Shareware Junkies declared it Mac Product of the year for 1997. CopyPaste also appeared in the June 97 Wired and has been featured in MacWeek, TidBits, MacAddict and many other magazines. CopyPaste magnifies the clipboard in many different ways and has been declared indespensible by web developers, editors, writers, dtp professionals and everyone who uses the clipboard. CopyPaste is available online and can be downloaded free at: http://www.scriptsoftware.com it is also on the major shareware archives and AOL. 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 do not only this but view all 100 clipboards, save useful text and pictures thru restarts and much much more. **MacOS 8.5 compatible! **Many advanced features but easy for beginners! **Full Drag & Drop compatibility! **Use up to 100 independent clipboards by menu or simple key commands! **View and access all the clipboard using the CopyPaste Palette! **Append text to 1 of 10 files on disk at any time! **Process text, picture and net data on the Clipboards in many ways! **Use a command key to switch and/or view all applications! **Works great with iType, iSearch, iCount and iView Multimedia! **New pop-up palette function and more! **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 100 Clipboards to be saved thru Shutdown or Restart.

I didn't like it, since I was continually aiming for the scroll-bar and accidentally moving the window instead. So I fixed it by writing FixWindowDrag. With this extension installed, you can only drag windows by the title bar, just the way it's supposed to work. If you really need to drag using the borders, you can hold down the option-key and it works (as long as you don't miss and hide the application). Written (in entirety) the waking period of 18. June, 1998 at MacHack 13. Finally cleaned up and released to the general public. This is the Japanese version.

Other applications (a few Desktop Publishing packages are the most common offenders) refuse to run if this extension is installed. This used to mean that you'd have to reboot your Mac to switch between applications, which isn't very friendly behavior. GXMask is a Control Panel which lets you hide the existance of the GXGraphics Extension from all applications other than ones you select (a list of applications which are known to need GXGraphics is included). This allows you to have GXGraphics installed, and happily use applications which would normally refuse to run with it installed. In all the cases I've tested, this has proven safe, since those applications don't call GXGraphics, so the fact that it's installed would have little effect on them anyhow. Do Not use GXMask with the full QuickDraw GX installation. It will keep GXPrinting from functioning correctly. GXMask is only intended for use with GXGraphic 1.1.6 or later.

These programs are mainly available as Shareware/Freeware but there is also some less well known commercial software. Well-known commercial software is not represented in this version and neither is standard system software as you already have it! Apart from general information such as what kind of software it is (control panel, stack, application, etc), size, dates, and so forth, there is usually a description of what it does and a reference to what realm of operation (system, text, image, sound, etc) together with a subclass of this reference (conversion, print, catalogue, etc), thus providing many possibilities of selection. How could you possibly not have the only product which lists from A to Z nearly all the software there is for the Mac? Download the shareware sample now and try it!

If you have any old versions on your server, please replace them with this one. The enclosed file is a compressed, self-mounting disk image, so just double-click it to open the image on your desktop. Use Malph to switch between applications and to quickly launch commonly used applications. To switch to another app, click on the application icon in Malph. Malph also has a small indicator showing what process is currently frontmost, which updates if you click in application windows to switch between processes. New with Malph 3.0 is the ability to create and manage multiple Malph windows (documents). Other enhancements include a completely revamped interface, support for deep icons (available when running Mac OS 8.5 and later) and Contextual Menus. Take a look at the README HTML file included for a list of major features that have been included in Malph 3.0. Malph 3.0 requires PowerPC-based Macintosh running Mac OS 8 or later, although it works best when running on Mac OS 8.5 or later. Malph 3.0 is Shareware, which means if you use it you must pay US$12. Check out the Register application enclosed with Malph for details on registering Malph.

This tool was programmed for my own puposes and to help ease my insanity with Ray Dream's lack of file formats. It requires that all the images be PICTs and that the file names look like this: blahblah01 blahblah02 blahblah03 etc. Of course instead of blahblah you have some "descriptive" name. If you dislike either of these requirements than you are free to modify it, the download includes source code. If you make any good improvements to it though I'd appreciate it if you'd send them to me. Enjoy!

The most likely scenario in which you may need Search & Rescue is if you suffer from a crash (either application or system) while working on a typed document, and you lose some or all of you text. It is likely that the text is still there, somewhere, in memory, but with no way to get at it, you are stuck! This is where Search & Rescue comes in. You simply enter a portion of text, which you know to exist in your document, and Search and Rescue will locate possible places in memory where you may be able to salvage your text - either in part or, if you're lucky, in full. Search & Rescue can be recover text after a complete system restart. Requirements: Search & Rescue provides support for modern operating system features such as the appearance manager but also runs well on older, pre-Mac OS 8 systems, with at least System 7. Search & Rescue runs best with at least 1200K of memory allocated to it but, on machines with a limited amount of RAM, 600K will be sufficient for performing searches and saving recovered text.
