PowerPC
(2) MacOS 7.1 or better
(3) 2.5 MB of available RAM
(4) A C/C++ compiler to actually compile the code produced
by Mac F2C.
Version 1.4.1 is a minor upgrade to v1.4 to make Mac F2C fully
compatible with CodeWarrior Pro Release 3. It also includes a
new installer and revised documentation.
Mac F2C is based on the f2c translator developed by AT&T.
Mac F2C is freeware. It may be freely used and freely distributed
so long as all documentation and copyright notices are included.

Subject: Mac OS 8.5 TMPLs 1.02 - change alias style, system fonts
If you've hacked with ResEdit before, these template resources will
help you expand your font selections. It offers some of the
functionality of AppearanceHopper, but the interface is true ResEdit
obscurity. If you are obsessed with system hacking, this one's for
you. On the other hand, if anything more geeky than icon editing is
beyond your reach, just spring for the user-friendly and more capable
AppearanceHopper.
Version 1.02 adds radio buttons to make setting the alias style easier.

Subject: MacPython 2.0 Source
MacPython 2.0 is officially released as of now!
Python is a high-level programming language that is suitable for
simple scripting tasks as well as writing large
applications. MacPython offers a lot of Mac-specific extensions,
including access to all major MacOS Toolbox modules (QuickDraw,
QuickTime, AppleScript and many more), an Integrated Development
Environment (in Python!), frameworks for windowing applications,
unix-compatible cgi-scripting, image-manipulation libraries, numerical
libraries, tk-based machine independent windowing and lots more. It
also uniquely among Pythons allows you to create fully selfcontained
(and, hence, distributable) applications without needing a C compiler
or anything.
MacPython is completely free, and Open Source.
Go to http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython.html to download the installer
or the full source distribution, and for more information on
MacPython. Go to http://www.python.org for general information on
Python on all platforms.
For those familiar with MacPython, here is the edited list of
highlights when comparing this version with MacPython 1.5.2 (see
www.python.org for machine-independent differences):
- Thread support
- Tkinter works again
- Appearance support
- Navigation support
- Offscreen QuickDraw
- Drag manager support
- Much better CGI support and examples
The bad news:
- This release is PPC only. 68K users should stick with 1.5.2.
- This release is not Carbonized yet. Expect a Carbon MacPython in a
few months.

The Name Registry, is a data structure maintained by Mac OS that stores
hardware and software configuration information in the second generation of
Power Macintosh computers.
This Name Registry is only discribed in the developper documentation
"Designing PCI Cards and Drivers for Power Macintosh Computers".
NameRegistry Inspector will show you these data. You will find very very
interesting things, mainly in the recent Macintosh : detailed hardware
configuration, memory sims characteristics, various internal speeds (CPU,
memory bus, backside cache, PCI bus, USB, IEE1394 ...), Mac serial number,
case color code, detailed USB configuration, various manufacturers names of
your USB devices (ie: Apple mouse and keyboard ...) etc...
NameRegistry Inspector is able to save the results in a file or to print.
Shareware notice :
NameRegistry Inspector is a 10$ US shareware.
It runs on a Power Macintosh or compatible.
Program installation and use :
+ Simply lauch NameRegistry Inspector
+ The programm will list the entire Name Registry which consist of a
hierarchy, inside which there are properties.
+ For a each property the program shows the name and if available the
associated value(s).
+ In case of big values (hundreds of bytes) the data is shown as a memory
dump : hex values, then ASCII representation if possible
+ In case of very big values (thousands of bytes), the memory dump is
limited to the first 608 bytes. This will be changed if future release,
where the user will have the choice to give a max dump size or not. The 608
Bytes limit was added to avoid a too big list...
+ For short values (below 5 bytes), data is also shown as decimal values.
Version history :
01/04/2000 : V1.0 first public version
Future releases :
Add user options like :
+ Choose the # of bytes to dump for big properties
+ A more detailed summary of the configuration
+ A more detailed user's manual with a commented Registry listing

Subject: RBdbMaker v.1.0 for Macintosh.
RBdbMaker is a REALbasic Database management tool. It was initially
created to overcome some of the bugs associated with trying to create
and edit REALdatabases from within the REALbasic environment. I found
that during development, inspecting the databases that I built ran the
risk of corrupting the database, whereafter I was unable to open the
database. Besides the constant backup approach, I also needed a way to
manipulate the database after I built it and the REALbasic environment
is not that flexible with its own built-in database engine.
With RBdbMaker, it is possible to store your SQL in a text file, and to
call on RBdbMaker whenever one needs to recreate or change the database
-- entirely through SQL commands. This is particularly helpful for large
database constructs.
This distribution is fully functional shareware. A message box will
popup during certain functions reminding the user to register the
software.

