CopyPaste is the shareware utility that was awarded a 5 mouse rating by MacUser and was their shareware utility of the year 1996. CopyPaste also appeared in the June Wired and been featured in MacWeek, TidBits and many other magazines. CopyPaste magnifies the clipboard in many different ways and has been very popular with web developers, editors, writers, dtp professionals and everyone who uses the clipboard. CopyPaste can be downloaded free at: http://www.scriptsoftware.com Essential to magnifying the power of your Mac! CopyPaste has these features: * Clip Extender - gives 10 easy to access clipboards via menu or key command. * Clip Recorder - remembers the last 10 items copied via command c. * Clip Archive - copied data is appended to one of 10 text files on disk. * Save Clipboards thru Restarts - allows all 10 Clipboards to be saved thru Shutdown or Restart. * Clip Sets - Sets of 10 clipboards can be loaded and saved to disk. Various Clip Sets can be created for different tasks. Clip Sets can also be sent to other CopyPaste users for them to load and use. * CopyPaste Palette - a floating windoid that allows you to view/use 10 clipboards in Clip Extender and in Clip Recorder. * CopyPaste Utilities - there are text utilities, picture utilities and date and time utilities that work on the clipboard. CopyPaste eliminates tedious repetitive work and increases your ability to get the job done. CopyPaste 3.3.3 adds some handy internet features that web meisters and others will appreciate. The list of new features is below. Changes in version 3.3.3 * Two new internet tools called "EddressExtractor" and "URL_Extractor" are found in the Special menu (in future releases we will have an internet tools menu). You can copy any text to the clipboard and this tool extracts all e-mail addresses or all WWW-addresses from the text and leaves only the eddresses or URLs on the clipboard separated by returns. * Another useful tool is called ParagraphMaker. Unwrap text in any program. * Two more internet tools are introduced called "e-mail Comment" and "e-mail UnComment". They insert or remove the ">" sign which is widely used to comment the original text in an e-mail reply. * The preferences option "Get all Clicks on Palette" has been perfected so that it works all the time and does not need an option to turn it off. * Many tools were improved. * The Clip Recorder now uses less memory. * A user request is a new preference to show/hide the Palette at startup. * Introduces five new icons on the palette, each of them has one utility popup menu. * If the palette is zoomed to small size, then it also always moves to the bottom right of the screen and out of the way. * A shortcut command + c + z was added to zoom the Palette by keyboard. * On some machines with some programs (Excel, Claris Works and a few others) occasional freezes happened when the option "Get all Clicks on Palette" was turned on. This is now fixed. * A check for presence of Color Quickdraw is added which allows CopyPaste to run on old 68000 machines. * If you type "H" in the Application Switcher, all programs will be hidden in the Finder except the selected one. * The "Sort Selection" text tool had a problem if the last character was not a "return". Now if the selection has no return at the end, this tool will automatically add one and the tool should work. Although it is written in plain "C", sorting of even a small amount of text could take a few minutes. * Two Text Tools are changed a little, i.e. Comment and UnComment. The new CodeWarrior Compiler now regognizes the "//" which is used for "C" comments also for Pascal. The comment style was chaned to "//" at the beginning of every new line. The tools are now called Code Comment and Code Uncomment and work for C and Pascal. * And a myriad of minor changes.

When you drag a window's title bar and Solid Dragging is active, the whole window image is moved instead of a dull-looking window outline. If the Update Windows option is also active, all windows are updated on the fly without waiting for you to release the mouse. Not as fast as the BeOS, but definitely better than the standard MacOS behavior! DragAnyWindow also allows you to easily move any kind of window, including dialogs, alerts, standard "Open" and "Save" dialogs, game windows and other non-movable windows. It lets you bring back to the desktop any window that has gone out of sight, or center the front window on the main screen with a single keystroke. These options are very useful for old applications designed for the 9" screen (which often use fixed windows) and for moving modal dialogs and windows behind them. New in version 4.1: - A major update! Windows can now be updated while you drag them, without waiting for the mouse button to be released. - Solid dragging also works with programs that implement floating palettes. - The Control Panel interface looks much better.

