Witchdoctor Pro is a program that allows the user to manipulate files in
several way by means of plug-ins. It has three kind of plug-ins: Watcher
(the plug-in that does everything), Resource Module (a plug-in containing
resources) and Data Module (a plug-in containing data). You may create or
modify plug-ins, quickly and easily using Witchdoctor Pro itself.
When you drag a file onto Witchdoctor Pro then you may select manually the
plug-in that should work, or let Witchdoctor Pro choose the appropriate
one. Moreover, Witchdoctor Pro may create Witchcrafts! Witchcrafts are 68K,
PPC or FAT stand-alone applications containing a Watcher and, optionally, a
Resource Module and a Data Module. As bonus Witchcrafts may contain custom
About boxes.
Watchers and Witchcrafts can perform up to five series of actions and link
together all series. Without wasting words here are some of stuff you may
do by creating Watchers or Witchcrafts for Witchdoctor Pro:
Updater Applications with name and version checking. File's Finder flag
bits manipulation (stationery, locked, invisible and so on). Two ways or
one way file conversion (Type, Creator, Finder Infos) between specified
kind of files, example: you may create a Watcher for just swapping only
between SimpleText files and SimpleText Read Only and vice versa. Simple
Type, Creator and Name changing. Adding Data and Resource from Modules or
remove resource forks. Another example: up until now in order to create
self-extracting compressed archive, you need to open the document with
whatever program goes with it, then save it as a self-extractor. Now
instead, after you've created the appropriate plug-in, you can just drop
the document on Witchdoctor Pro (or on the created Witchcraft), and it will
output a self-extractor, and vice versa. File deletion. File launching.
File launching by means of alternate applications. File duplication. File
trashing. File copying. Alias creation. Internet Config post process.
And more...
In a few words plug-ins creation is limited only by your creativity. By
using a bit of fantasy you may create plug-ins for (little) security
erasing, or to launch a self-extracting archive after its creation, or to
open all dragged files by using one alternate application, or to open any
dragged file by using several alternate applications. And so on...
Witchdoctor Pro is Internet Config and Navigation Manager aware, it's
Appearance Savvy and requires at least System Seven to run. Think
different, use Witchdoctor Pro!