Subject: Resource Extractor v1.0
This is a fully functional, 30-day demo of Resource Extractor. Resource
Extractor is a shareware utility that makes it easy to extract any type and
number of resources from any file. Resource Extractor takes those resources,
and creates a folder of individual ResEdit files, each containing one of the
resources. These are then suitable to drop into a REALbasic project.
Developers may also want to collect resources used in their projects, like
cursors,icons, or sounds. HyperCard or SuperCard developers may just want
to be able to collect resources in folders that make it easy to categorize
and organize them.
For developers who are working with SuperCard projects, Resource Extractor
can also extract resources from the data fork as well as the resource fork.
Now some of the fantastic externals developed by SuperCard developers,
distributed as SuperCard projects, can be used with other programming
environments!

Subject: Resource Tweezer 1.0
Resource Tweezer is a utility to allow you to extract any type of
resource from a file or application. Resource Tweezer places the
extracted resources(in the form of ResEdit files) in folders, each
containing all extracted resources of that type(For example, PICTs go
in the PICTs folder). These resources are then suitable for use with any
REALbasic project, or other purposes. Resource Tweezer is designed
especially with REALbasic programmers in mind, but it may also be
helpful for individuals who wish to extract sounds or pictures for
personal use, such as new system alerts or desktop pictures. Check out
Resource Tweezer at http://www.PKIndustries.com/ResourceTweezer/
Please include this on any CD-Roms you desire.

Subject: respondsrc - preemptive multitasking w/source code
This package contains source code for Respond!
Respond! is a control panel that brings a limited form of preemptive
multitasking to the Macintosh right now. And it runs on any Mac, 68k or
PowerPC, with System 7.0 or later. No more waiting for MacOS X or
Rhapsody. Even in Mac OS 8, if you hold down a menu in the Finder,
processes will not continue in the background. With Respond!, you can be
holding down a menu (particularly useful with Sticky Menus in Mac OS 8), or
clicking in a the zoom or close boxes (or the WindowShade collapse box in
Mac OS 8), or dragging a window or the thumb of a scroll bar, and processes
will continue in the background.
Respond! includes the option to use Live Window drag. When this option is
turned on, the full window, not just the outline, will be dragged, and both
foreground and background processing will continue, meaning the window
itself will be updated as its being dragged around! For example, you can
drag around an mp3 player window and watch as it continues playing and
updating the time counter while moving.

Subject: Script Palette (an AppleScript Utility)
Script Palette is an easy way to improve your script editor. But don't be
misled: what it propose doesn't have the power of real scripting tools.
Listening to the complaints about Apple's Script Editor's shortcomings, I
have written in AppleScript using Dialog Director and Akua Sweets (you'll
also need Jon's Commands if you don't have OS 8.5) an applet to help fill
in these shortcomings. Here's how it works: it is a floating palette
(that can float above any application) with buttons, that are linked to
script files actually. When a button is clicked, the corresponding script
file is loaded as script object and executed. And this is why Script
Palette's possibilities are without any limits: anyone can create his own
script files and have Script Palette load them as buttons. In fact you
can also use Script Palette with any other kind of work and create your
appropriate buttons. You can customize the style, the width and the
height of the buttons. A few basic buttons are povided with Script
Palette; you can make use of them or delete them.
Script Palette is freeware. Don't forget to drop me a word

