designed to be used with your system's "Date and Time" control panel and,
when installed, will play at 1/4 Past, 1/2 Past, 1/4 'Til, and Top Of the
Hour or chime. As the hour progresses, each sound is a line of the
melody "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" until you reach the top of the
hour, the melody being "...and a happy New Year!" Full instructions are
included for installation.
Each year, Clixsounds prepares a special set of free sounds just for the
Holidays. This set consists of various StartUp Sounds, ShutDown Sounds,

Subject: [*] AfterDark modules No Interrupt 1.0
these two free AfterDark modules (68k and PPC for AfterDark version 2, can
also be used within DarkSide of the Mac) will disable two possible ways to
gain access to a Macintosh even if password protection within the screen
saver is switched on. One way is to "force quit" the screen saver, the
other is to drop into the debugger and quit the current application, i.e.
the screen saver engine. Within certain restrictions listed in the read-me
file, these two modules prevent this kind of attack on unattended Macintosh
computers.
In the attachment (binhexed StuffIt archive, 8k) you'll find the two
modules (version 1.0) and the description, a SimpleText document:
AD No Interrupt 68k (2k)
AD No Interrupt PPCk (2k)
AD No Interrupt Readme (12k)
Please feel free to include these modules on any CD-ROMs you produce.

Subject: [*] AutoShare 2.0, a freeware list server
AutoShare 2.0 is a major version of
the freeware list server and auto-responder for the Macintosh.
AutoShare is robust, speedy and requires little memory. The 68K and PowerPC
native server applications, tested with Mac OS 8.0 and compatible with EIMS
(Eudora Internet Mail Server, formerly AIMS and MailShare) and SIMS
(Stalker Internet Mail Server), are fully scriptable and may be configured
using the AutoShare Admin, an administration application with balloon help.
Lists in the hundreds and subscribers in the thousands per list are
supported, as are subscription, open, moderated, announcement and private
list types.
Version 2.0 introduces a fully revamped documentation showing just how easy
it is to get going with AutoShare, a major multiple preference sets feature
coming in handy with mail server multi-domains, a powerful filter process
extender, user interface refinements for both the server and the Admin,
up-to-date full scriptability plus many minor improvements and bug fixes.
AutoShare comes complete with script samples and documentation covering
features such as list-specific configuration and logs, fully automated web
archives, remote administration by e-mail, subscriber and administrator web
forms, advanced mail-back confirmations, automated bounce and unsubscribe
module, launching of external applications, keep applications up feature,
flexible process extenders, MIME configuration of outgoing mail messages,
tip of the day lists, simultaneous text and HTML archives, subscriber
address protection, poll feature for voting, subject prefixes in list
contributions, headers and footers in list contributions and digests,
rotating banners and much more.

African Stone game
The Awale is one of the most ancient games still played.
The Masai say that the Awale was invented by Sindillo, the son of the
first man, Maitoumbe, and was originally called geshe. The rules of
the game are simple, but the strategies needed to win are quite
challenging. With Awale, you'll play against the computer or another
player to one of the 13 pre-defined rules from all over the world
(from India to Barbados).
The object of the game is to capture more stones than your opponent.
To help you learn and play the game, a dialog box appears with
comments on the actions performed. You can: define your own rules,
undo the last move, see the history list of all played holes in the
game (allowing you to restart a game at any point to find another
strategy), and more. Awale also features: excellent graphics and sound
effects, scoring, online help, game save, a powerful A.I. algorithm,
user-definable Grand Master level, and an English and French version.
African-style musics and sound effects are also included.
A very realistic game, with solid wood and clattering stones.
New in this version :
You can challenge an opponent on the Internet, or view 'live' the game
played by other players on the Internet, send and receive messages.

