Subject: (Q) Control strip

Dear Digest readers,
Not all Macs appear to have come with the Control Strip control panel
installed, and in fact it appears that it first came around in Powerbooks.
But now with the plethora of control strips modules for helping one monitor
one's internet connection it begs the question, what is the oldest
operating system that will support the Control Strip Control Panel?

Being that I am creating a program for my internet provider to help Mac
users online, I was thinking of incorporating a version of the Control
Strip Control Panel on the installer for those Macs that don't have it.
Which version have you found to work, and on which Macs, with which MacOS
version?

Thank you.

Sincerely,
abrody@smart.net

Subject: (Q) GoLive has a bug

Dear Digest readers,
I thought I posted this before, but here it is again.

1. I try to make a change to text in Layout mode of Adobe GoLive 4.0, and
then save the file, close the file, and reopen the file, I end up with a
blank page and no HTML.
2. I try to make a change to text in source mode of Adobe GoLive 4.0, and
then save the file, close the file, and reopen the file, the file is
preserved.

It is obvious from this I can't make any editorial changes in Layout mode.
But that is precisely the mode I want to use for editorial changes.   I
don't want to have to see the source mode unless it is HTML that can't be
coded with GoLive.

In case anyone wants to try this out, visit my
http://www.smart.net/~abrody/news.html page.

I've even tried pasting the source directly into GoLive's source mode, and
the same thing happens.   Is there any way to prevent GoLive from having
trouble with these tables without dropping the tables?

Contacting Adobe is not an option, as they don't offer tollfree tech
support, and their support@adobe.com people never answer their e-mails.   I
have no idea where to find the information on Adobe's home page
http://www.adobe.com.    And I am not about to read a FAQ to find it.
Somebody with prior experience with Adobe GoLive 4.0 please tell me how I
can edit in Layout mode, because editing in source mode is so cumbersome I
might as well use BBEdit.

Thank you.
Sincerely,
abrody@smart.net

Subject: [*] 3D Launcher 1.1 (updated)


3D Launcher is a utility that puts spinning, threedimensional icons in a
control bar on the desktop. It can be used to launch favorite and commonly
used programs. It provides shortcuts to frequently used applications, such
as word processors, image editing and compression software. But first of
all it makes the Mac-desktop more fun!

Apple has been including the Launcher-control panel for some years. It used
to be called 'Starter' under system 7.5. Now 3D Launcher brings that same
functionality with a much better looking interface. Designed by a
professional graphic artist, 3D Launcher icons spin, move and shake to liven
up your
desktop.

3D Launcher needs at least a 120 mhz Macintosh Power PC with Quicktime 2.1
or higher. System 7.5 or higher is the minimum to run this program.

3D Launcher costs only $15 for private use. A corporate license (unlimited
users) is $100. With a serial number, which can be ordered online and is
provided within seconds after payment, 3D Launcher becomes
fully-functional. When run as a demo it only launches some items.

Subject: [*] A Farewell to Kings - New, unique, original solitaire game.


Abstract:

A Farewell to Kings is a completely new concept in solitaire.

The focus of the game is much more on logic and strategy than on
luck-of-the-draw.

System Requirements:
This game has been tested on several machines, ranging from a PowerBook 520
running System 7.1.1 through a beige G3 running System 8.6. I expect it
would run on System 7.0.0.

For more info, see the web page at:

Subject: [*] BookMarks v1.0

BookMarks is a simple book database program, for storing references to
all the books you read. If you have ever got to the point where you can't
remember the name of a book that you read a while back, or maybe you're at
the used book store and you see some good prices on your favorite authors
books, but... hmm...maybe I've already read Tom Clancy's oldest save the
world book. Or did I just see the movie. (aren't they all made into movies?)
Which was it?
     Well this program is designed with you in mind. (actually I wrote it
for myself originally) BookMarks will allow you to catalog all your book
reading, past and present. Entering as much info or as little info as you
want. (You must however at least have a title to the book) You can save the
Title of the book, the Authors name, the Type of book it is, comments of
yours about the book, the date you read it or finished reading it and it
also has a place to enter the books ISBN number, if you like.
     BookMarks also has a simple printing facility, allowing you to print
out your listing of books, for those of you who can't have enough paper to
read.
     BookMarks comes with it''s own installer and will automatically install
the program, the Read Me file as well as a Docs file and the Register
Application, onto your hard disk. Before registering BookMarks, you will be
limited to entering only 10 books. The PPC version of BookMarks requires a
PowerPC computer running version 7.6.1 or greater of Mac OS. A 68k version
is in the works and will be offered at a later date.
     BookMarks is offered as shareware. You may register BookMarks via the
included Register Application from Kagi. A Single User License costs $10 per
user.
     To contact the author, that would be myself, Ken Ferris. I can be
reached at <diamondjimdevelopment@kagi.com>.

