Subject: [*] CyberStretch by Jazzercise: An interactive Screensaver
Product: Cyberstretch by Jazzercise
Version: 1.0
Demo: 30 day
Abstract:
CyberStretch is an innovative new software program that offers energizing
stretch breaks to reduce tension and repetitive stress injuries in an
easy-to-use interactive screensaver format. It consists of 26
body-specific, timed stretches (in full color illustrations) and 26
action tips (vision and relaxation breaks, posture checks and fitness
tips).
CyberStretch is designed to:
* Allow the user to work at a computer in greater comfort.
* Provide the user with needed posture, relaxation, vision and
fitness breaks.
* Offer body-specific, timed stretches; all stretches are
physiologist-approved.
* Help reduce muscle tension and the risk of a repetitive stress
injury.
* Improve "environ-mentality" by increasing ergonomic awareness.
* Enhance the mind and body by reducing physical and mental
stress.
* Address workplace issues mandated by governmental agencies.
* Enhance productivity.
* Run on Macintosh and Windows.
System requirements:
* System 7.1 or better including System 8.1
* Power Macintosh or 68040 recommended
* 10 MB of hard drive space
* Works best with the PowerPC

Subject: [*] e: WebButtons 1.0b3 update
3AM Coffee Software (http://www.3am.pair.com) is proud to announce the
release of WebButtons 1.0 Beta 3. WebButtons is an easy to use beveled
button and banner creator for web graphics and multimedia presentations.
Version 1.0b3 provides full compatibility with MacOS 9 Multiple Users and
provides several bug fixes.
Note: WebButtons 1.0 requires MacOS 8.5 or better.
WebButtons is shareware. It will function for 30 days, after which a $15
shareware fee must be paid. Use of WebButtons buttons in a public forum
(such as a web site) also requires payment of the shareware fee.
Features include:
o Intuitive graphical interface for button & banner creation
o Three-dimensional button effects; all colors user selectable
o Text, pictures, and background textures
o Powerful batch language for easy creation of entire web sites' worth of
buttons
o Dithering to web-safe color palette, if desired
o JPEG and PICT file formats

Subject: [*] Revised Submission
This is version 0.3 of TempCleaner. It now sports Balloon Help in the
finder and a better Icon. Following is a suggested blurb:
Before MacOS 9, the Temporary Items Folder was a visible folder in
the System Folder and users could just throw accumulated cruft in the
Trash. With OS 9, Apple hid the Temporary Items folder so well that
not even Sherlock can find it. This is further explained in Article
#25134 from Apple's Technical Information Library.
The solution - Apple says they will fix the problem and I'm sure they
will. Until then, they recommend an AppleScript that doesn't actually
work. TempCleaner does work by searching the Temporary Items Folder
at startup and, if there is anything there, moving it to a 'From
Temporary Items' folder in the Trash. Actually, it won't move more
than 20 at a time but I wanted it to be fast enough that you wouldn't
notice it.

This award winning screensaver counts the time to a user specified target
date. The Cosmos Clock defaults to counting down to the year 2000. In
addition to counting to a date in the future, the Cosmos Clock can also
tell you the time since an event occured. Besides being a very functional
screensaver, the clock is filled with 3d animated graphics of all the
planets of the solar system.

Subject: [*] video-toolbox-00-06-22-c.sit
The VideoToolbox is a collection of
two hundred C subroutines and several demo and utility programs that I
and others have written to do visual psychophysics with Macintosh
computers. It's fully compatible with 68K and PowerPC Macs and with
Metrowerks CodeWarrior and Symantec C compilers. It's free and may not be
sold without permission. It should be useful to anyone who wants to
present accurately specified visual stimuli or use the Mac for
psychometric experiments. The Videoásynch page discusses all the ways of
synchronizing programs to video displays and the many pitfalls to avoid.
The TimeVideo application checks out the timing of all video devices in
anticipation of their use in critical real-time applications, e.g. movies
or lookup table animation. Videoásynch reports all known bugs uncovered
by TimeVideo's testing of 56 video cards and drivers. Low-level routines
control video timing and lookup tables, display real-time movies, and
implement the luminance-control algorithms suggested by Pelli and Zhang
(1991). In particular, CopyWindows (or CopyBitsQuickly) faithfully copies
between on-screen and off-screen windows (or bit/pixmaps), WindowToEPS
saves an image to disk as encapsulated PostScript, for later printing or
incorporation into a document, and SetEntriesQuickly and GDSetEntries
load the screen's color lookup table, all without any of QuickDraw's
color translations. NoisePdfFill.c quickly generates visual noise images
whose pixels are samples from a specified probability density function.
High-level routines help analyze psychophysical experiments (e.g.
maximum-likelihood fitting and graphing of psychometric data). Assign.c
is a runtime C interpreter for C assignment statements, which is useful
for controlling experiments and sharing calibration data. This collection
has been continually updated since 1991. Nearly two hundred colleagues
subscribe to the email distribution (see below), and have indicated that
they are using the software in their labs. Documentation is in the source
files themselves. Many of the routines are Mac-specific, but some very
useful routines, e.g. the luminance-control, statistics,
maximum-likelihood fitting algorithms, and the runtime interpreter are
written in Standard C and will work on any computer. Those wishing to
acknowledge use of the VideoToolbox software might cite:

My Syracuse University access to the web is being restricted to syr.edu

anyone recommend a free ISP that works with system 7.5.5 or 7.6?
Alternately, anybody know of a place to get OS 8 cheaply? Thanks!

Subject: free ISPs
My Syracuse University access to the web is being restricted to syr.edu
sites (yet another way to screw grad students trying to do research). Can
anyone recommend a free ISP that works with system 7.5.5 or 7.6?
Alternately, anybody know of a place to get OS 8 cheaply? Thanks!

Subject: Virtual PC
I have a friend who is considering switching some of his equipment from PCs
to Macs. However, he currently has a NETBUI network in place and his
printer is one that is directly attached to one of the PCs. With Virtual
PC would he be able to access the printer on that PC? The Virtual PC tech
support didn't know.
