ChordBook's purpose is simple--provide a way to create your own, customized chord listings....in the order and with the voicing YOU choose. For starters, the Chord Library for standard tuning has 23 chord types in each key and has 3 to 6 different voices/fingerings each. Simply select the key of the chord and it's type. You preview it in the Chord Library window and when you find the correct voicing/fingering, draw it in the Diagram Editor. Multiple versions of the Chord Library window can be displayed at once, letting you compare chord voicings, etc. ...But that's not all. When you draw the Library chord in the Diagram Editor, all possible notes of the chord are also plotted in the Neck View. The Neck View provides additional chord lookup functions. This window allows the browsing of chord fingerings over the neck and has a Name-that-Chord function which recognizes more than 60 different chord types in any key, in standard and non-standard tunings. These user-created chord voicings may then be diagramed in the chord editor window. So, if you don't find the voicing/fingering you need, you can experiment until you find the one you do! The Neck View also provides a "Name-that-Chord" functionality. Click in the chord you want (the notes you clicked will be displayed in blue), click the button with the question-mark on it, and a list of possible chord names will be displayed. Select (highlight) one of the names, and you're ready to draw that chord in the Diagram Editor. The Chord Namer function allows you to click in the notes of a chord as you see them printed on the staff. You can then hit the "name it" function (the button with the question mark on it) to get the name of the chord. After the chord name is selected from the list, the chord can be "drawn" to the Neck View--and the chord voicing selected via the browse functions. This program requires System 7.5 or higher and a 68020, 68030, 68040, or a PowerPC equipped Macintosh. A color monitor with at least 400 lines is highly recommended. QuickTime (2.5 or higher recommended) with the QuickTime Musical Instruments extension is required for sound output.

A. Keep your (server) applications running Keep It Up (KIU) can relaunch selected applications if for some reason they stop running (crashes, accidental quits,...) KIU can also restart your Mac on a regular basis. This reduces the chance of anything going wrong in the first place. KIU can also be told the keep one (server) application always in front, which improves the performance of this application. B. Remote Management KIU can be used to remotely manage your Macintosh (server) using a webbrowser. KIU has a tiny "embedded" webserver (running on a port of your choice) that allows you to remotely: * restart/shutdown the Mac * view, kill or restart running applications * launch applications * run Applescripts * get some info about the system (free disk space, uptime, ...) The web interface approach has several advantages over remote management solutions such as "Timbuktu Pro": you can manage the Mac from *any* computer that has a webbrowser installed (Mac, PC, PDA, ...), it's small and fast, doesn't slow down your Mac and is unlikely to cause conflicts with other software. KIU is $22 shareware. Version 2.0.2 fixes several bugs.
