To use it you need to have the 'Language Toolkit Reader' program version 1.4.4 or higher which is available from Info-Mac mirror sites. The file demonstrates the use of the 'Language Toolkit Writer' authoring program (which is also available from Info-Mac mirror sites). The lessons are written for native speakers of Polish or German but you can easily adapt this material for native speakers of other languages (French, Italian, Japanese etc.). You can also modify and extend this set of lessons. Use Language Toolkit Writer to make all the changes you need.

You can also wrap your terrains around spheres to create PLANET objects. And, *all* objects you create in Callisto can be fully texture-mapped using PICT images. When you're done, save your 2D renderings into a new Photoshop window just by hitting OK. Or, save your 3D models as 3DMF files for later use in other 3D programs. This is a fantastic plug-in for getting some amazing 3D effects in Photoshop. The Save features are *enabled*, but to get output resolution greater than 320x240 pixels you'll need to register for $20. Callisto was written up in the May 4 '98 MacWEEK, p.13. It requires Quickdraw3D 1.5+ and Photoshop 3, 4, or 5. Extensive PDF documentation included.

Ever tried to find the right clipping among a bunch of "Text Clipping 1", "Text Clipping 2", etc? It's not too bad with one clipping, but more than a couple leads to long sessions in the Finder assigning useful names, wasting the time you saved. ClippingNamer helps you manage clippings. Without leaving your current program, you can: * Automatically assign a new name based on the (text) clipping contents. * Automatically create a thumbnail image (icon) for picture clippings. * Popup a dialog that lets you see both ClippingNamer's and the Finder's suggested names, and use either one or a new name you type. You can set any of these modes (or none) as the default, and invoke any of the others with modifier keys (completely customizable). There are several other convenience options as well. HOT TIP: About the only thing that's lacking here is the ability to edit the text/picture in a clipping or the clipboard and that's coming later this year. This is planned as a separate product, but will be free to all ClippingNamer users that register before it's released. ClippingNamer is $10 shareware. See for this and other shareware products.

CopyPaste provides a new and powerful paradigm for working with information. CopyPaste multiplies the clipboard times 100 and makes it quick and easy to archive and retrieve information using familiar Mac OS technologies. Its a totally addictive utility that works invisibly in the background and contains many tools that are useful to every Mac user. 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! * Clip Extender - now gives 100 easy to access clipboards via menu or key command. * CopyPaste Palette - a floating windoid that gives the easiest access to the clipboards and to all CopyPaste features. * Drag and Drop *** NEW *** - allows you to drag anything to and from the CopyPaste Palette. Not only selections from a program, but also text, picture, sound or ClipSet files can be dragged. * Integrated Clip Viewer *** NEW *** shows the clipboard data and allows modifications * Clip Recorder - remembers the last 10 items copied via command c. * Clip Archive - copied data is added to one of 10 text files on disk. * Save Clipboards thru Restarts - allows all 100 Clipboards to be saved thru Shutdown or Restart.

It is a mouse "helper" rather than a replacement like Easy Access. This is useful when: - Adjusting things like slider controls, individual handles in graphics programs, etc, that normally can only be dragged with the mouse. - Adjusting anything precisely and with no annoying "jitter" when the mouse can't be positioned exactly. - Providing mouse button lock without buying new hardware. NudgeMouser 2 is always available: you should never know it's there unless you're using it, because it's only active while dragging. It DOES provide the ability to lock down and/or click the mouse from the keyboard, and to change the amount moved/keypress. NO modifier keys are required; you can use them as usual (to option-drag, for example). NudgeMouser 2 is an update of NudgeMouser. Changes include (optional) key repeat and a new Control Panel that allows you to modify many settings. NudgeMouser 2 is $10 shareware and should be compatible with almost any machine or application: two extra files (included) should allow it to work with at least some versions of System 6. One conflict has been reported, with a shareware product named "Apollo". See for the latest version or contact the author at .

Version 2.0.0 Computers are great tools for teaching elementary school age kids to read and write. TykeWriter is a word processing program designed for the special needs of young children. It is fun to use and easy to learn. Children will be proud seeing their creation in print or hearing TykeWriter read it back to them. As the child's skills develop, the teacher or parent can add new features by changing the level setting for that child. These features include setting text style, font and color. An optional tool supports accents for European languages. TykeWriter can be used without the keyboard, using only the mouse and on-screen alphabet. It includes a user guide. New features since the popular version 1.2.0: * Multi-Document Editing - For advanced students, two documents can be edited at once. * Dynamic Screen Layout - TykeWriter now will shrink to fit into the small screen Macs and lap-tops. For large displays, TykeWriter will spread out and center itself. TykeWriter now looks a little sharper too! * Complete Apple Character Set - The on-screen keypad now includes the "Symbols" key which allows kids to type dozens of useful characters. When combined with the "Accent" key, the on-screen keypad can enter the entire Macintosh (US) character set. * Flexible File Open/Close Modes - TykeWriter can be configured to open and save files (documents) in a verity of ways. * Improved Handling of Fonts - TykeWriter will now find more fonts and displays them in alphabetic order. * Several bugs fixed System requirements: * 68030 or better * System 7.0 or later (uses only 1MB of DRAM while running).

The user can learn to play Blackjack better, by having a hint window displayed if an incorrect play is made, or having the program deal only specific types of hands, like pairs or soft hands, so these can be practiced directly. Card counting can also be practiced. Going beyond the standard casino games, Ultimate Blackjack can show how much money a particular strategy will win (or lose) in Las Vegas, and even draws a histogram showing the distribution of outcomes. The statistical package tracks the payoff on each card combination to understand the best play. You can even experiment with two artificial intelligence routines, the genetic algorithm and learning agents, to see if a computer can learn to play Blackjack. Good Luck! Ultimate Blackjack is shareware with a fee of $10 and includes a 42 page manual. Version 1.3.3 is now compatible with Macintosh G3 computers and OS 8.
