Nieuwe oogst Utilities

Hierbij stuur ik twee utilities op:

- TechTool(TM), versie 1.0.9, This utility is available for public use free of charge. However, it is NOT public domain©1995 MicroMat Computer Systems. Versie 1.0.8 van TechTool staat op PD Disk 1815.

Ik citeer uit de documentatie:

"TechTool is a handy utility which:

* Rebuilds the desktop
* Zaps the PRAM
* Tests for damaged system files
* Displays system information about the Macintosh

This feature will work on US AND WILL NOW work with international system versions. It will only work on system versions between 7.0 and 7.5.2."

[*** TechTool 1.0.9 vind je terug op PD 1830. Overigens, het "NOT public domain" wil zeggen dat niemand dit programma mag verkopen en er 60 gulden voor gaat vragen (ik noem maar een bedrag). Dat heeft dus niets te maken met het publiek verdelen en gebruiken, dat mag wel. Dit voor de duidelijkheid.]

- BugOff, versie 1.3.1, freeware, Copyright© 1993-94 by Herb Otto.

Ik citeer uit de documentatie:

"This package was developed to keep unauthorized people from gaining access to my computer system while I'm away from my desk. It does not utilize a sophisticated protection scheme but rather a simple effective deterrent. This keeps the occasional '...looking for a Mac to do a quick edit...' user off the system. The goal in developing BugOff was a safe and low-cost package with ease of use. BugOff provides a system startup password as well as a built-in screen saver with password dismissal. It allows for 2 passwords, the first being the system administrator or Owner which allows complete access to the system. The second lets users access the system with the exception of being able to open the preferences or have access to folders specified by the owner. It also provides a simple messaging system allowing users to send short messages to other people on their network.

As a screen saver, it will not interrupt any background processing. For instance, if you're in the middle of a modem transfer, it will continue even though the screen saver has activated. Processing will only be halted during the iris close of the screen. (très cool effect)"