It can quickly scan whole disks or folders and grab all the icons they contain, including those you won't ever see in the Finder and all icon archives created by other icon utilities. It can easily export them in most graphics formats, including the ones you need for your web pages. Drag & Drop is fully supported, so you can create or stick custom icons by simply dragging them around. All icons are compressed on the fly to save memory and disk space, and archives can contain a very large number of icons (unlike all other icon utilities which are limited to a few hundreds). Advanced features include removing duplicate icons, sorting them by shape, filtering them by size or color depth, and viewing them in many different ways. The Archiver includes native PowerPC code and its icon handling routines are highly optimized for maximum speed. Even if you hate custom icons, you'll be fascinated by the number of icons that come out of a typical shareware CD-ROM like the ones that are bundled with many Mac magazines. No matter what you use your Mac for, this is guaranteed to give you countless hours of fun and entertainment as well as a much nicer desktop.

MacCurveFit is a scientific least squares curve fitting program. Data sets can be entered into a spreadsheet window or imported from programs like Excel or extracted from text files. Arbitrary equations may then be fitted to the data and the fits displayed graphically. The equations can be defined by typing them as text and so the program is very flexible. There is also a choice of mathematical algorithms that can be used for curve fitting. The program is shareware.

One of the early wonders of the Mac was its revolutionary ability to do copy and paste across various applications. Unlike other areas in the Mac's system software that have changed and progressed over the years, copying and pasting has not evolved. How many times have you found yourself going back and forth copying in one application and pasting in a different application, wishing to yourself that you could copy 5-10 items at a time, then go to another application and paste each of these items. Now you can with a vengeance! CopyPaste magnifies the clipboard in different ways. We call these: ・ Clip Extender - gives 10 easy to access clipboards via menu or key command. ・ Clip Recorder - remembers the last 10 items copied via command c. ・ Clip Archive - copied data is appended to one of 10 text files on disk. ・ Save Clipboards thru Restarts - allows all 10 clipboards to be saved thru shutdown or restart. ・ Clip Sets - Sets of 10 clipboards can be loaded and saved to disk. Various Clip Sets can be created for different tasks. Clip Sets can also be sent to other CopyPaste users for them to load and use. ・ Tag and Drop - selected text can be copied to a different location with a single mouseclick. ・ CopyPaste Palette - a floating window that allows you to view/use the 10 clipboards in Clip Extender and in Clip Recorder. ・ CopyPaste Utilities - there are internet, text , picture and date and CopyPaste eliminates tedious repetitive work and increases your ability to get the job done. The Foating Palette and the Clipboard Viewer require at least System 7.1! CopyPaste is the winner of the MacUser Shareware Utility of 1996 and America Online's Macintosh Utilities Shareware Award for 1996.

The sound must be in a Finder sound file called "Startup Loop" inside the Extensions folder (or in the System folder if you're running System 6). You can also store more than one sound file in a folder named "Startup Loops" inside the Extensions folder, and Startup Player will pick a random one at each startup.

All rights reserved. Synth MooVier is a freeware application capable of producing 3-D QuickTime animation. Its notable features are: - integrated 3-D modeler; - high-quality rendering (Phong shading); - complete control over material properties; - multiple, colored light sources (point, directional or spot); - export of 3-D models in VRML format (1.0 compliant); - control of movie quality (fps) and frame dimensions; - small RAM and disk footprint. In order to produce an animation, you have to model the actors in the scene (by assembling solid primitives) and to define their behaviors over time, which means you can, in specified temporal interval, modify all their attributes, as position, dimensions, colors, rendering type; the light sources can be smoothly turned on or off; and the special actors (like the view camera) can be managed in the same way. Hardware/Software requirements Macintosh model with 68020 processor or better (FPU not required); 8-bit/256 colors video card (16-bit/thousands recommended); 768 kb of free RAM (1Mb recommended); MacOS 7.x or better; QuickTime 1.5 or better.
