Requirements: 68030/040 or PowerPC; 4.5 MBytes free memory; Mac OS 7.0.1 or later; 640x480 or larger monitor supporting 256 colors; Sound Manager 3.0 or later. What's new in BOOM 1.1.4? Updated author's e-mail and Web site URLs in both software and documentation. Installation The BOOM package is distributed in form of an "Installer" application. To install BOOM just launch the installer and follow the simple instructions. Distribution BOOM is 15$ shareware. You can distribute BOOM freely, provided that you leave the software and the accompanying documentation unchanged. You can include BOOM in CD-ROMs and other software collections only by previous agreement. Thanks and best regards.

The "Send To" menu may be customized by adding aliases to folders, disk and applications, or by adding Applescripts that show up in the menu and work like macro commands. In addition, the "Send To" menu also allows to send files to any running application. If the target of a "send" operation is a special folder, such as the System Folder, Send To CM will honor the Finder's automatic routing by sending extensions to the Extensions folder, controls to the Control Panels folder and so on. Send To CM is the ideal replacement for all those lists of aliases that clutter the user's desktop.