Subject: [*] bol-processor-274-appl
BOL PROCESSOR BP2 - November 1997 release (2.7.4)
BP2 is a MacOS software for music design working in MIDI, QuickTime MIDI
and Csound environments. New versions are made available from Info-Mac
mirror sites (see for instance
).
The package is made of three files in BinHex 4 format:
bol-processor-274-appl.hqx contains the program (both 68K and ppc versions)
bol-processor-273-doc.hqx contains the documentation
bol-processor-273-data.hqx contains examples
Note that the documentation and examples of version 2.7.3 (uploaded in
October 1997) have not yet been modified.
BinHex files yield self-extracting archives "sea". (Use Compact Pro,
StuffIt or BinHex for converting from BinHex). No software is required
to extract "sea" files. Double-clicking their icons (under MacOS)
automatically creates folders and files.
"bol-processor-273-doc.hqx" contains a manual "BP2 doc - MS Word" in
Microsoft Word (version 5). It is recommended to print at least the
"QuickStart" part of it.
When BP2 software, documentation and examples get upgraded, similar
BinHex files will be found on the site, bearing numbers 275... etc. It
is a good idea to check Info-Mac from time to time and download
upgrades. Send me a mail (bel@kagi.com) even if you don't wish to
register so that your address is put on a mailing list.
BP2 runs under Opcode OMS (Open Music System) which may be dowloaded
from . Version 2.0 minimum is
required. Version 2.3.2 or greater is recommended with MacOS 8.0.
BP2 also works with Csound, a public-domain software environment for the
design and transformation of digitized sounds. You may download Csound
from . The Csound
front page is .
A set of the most recent musical examples may be ordered to
bel@kagi.com. Please post and comment your own experiments :-)
A 50$ shareware with concession rates for unemployed or citizens of
developing countries, BP2 may be freely distributed provided that no
alteration has been made to the software, examples and documents. To
register, first read instructions in the "Registration" document, then
double-click the "Register" utility in the "bol-processor-274-appl"
folder.

Subject: [*] Dialog_Task_Timer_10 (closes sticky dialogs, executes timely ta
DT Timer is a small utility that allows you to automatically open
documents, launch or quit applications at
specified moments. It can also close automatically dialog boxes that may
remain on your screen when it is
not appropriated. The two features may be used together or independantly.
For example, you might want
to automatically close dialog boxes to make sure an application lauched at
10:00 PM will have enough
processing time to do its task overnight. Dialog boxes, and especially
modal dialogs, take control of your
computer leaving very few processing time to other tasks. Calculations,
disk and network accesses are
examples of tasks affected by unwanted dialog boxes. If you need the full
power and responsiveness of
your computer night and day and you have dialog boxes popping now and then,
the dialog auto-close
feature of DT Timer is for you ! On the other hand, if you want to execute
periodic tasks without using all
your memory and/or your processor time, you need the application manager of
DT Timer.
A settings application allows the customization of the behaviour of DT
Timer. You can specify the moment
to launch or quit a choosen application, the period of the day when dialog
auto-close is active, set a delay
before closing a "sticky" dialog box and decide whether dialogs should be
closed by simulating an hit to the
default or the cancel button. The default button is usually the one with
the thick rounded black rectangle
around it.

INTRODUCTION
System Requirements: System 6 or 7, any Mac, 1.6 megs free RAM, =B11 Meg
disk space
Digital Diary=81 allows you can keep track of many on-going and complex
projects, with fingertip access to the current status of each one.
Projects can be arranged in up to 50 main categories. Or if you prefer,
you can use the category level for your projects, and use the next level
down for detailed project subcategories. You can even arrange your
projects over several separate copies of Digital Diary to add yet another
level to your project hierarchy.
Digital Diary=81 employs a double entry method, which records all notes i=
n
both a Day File as well as a Project File. A third location, the 'To Do
List', is reserved for certain types of notes that require future follow
up, such as appointments and project deadlines. Digital Diary=81 ships with
note types arranged in two groups. The first group is set to be recorded in
the To Do List as well as the Project File and Day File. Note types can be
changed, added, or removed at any time. An on-screen reminder appears when
the program is opened on or after the date specified for a future event
listed in the 'To Do List'. Each project can also be assigned a status from
a user-definable menu.
A wide variety of reports can be generated, with information arranged by
project name, status, or note type. Varying levels of password protection
are available to control access to the program.