SpriteWorld is a free animation package for programmers that allows you to
easily add sprite-based animation to your program. SpriteWorld was designed
with game programmers in mind, and has many features that are very useful for
making games, such as smooth overlapping of sprites, custom blitters to speed
up the animation, pixel-precise collision detection, the ability to create an
unlimited number of sprites of any size, a fast scrolling engine, and much
more. SpriteWorld comes with complete source code, so you can modify it if
necessary to suit your needs.
Here are just some of the improvements in SpriteWorld 2.2:
- A dramatically improved circular scrolling engine.
- Support for multiple tile layers, as well as a background picture behind
your tiles!
- Assertions were added to SpriteWorld. Now, if you forget to do something
important (such as locking the SpriteWorld before starting the animation),
you will (hopefully) get a polite dialog box reporting the problem instead of
having your program crash.
- New routines for playing asynchronous sounds.
- New routines for quickly drawing and copying lines and framed rectangles in
both scrolling and non-scrolling SpriteWorlds.
- Many new functions, such as SWPauseSpriteLayer, SWDisposeAllSpritesInLayer,
SWCountNumSpritesInLayer, and SWCloneSpriteFromTile.
- Various bug fixes and speed improvements.
- Plus a whole lot more!
Requirements:
System 7.0 or later, 68020 or later Mac, CodeWarrior C or Think/Symantec C
programming environment.

From: Jensen@loop.com
Subject: SpriteWorld 2.2 -> 2.2.1 Update
Use this update package to bring SpriteWorld 2.2 up to version 2.2.1. Only
two minor changes were made since 2.2 was released:
Modified SWCollideSpriteLayer and SWCollideCircularSpriteLayer so it is now
safe to call SWRemoveSpriteFromAnimation (but not SWRemoveSprite) to remove
as many Sprites as you want from any SpriteLayer from within your
collideProc. Note that it is still unsafe to do this from a MoveProc or
FrameProc. For those routines, it is only safe to remove the srcSpriteP that
is passed to that function, or Sprites from Layers other than the one the
srcSpriteP is in. But your collideProc may remove any Sprite(s) it wishes
without any problems.
Fixed a bug where SWCreateRegionFromGWorldAndRect wouldn't work correctly.
This bug wouldn't have affected you unless you called this function directly,
or called BlitPixie8BitFlipSprite on a Sprite with a maskRgn.
The flexibility that was added to SWCollideSpriteLayer was considered
important enough to warrant this update, even though little else has changed
since 2.2.

Subject: Un-SourceSafe Abstract
Un-SourceSafe 1.0
User's Guide
©1998 Michael Amorose
All Rights Reserved Worldwide.
What is it?
Un-SourceSafe is a Macintosh application which removes the info that Microsoft's Visual SourceSafe adds to any files you add to a SourceSafe database. On the Macintosh, Metrowerk's Visual SourceSafe Client usually adds a 'ckid' resource and sets the file's Finder label color to green or red. Un-SourceSafe strips this information.
How do I use it?
How many times have you wanted to open a file which has been added to a SourceSafe database, but not checked out, only to be told that "This file is read-only"? Pretty frustrating, isn't it? Well, just drop a file, group of files, or combination of files and folders onto Un-SourceSafe and it will remove all that nasty info any make any files dropped onto it "normal" again. But beware that if you do this, SourceSafe can no longer determine the file's checkout or revision status!
There are two versions of the app: one is named "Un-SourceSafe G3" - this version should only be run on G3-based Macs. The other version is simply named "Un-SourceSafe". This version is for all other non-G3-based PowerPC Macs.
Limitations
Un-SourceSafe can only modify files nested 100 levels deep. If you have a folder with more than 100 sub folders, you will have to split the drop up into fewer levels, drop the individual folders onto Un-SourceSafe and then move the folders back. In addition, the maximum number of items that can be changed in any given folder in one drop is 1000. Due to memory limitations, you cannot drop disks onto Un-SourceSafe.
How much is it?
Un-SourceSafe is free and you can freely distribute it as long as this document accompanies it and you do not sell it or include it in any product that you charge for.

