As a matter of fact, this clock has the tendency to deviate from the correct time every day, and can accumulate to minutes or dozens of minutes after one year, if not corrected. The AutoClock application allows you to: * Set the clock by calling a time server, if you have a modem, * Set the clock manually from an accurate source (for example a voice time server (303-499-7111) or the radio), * Display a logbook of every clock change on your Macintosh, whether it was done with AutoClock, or with another application (the General or Data & Time control panels, or the Clock desk accessory for example), * Compute the mean clock deviation of the Macintosh clock for a 24-hour period, using data recorded in the logbook, and * Display the date and time in almost any country of the world. The system extension AutoClock Extension can: *Periodically open the AutoClock application according to your schedule, to perform an automatic clock adjustment by calling the time server, without any user intervention, * Keep the Macintosh clock continually correct, by adjusting it using the computed mean clock deviation, * Automatically adjust the clock for Daylight Saving Time, and * Detect any clock changes done by any other programs, and record them in the application's logbook.

The "Caps Lock Beep" option provides an unobtrusive warning signal whenever the caps lock key has been activated, alerting users to the change. CapsBeep offers users a choice of between one and three beeps as the warning - and plans are already under way to offer custom sound option alternatives to the standard system beep. The "Shift Reverse" option allows the user to temporarily 'reverse' the caps lock key by pressing the shift key to get lowercase characters. System Requirements * 68020 or better (including PowerPC) * System 7 or Mac OS 8 (has not been tested with System 6) CapsBeep is known to work with US keyboards, but is untested with others.

Do any of these scenarios sound familiar? * You're trying to phone your girl/boyfriend, but the line's always busy because he/she is always using the phone or online? * You're trying to get through to some company's technical support phone number, but there's no answer because all their lines are in use? * You finally get through on a call, but you're put on hold, and you end up looking like Quasimodo because you spend a geological era holding the receiver up to your ear with your shoulder while you try to get some work done at the keyboard, listening endlessly to "Your call is important to us..."? "Keep Trying!" is the solution. Keep Trying! (KT) is a utility for dialing phone numbers through your modem. This in itself is not unique; some Address Book programs and other utilities include such a feature. The distinguishing features of KT, however, are the ways in which it removes the frustration of "getting through" to a hard-to-reach party. If the number you're trying to call is busy, or there is no answer, KT will automatically retry the number repeatedly, at intervals you control. You can set how many attempts to make, whether to retry after a busy signal or no-answer or both, and different wait intervals for a busy signal and a no-answer. You don't even need to pick up the phone until your call goes through successfully. You just leave KT running in the background while you get on with your life; the program will automatically (you guessed it) "keep trying!". Additionally, KT has a unique "listen in" option that could literally save your neck the next time you're put on hold for an indeterminate period. By activating this feature when you're asked to "please stay on the line...", you can hang up the phone's receiver and listen in on the line through your modem's speaker. You can then go about your business in comfort until you hear a (non-recorded) person come on the line. Keep Trying! is a must-have, not only for people who make a lot of phone calls, but for anyone who has ever suffered the frustration of making a "simple telephone call". Keep Trying is a joint production of programmer Karl Bunker and sound engineer Larry Lloyd. Minimum requirements: A Mac with a 68020 processor or better, System 7.1 or later, a modem and a phone on the same line as the modem. This is version 1.0.3 of Keep Trying! This version adds support for more types of internal PowerBook modems, and can be used on systems with black & white monitors. Shareware; $10.00.

NetFinder combines the ease of use of the Macintosh interface with a powerful FTP engine. The result is a unique program that makes it a breeze to get and store files on internet FTP sites. If you can use a Mac, you can use this program! Here are some of the features of NetFinder: very easy to use Finder-like interface, including full Drag and Drop support. download, upload, delete, rename and move files and folders as easily as you would in the Finder. supports moving files to your Mac's disk and moving files around on a FTP site - very handy for Webmasters and Webmistresses! fully threaded operation for directory listings and file/folder transfers. The benefits of this approach are that you wait less and can do more at the same time - a valuable time-saving feature! on-the-fly encoding and decoding of Binhex and MacBinary files - the most popular file formats for storing Mac files on internet FTP sites. Since files are decoded on-the-fly, you don't require as much hard disk space. For example, an 8Mb binhex-encoded file will only require 6Mb of hard disk space. the ability to save and open bookmarks of your favourite FTP sites. Create bookmarks simply by dragging and dropping files or folder. Double click bookmarks to quickly connect to your favourite sites. directory listings are cached so you can navigate quickly through often visited sites. And if the listing is stale, you can easily get a fresh listing. can work with Internet Explorer or Netscape Internet Config savvy (NetFinder can function without IC but it works much better if IC is installed) supports a wide variety of FTP servers. Works with all popular FTP server software like wu-ftp, NetPresenz and Windows NT FTP server. customisable with a set of useful preferences and last but not least, you can continue downloading a file that has been partially downloaded instead of having to download the entire file again. This works even if you quit NetFinder or your Mac crashes and you have to restart! We call this "Partial File support".

StuffCM is a contextual menu plugin that works with Aladdin Systems' StuffIt Engine. It can stuff, unstuff, convert, BinHex, segment and join files directly in the Finder through the contextual menu commands. To install StuffCM, drag it and StuffCM Control to your System Folder (they will be routed to their respective folders inside the System Folder) and restart your computer. Check out MacUpdate's review of StuffCM (http://www.macupdate.com/reviews/adam/stuffcm.html): "StuffCM is such a sublime addition to the Mac OS, it's a wonder that it's not built in." 1.2 - Added the segmenting stuff. I downloaded the latest StuffIt Engine SDK so I don't get link errors anymore. - Selecting multiple files that result from an operation now works. I had to tell the Finder to "select" them, not "reveal" them. - There's a French version! Thanks to Benjamin Vincent for the translation.