Subject: [*] Enigma 2.7
I am pleased to announce the release of Enigma 2.7, an upgrade to my
privacy protecting encryption application which runs in native mode on
Power Macintoshs.
Version 2.7 fixes a crashing drag and drop bug that only occurs with Mac
OS 8. Contact information for Next Wave Software, Inc. has also been
updated.
You should upgrade if you are using Macintosh OS 8 or considering
registering so you have the latest contact information.
Enigma remains fully compatible with previous releases.
Enigma is an application which can provide strong protection for your
sensitive documents and applications. By downloading this application
you can encrypt files using a limited version of the Government Standard
DES algorithm. For only $20 this can be upgraded to the full DES
standard (US and Canada only).
If you would prefer your neighbors not see your accounting data, your
co-workers not see your performance appraisal, or your competitor see
your trade secrets then Enigma is an application you will find very
valuable.
Enigma supports vaults which are like very securely locked file
cabinets. Multiple files are stored in them. Files can be added,
deleted, renamed, and extracted at any time. You can create folders
inside the vault to organize your files better. Entire folders can be
extracted or added in one operation. Security is enhanced because
filenames and lengths are protected by encryption in addition to the
contents. No other free or shareware encryption program offers the
flexibility of Enigma vaults.
You can also create self extracting vaults to send to friends and
associates who do not have the Enigma application. Self extracting
vaults are stand alone applications that cannot be opened without the
proper key.
Enigma requires system 7.0 or later along with about three megabyte of
memory and 400K of disk space. Documentation enclosed specifies
ordering information for a system 6 or earlier compatible version, but
the vault features are unavailable.

Subject: [*] ExtractIt! for System 2.0 - The simple, powerful diagnostic
ExtractIt! for System 2.0 is a very small and versatile application which will
return a truckload of information on your computer. It takes up a mere 250K
of disk space and can run on virtually every computer system, but it returns
enough information on your computer to be a great assistance in any situation.
All of this information is formatted in 32 easy-to-read, tabulated screens
sorted into 4 menus, making it easy to quickly hone down the problem. All
170+ different categories of data are outlined in such a way that it doesn't
confuse even the most novice of Mac users. There's a list of 100's of bugs
and if they've been fixed, a custom Gestalt selector viewer with a visual
interface, and even a built-in on-site mini-manual!
Best of all, this program requires virtually nothing to run:
- 68K or Power Macintosh, any speed
- 9" monitor
- 250K of disk space, 500K of RAM
- ATM-compliant ITC Times & Helvetica fonts (included)
...and that's it! All this for only $8, too! ExtractIt! for System is sure
to be a valuable addition to any Mac user's cornucopia of software programs.
Download it already!

FontBook 3.0 (e), 68K + PPC
FontBook is a nice, tiny MacOS font utility. FontBook helps you to keep
track of your installed fonts, especially symbol or dingbats fonts.
FontBook let's you print reference cards for your most-used fonts. On these
reference cards you can find out all the different key combinations. It
contains a table with entries for all characters: e.g. what key is printed
when you press shift-alt-F or shift-5, etc. Or do you know the key code of
the big dot in the Helvetica font?
And, since version 3.0, there are many other nice example pages, that help
you to find the right font in the right time.
Some other features of FontBook:
- MultiPrint: Print all installed fonts with a few mouse clicks
- 12 example layout pages
- Save or Copy the entire page
- Choose any font from the system or from a disk (without installing it!)
- and many, many more...
BTW: FontBook is also available in German!

Subject: [*] Food Nutrition Knowledge Matrix 1.0
* HyperBible of Healthy and Unhealthy Foods!
* There are thousands of electronic resources, books and research
papers on foods and nutrients. Their effectiveness is limited,
however, because of repetitive linear presentation with redundancy and
duplication, causing information overload in your brain.
* Food Nutrition Knowledge Matrix organises hundreds of foods and
nutrients in a simple and consistent manner. It focuses on only major
helpful and harmful food nutrients, such as minerals, vitamins, lipids
and other important compounds, rather than on calories. The properties
of the foods are based solely on their nutrients, which are accessible
with a click of a button in a unique hypertext Knowledge Matrix.
* Food Nutrition Knowledge Matrix is a stand-alone application for
the Apple Macintosh computer, but it will be converted to much more
compact and cross-platform QuickTime Interactive (QTi) format when
it becomes available. It will be on-line playable directly from the
web browser and downloadable to your computer.

Classic Hypnoptic (achievable by Hot Key): the savescreen responsible for,
always living, HypnOpticMania.
Standard Hypnoptic: based on Classic version with some additional graphic
element. It may, casually, use RGB Colors and patterns, in addition to
Classic QuickDraw.
OloPpat (achievable by Hot Key): this version uses patterns for creating a
simple, but nice, savescreen.
Moreover any version can play sounds, if you want.
HypnOptic requires at least System 7 to run.