The VideoToolbox
two hundred C subroutines and several demo and utility programs that I
and others have written to do visual psychophysics with Macintosh
computers. It's fully compatible with 68K and PowerPC Macs and with
Metrowerks CodeWarrior and Symantec C compilers. It's free and may not be
sold without permission. It should be useful to anyone who wants to
present accurately specified visual stimuli or use the Mac for
psychometric experiments. The Video synch page discusses all the ways of
synchronizing programs to video displays and the many pitfalls to avoid.
The TimeVideo application checks out the timing of all video devices in
anticipation of their use in critical real-time applications, e.g. movies
or lookup table animation. Video synch reports all known bugs uncovered
by TimeVideo's testing of 56 video cards and drivers. Low-level routines
control video timing and lookup tables, display real-time movies, and
implement the luminance-control algorithms suggested by Pelli and Zhang
(1991). In particular, CopyWindows (or CopyBitsQuickly) faithfully copies
between on-screen and off-screen windows (or bit/pixmaps), WindowToEPS
saves an image to disk as encapsulated PostScript, for later printing or
incorporation into a document, and SetEntriesQuickly and GDSetEntries
load the screen's color lookup table, all without any of QuickDraw's
color translations. NoisePdfFill.c quickly generates visual noise images
whose pixels are samples from a specified probability density function.
High-level routines help analyze psychophysical experiments (e.g.
maximum-likelihood fitting and graphing of psychometric data). Assign.c
is a runtime C interpreter for C assignment statements, which is useful
for controlling experiments and sharing calibration data. This collection
has been continually updated since 1991. Nearly two hundred colleagues
subscribe to the email distribution (see below), and have indicated that
they are using the software in their labs. Documentation is in the source
files themselves. Many of the routines are Mac-specific, but some very
useful routines, e.g. the luminance-control, statistics,
maximum-likelihood fitting algorithms, and the runtime interpreter are
written in Standard C and will work on any computer. Those wishing to
acknowledge use of the VideoToolbox software might cite:

Subject: VisualProjector v2.0.0
"Visual Projector 2" gives Macintosh users a shareware alternative to
version control systems with an intuitive interface. With Version 2, VCS
databases can be created and manipulated, files can be checked in, out
and shaken about in a intuitive manner. Visual Projector is a user
interface for Apples SourceServer which is freely available from Apples
web site.
This release opens the world of source control via SourceServer to those
outside of the programming fraternity. VisualProjector can be used
easily for source management of web sites, word processor documents,
spreadsheets, applescripts,etc.
VisualProjector can be included on commercial CDs if required but must
be the complete installer with all documentation.

Subject: VOODOO 1.81
VOODOO 1.81 - our popular version control tool VOODOO is available. The new version offers so many great new features that it should be called 2.0. However, since we did already reserve this version number for the next great step (the client server solution) this version is just called 1.8. Here is a list of the most important new features of version 1.8: Support of AppleEvents and AppleScript Smooth integration with Metrowerks CodeWarrior IDE. (compatible with CW IDE 1.7.4 as well as with the upcoming CW IDE 2.0). Essential parts PowerPC native. Fetch and Store operations are backgroundable. Show differences between versions (not only for text files!). Configurable local file locking (Finder flag or 'ckid' resource). Improved handling of local files including the creation of folder structures. Change local path prefix command allows to "move" whole subtrees.

Subject: Uploaded: YAAF1_0a6_patch
Uploaded is a patch to the YAAF1_0a3.hqx which makes numerous
fixes and adds several new features.
YAAF is Yet Another Application Framework, a C++ framework which
allows you to write portable applications that run on the Macintosh,
Microsoft Windows, and X Windows on Unix.
This fixes a number of bugs, adds better Appearance Manager
support to the Macintosh, better Common Controls support on
Microsoft Windows, and adds Drag and Drop. The source files
have also been rewritten to support documentation extraction
using DOC++, not included.
You need to download YAAF 1.0a3 in order to use this patch.
YAAF is released under the LGPL, meaning you may redistribute
the YAAF library freely. You may also freely link YAAF into
your own non-GPL'ed applications.

Subject: YAVsRADtools
YAV's RAD Tools adds a suite of nearly 300 powerful commands and functions
for SuperCard development which are just as easy to use as those provided
by the developers of SuperCard.
RAD stands for Rapid Application Development. And with the YAV's RAD Tools
commands and functions in place, most of the tedious programming tasks are
accounted for. Adopting a "why re-invent the wheel" approach, YAV's RAD
Tools take care of most of the things that every SuperCard project
requires: tasks such as document handling, file I/O, printing, window, and
menu management; string, list, and number manipulation, key-trapping,
dialogs and alerts, button and field control. Built-in help is provided.
YAV's RAD Tools also generates pre-configured project frameworks with all
the standard menus and windows working the way they should in advance.
Alternatively, YAV's RAD Tools offers one-click installation into existing
projects.
The downloadable version is fully functional but will not load in a
standalone unless registered ($59).