A new "Children" relational database that allows users to track attendance
at Sunday School, store school and grade information, birthdays, print
letters to the child or parents, send postcards and relate siblings to one
another and quickly move between related records and databases.
A new password protected "Pastor's" relational database enabling the pastor
to keep confidential records apart from the CMK main file.
An "Attendance-At-A-Glance" layout and report which allows users to view,
mark, and print a continuous report of any number of members.
There is now password protection of all financial layouts and related
databases.
The ability to relate records through a "Family ID#" and view and jump to
related records and files from the Detail View layout.
The ability to print either formal or informal form letters.
Automatic computation of dates based on the first date entered.
Auto-formatting of telephone related fields.
A registration file that allows the user to simply purchase Church

The AppleScript interface allows AppleScripts and other applications to open
dataComet sessions, execute dataComet macros, and monitor session status.

"Command-click" opens URLs in dataComet windows using Internet Config. Files
downloaded using ZMODEM can be launched automatically using Internet Config's
File Mappings.  dataComet sessions can be opened automatically through Telnet
URL  links in Netscape and Explorer browser pages.

dataComet's edit windows send text or commands to a host when the Enter key is
pressed (Command-Return breaks a line and sends it to a host, easing use of
host-based Chat programs).  Keyed commands can be used to search, move the
cursor, and reformat text in edit windows by adding or removing line breaks
and leading blanks or tabs.

Macro commands can be invoked through mouse clicks, configurable on-screen
buttons, menu items, and key-remapping, and also on host open and close to
perform scripted logins and logoffs automatically.  Macros can be recorded as
you interact with the host to ease creation of reliable macros.

dataComet also supports secure configurations for computers used as
public-access terminals; the launch macro can disable commands which are
inappropriate for your particular application.

From: Hudson Barton <hhbv@expand.com>
Subject: [*] DataProtector


You may include this program anywhere.   Keywords for placement in Infomac
archives:  security, encryption, password,  privacy.

Will work on any Mac.  Requires at least OS 7.6 .  The attached file is a
full version of SecurePass.  It is shareware ( $15.).

Highwinds Trading Company (http://www.highwinds.com) is pleased to
introduce SecurePass(tm), a desktop archiving utility for encrypted
passwords and other security keys. SecurePass is shareware ($15. US).
It is available via FTP at ftp://ftp.highwinds.com, and as an email
attachment via autoresponder at
mailto://1001-SecurePass.sit@ar.highwinds.com

The purpose of SecurePass is:

a. To give the networked professional maximum password and passkey
protection (with strong encryption), in a flexible and simple
environment where he memorizes just one password for access to all of
his other passwords and encrypted keys.

b. To allow the user to store these secure keys on the local disk
rather than remove them to a "more secure" place (which is rarely as
secure as one might imagine); also to allow multiple users to store
SecureKeys on a shared computer without compromising their individual
privacy.

c. To provide incentives for the user to use longer and more complex
passwords and security keys (inherently more secure). A random string
generator is included, as well as a tool that transfers a stored
password directly from SecurePass to the entry field where it is
required.

d. To remove the disincentives for the user to change his passwords
regularly. Simplistic and unchanging passwords is perhaps the
greatest security risk to today's networks. SecurePass allows the
user to change them more often without the risk of forgetting them or
having them become disorganized.

Notes about the Cryptography

The algorithms used by SecurePass are "SHA-1" for hashing and
"Blowfish" for encryption. Both are very secure and well-known in the
field of cryptography.

Hi Folks,

I'd like to add telephony features to my 7350/180 (ie. digital answering 
machine) for 2 incoming phone lines. I currently use a GlobalVillage 33.6 
Internet Edition modem. For the most part, I've been very pleased with 
the modem and especially the software.

Does GV offer an option for me? Is there a better hardware and/or 
software solution for my needs?

TIA for all suggestions and replies.

Subject: A call to shareware programmers...Screen Savers and cursors.

Dear Digest readers,
With all the buzz about interfaces going about with Kaleidoscope, and other
means of changing the interface, I am surprised that I have not yet found
shareware that allows a Mac to play Windows screen savers.    With places
like http://www.screensavers.com popping up all over the web, it would be
great not to have to run in emulation to play these screen savers.   Also I
have noticed there are really good animated cursors on NT and 98.   If you
are aware of a shareware that allows one to play these screen savers and
cursors on the Mac end, please e-mail me and the digest.

It shouldn't be too difficult now that Stuffit Expander actually expands
PkZip self excutible archives (.exe files), and ZipIt reads PkZip files for
Mac users to download these files and use them if a program is made to use
them.

Sincerely,
abrody@smart.net

I don't see support for this in Netscape's Applescript dictionary, but
I haven't done much scripting of Netscape. I'd post this question to