Subject: [*] Reanimator 2.0
Reanimator 2.0.
What's Reanimator?
Reanimator is a utility for automatically restarting all applications and
background-only processes killed by another process.
It can also be used to quit all running processes and restart them later.
A process is a program running on your computer. When you launch an
application, you start a new process. Desk accessories are also processes,
while control panels are treated as extensions of the Finder process (see
the "Technical details" section below for further info). There are also
processes that don't show up when running: they are called background-only
processes. Many shareware and freeware extensions run as background-only
processes. Reanimator itself, works that way.
I'm used to run a number of applications and extensions in the background
(D=E9cor, MyEyes, DragThing, Eudora and other occasional utilities) and I wa=
s
tired of relaunching each one of them after running an installer,
rebuilding the desktop using a dedicated utility or running a game
instructed to quit all other processes, including the Finder.
Reanimator accomplishes this task in a single, quick operation.
What's new in 2.O?
General:
- This is a major update to Reanimator. It sports brand new
functionalities, like the ability of quitting all active processes for a
perfect later reanimation, and many enhancements to both interface and
code. Please refer to the "Using Reanimator" and "Configuring Reanimator"
sections in the Read Me file for a complete description of all the new
options.
Application specific:
- Fixed a subtle bug that was a potential cause of crashes when trying
to resolve aliases pointing to moved (not deleted) items.
- Now the Reanimator application acts like a "real" application (in
fact, an application control), with the three standard menus (Apple, File
and Edit) and the ability to switch to other applications.
- Added Balloon Help support to the main window, dialogs and menus.
- Added support for Internet Config. Clicking on the URLs and e-mail
addresses in the about dialog automatically launches your Web browser or
e-mail application (requires IC 1.1 or later).
- In the main window, you can select from a scrolling list the
processes to be reanimated or terminated. You can start a reanimation or a
termination operation by clicking on the buttons named respectively
"Reanimate=8A" and "Terminate=8A" and control all other application's
functionalities using the relative buttons or menu commands.
- Reanimator is now 100% Mac OS 8 Appearance Manager and Kaleidoscope sa=
vvy.
- Increased the memory partition to 256k.
Daemon specific:
- The daemon has been renamed so that it is launched before other
processes at startup (I put an invisible character at the beginning of the
file name). Also, the application now relaunches the daemon before
reanimating other processes, not after. All this to avoid those situations
in which the daemon was caught updating the aliases in the middle of a
sequence of 'quit' events launched by an application to all other open
processes, resulting in only partial reanimations.
- Fixed possible heap corruption when running under Mac OS 7.5.3 or
older (in fact, there was a bug in the Process Manager that was fixed in
Mac OS 7.5.5).
System Requirements
68020/030/040 or PowerPC;
64 KBytes free memory for the extension;
Mac OS 7.0 or later.
Distribution
Reanimator is 8$ shareware.
You can distribute Reanimator freely, provided that you leave the software
and the accompanying documentation unchanged. You can include Reanimator in
CD-ROMs and other software collections only by previous agreement.

Subject: [*] RoboWar 4.4
It's difficult to describe RoboWar, the game created by David Harris nearly
a decade ago. To some, it's merely an engrossing hobby. To others, it's
no less than a full-fledged obsession. And there is a small group of core
followers (myself included,) who consider RoboWar to be the greatest
computer game ever created.
The name of the game is to make autonomous robots. Using RoboTalk, the
game's programming language, you are able to program your robots to behave
in any way you choose. You can make them dance. You can make them sing.
But generally, people choose to make their robots KILL OTHERS.
Every few months, an International RoboWar Tournament is held. Players
from all over the world submit their creations to compete in this highly
anticipated event. In the Tournament, robots are unleashed in the arena,
where they promptly proceed to blow each other to bits. May the deadliest
robot win... ;)
Warning: programming robots is an addictive behavior! Those with a family
history of addiction, please take heed! Try RoboWar at your own risk!
Those willing to take the plunge may wish to join the RoboWar Mailing List.
To do so, send an email message to "majordomo@lists.stanford.edu", and
type in the messge body the words "subscribe robowar" (omit the quotes).
The list sometimes recieves up to 25 postings a day, so be forewarned. If
you do subscribe, you will have at your disposal the assistance and
encouragement of many enthusiastic RoboWarriors, so new players are highly
encouraged to sign on.
Also, be sure to visit RoboWar HindQuarters on the web, at
. There, you'll find everything
you need to know to start playing.
One more reason to try RoboWar: as of version 4.4, it's now freeware!
Paying a registration fee is no longer necessary (you lucky dogs!) So go
ahead, for pete's sake, and give it a shot! We'd sure like to see some
more new participants in the Fifteenth International RoboWar Tournament,
which goes down a few months from now. Hope to kill you--uh, I mean, *see*
you there. :)
System requirements: any color mac.

