It's great for running stand-alone MacroMedia Director movies as screen savers, executing AppleScript applets during idle time, restarting demos after a person walks away from an in-store Mac, etc. It will also keep applications like FileMaker Pro Server in the foreground so they run faster when the server is unattended. AutoLaunch is capable of locating an application anywhere on a Mac's hard disk, making distribution of Director presentations much easier - you don't have to worry about installation procedures or that users will move the presentation to another folder - it'll always work. A new capability in this release will make web browsers periodically cycle through a list of URLs, letting you display your favorite web pages during idle time! It currently requires some ResEdit manipulation to set the URLs, but future versions will provide a user interface if interest merits it.

The disk cache speeds up disk input and output by keeping the contents of files in RAM, rather than immediately reading or writing them on the disk. The problem with using a large disk cache is that when you save information, the data may end up staying in the cache for quite a while before it really gets written to your hard disk. If your Mac crashes before the cache gets saved, your data is lost. CacheSaver addresses this problem by periodically saving (or "flushing") the disk cache, thus minimizing data loss should your Macintosh crash while you are working. You can set CacheSaver to flush the cache whenever your Mac is idle for more than a specific amount of time, or it can do it automatically at regular intervals. CacheSaver also provides a hotkey so you can flush the disk cache manually. In addition to the standard internet archives, information and updates are available at: [Archived as /info-mac/cfg/cache-saver.hqx; 183K] ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 25 Feb 1997 10:13:44 -0700 From: trekan@hum.auc.dk Subject: [*] CD-Square 1.0 The enclosed Application is called CD-Square.

This release of Crafty for the Mac is by Rolf Exner (r.exner@trl.oz.au) and is based on the 11.13 version of Crafty. It supercedes a port by Lloyd Lim based on Crafty 9.30 which must be used through a text (console) interface. This release includes AppleEvent support and can therefore be used through the graphical interface of programs such as ExaChess Lite. It features faster startup, is less of a CPU hog when other programs are running on the same Mac, and it has some new commands. The release is distributed as a fat binary. Rolf.

Its features include: - Direct support (without conversion) of ChessBase, NICBase, and PGN databases, as well as ExaChess's own database formats. - Search across all databases or just a single database file by player name, event, year, result, ECO code, opening name, position, partial position, material, special game features, or any combination of these. - Shows ECO code and opening name for each game and statistics for all matching games. - Finds and allows easy removal of duplicate games from any database. - Resizable, customizable 2-D color board with smooth animation. - Flexible game parser that handles free-form text input, both algebraic and descriptive, including move and position evaluations, variations and text comments. - Records full tree of moves. Switch to variation or return to main line. - Interfaces to external 'chess engines' via Apple Events. Play against Crafty, GnuChess, or ZZZZZZ using ExaChess's board. Suitable version of ZZZZZZ supplied, others available at Mac and chess archive sites.

We estimate the public online Mac Community Archive is 30,000 compressed files for 10GBytes expanding to 150,000 files. The complete online Archive is 45,000 compressed files for 15GBytes expanding to 250,000 files. The complete Mac Archive is 150,000 files for 30GBytes that should expand to 650,000 files.

Have you ever wanted to "jazz" up a document with the addition of some Japanese characters? Have you ever wanted clear crisp Japanese characters at any font size? Have you ever wanted to use Japanese characters in applications that don't work with the language kit? Well, with the addition of the Japanese Font Package, you can do just that! What is the Japanese Font Package? The Japanese Font Package is a collection of Hiragana, Katakana and some special characters that are unique to Japanese. The use of these characters is made possible through a keyboard layout similar to those used in Japan. Rather than using Romanji, each character can be written with the push of a button! Each key is given a special Japanese character as it's output. The character to the right of the standard letter, is the hiragana or katakana key that will be printed when entered. The Japanese Font Package includes pictures of the entire Japanese keyboard which have been provided in various graphics formats. (PICT, GIF and JPEG) It is recommended that you print out the keyboard layout and use it to determine which Japanese characters you wish to type.

It will work with 64K of memory although 128K is preferred (especially on systems with colors or levels of gray). It is a small application that puts on the screen a round clock to show the (system) time. You can move or resize the clock. Its window can be made globally floating ("omnipotent" mode): once omnipotent, TrueClock? always remain completely visible; it is not hidden by other windows. You can specify colors for the hands, graduations and background. You can disable the seconds and make the hands and graduations thick or thin. There is an optional "digital" display to show date/time/day_of_week/timer. Also, "Copy" (Cmd-C) puts the date/time/timer in the scrap, to be pasted in other applications. TrueClock? needs only 64K of memory to work, although 100K are necessary on color systems for full functionality, and 128K is preferred. jean-francois burnol jb011@dial.oleane.com [Archived as /info-mac/app/time/true-clock-us-19.hqx; 50K] ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 25 Feb 1997 00:43:30 -0500 (EST) From: mike@info-mac.org (Mike O'Bryan) Subject: [*] What's New Assistant v1.54 (68k) From: mono@med.yokohama-cu.ac.jp What's New Assistant (WNA) helps that you make what's new page of your home page.