You thought this will never happen? No. Here they are, more great maps for
your Warcraft II game. Some are easy, some are hard...but you will have to
play them to know. This time, you will feel why the hell is so
cold...burning maps!!!
General Information
This file contains 6 maps I create for Warcraft II=A9, Mac version (is there
something else?). To play them, you need the "Warcraft II" game, created by
Blizzard Entertainment=A9. System requirements are the ones the game needs.
These maps are freeware, so you can use and abuse them all you want, you
can give them to your friends, put them on any commercially available
CD-ROM, or you can trash them. But, if you like some of them, send me an
email telling me so. I will be glad to receive it.
And I will be glad, too, if you do something good for our Apple or Mac
(evangelize a Wintel user, buy another Mac, pay for the shareware, etc.).
These Maps were checked with Disinfectant 1.7.

Prior to MacOS 8, you could set your Finder prefs globally, via the Views
control panel. Now, you need to do this for _each_ window separately, and
this can be very tedious.
The Squeegee Collection is a set of 15 AppleScript droplets that automate
this task. With the collection, you can set your windows to be viewed by
Icon, Small Icon, or List, and sorted by Name, Modification Date, Size,
Kind, or now with this version, Label.
To use, just drag a folder or disk onto one of the droplets. It will
recursively set all folders within the folder or disk you select to the
same setting. It will also set the window to the upper left of the

Subject: [*] Ultimate Label Printer Pro 5.0
The Ultimate Label Printer Pro prints labels for CD, Zip, audio
cassette, Jaz, SyJet, EZ Flyer, DAT, MO, and other media cases on plain
paper. Simply cut out the labels and fold them into your cases. Because
the Ultimate Label Printer Pro uses a Plug-In technology, support for
new media can easily be added to match your exact needs. Since there is
NO LIMIT to the number of Plug-Ins you can use, registering once allows
you to take advantage of all of the new Plug-Ins that we are constantly
developing.
The Ultimate Label Printer Pro 5.0 is PowerPC Accelerated, uses Drag and
Drop for text and picture insertion, and now supports fully styled
rotated text, with multiple sizes, fonts, attributes, and colors, as
well as new background color options. High resolution graphics can also
be added to the labels, and can be scaled and repositioned. This update
completely replaces the older Label Printer Pro Series for Mac OS.

Subject: [*] Utopia PS1 and TrueType v 2.1
This is version 2.1 of a TrueType and PS Type 1 rendering of the
Utopia family fonts donated by Adobe to the X Windows project. It
should replace all previous versions in the archive. If you think
there are copyright concerns, I will appreciate you let me know
ASAP.
The file should be posted with the following text:
This is version 2.1 TrueType and PS Type 1 rendering of the Utopia
family fonts donated by Adobe Inc. in 1989 to the X Windows
Project, then hosted at MIT. As with any famous last words, I have
discovered two big goof ups in the previous version -- 2.0 -- that
affected the PS1 fonts and printing while using the screen fonts.
These bugs are fixed and this is really the final version, I hope.
According to the license they can be modified and redistributed as
long as the copyright information is included with the fonts.
Please find included a copy of the original license in the archive.
THESE FONTS SHOULD ALWAYS BE DISTRIBUTED WITH ITS README FILE AND
COMPANION LICENSE.
THESE FONTS ARE NOT IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN. PLEASE READ THE
ACCOMPANYING LICENSE FOR DETAILS. These truetype renditions for the
Macintosh are provided as a service to the Internet community.
This new version corrects some problems with font box definitions,
kerning tables, adds a full set of *fixed* bitmap fonts and
includes postscript type 1 versions. Please see the included README
file for further details.
