Subject: [*] Days To Go 2.1.2 - simple reminder program
Have you planned a big holiday, and want to count the days remaining
until you can escape from work. Wondering how many days it has been
since you were married? Then this program is for you.
Days To Go is a simple reminder program that can be used for a
variety of purposes. As the name suggests, it can be used to count
how many days it is until a specific date. In addition, Days To Go
can be used count how many days it has been since a specific date.
Recurring dates can be entered (for example, Christmas or a
birthday), and entries can be automatically deleted once the date has
passed (useful for once off occasions).
This version of Days To Go adds a delay option at startup (to
increase the time the messages are displayed on the screen), moves
the documentation out of the program and into a separate file, and
updates the contact information for Beyond Midnight Software.

Subject: [*] Fetch-O-Matic 2.4 automated website maintenance via FTP
Fetch-O-Matic (v.2.5) is suite of applications for automated website
maintenance via FTP. Fetch-O-Matic allows web authors to freely
create and update files locally without needing to keep track of
their work, and to then automatically catalog the alterations and
update the website. It also performs synchronization in the other
direction, watching a remote location and automatically downloading
any new or changed files appearing there. It provides seamless
integration with Macromedia Dreamweaver, Adobe GoLive, and similar
website authoring packages, offering more robust and more flexible
handling of file transfers. And if several people are maintaining a
site, Fetch-O-Matic protects them from treading on each other's
updates.
Fetch-O-Matic differs from other available synchronization and
maintenance schemes in that it does not require any local machine to
have a complete site copy. For example, one might decide to grab a
few pages and change them (and/or add some new files) from a
PowerBook. Later, the site copy on the primary machine can be quickly
brought up-to-date with just two clicks - without having to remember
what was changed or consult the PowerBook.
Fetch-O-Matic is easy to use. Novice web authors in search of a
simple way to update a personal web page need not be intimidated by
its power. Experienced hands will find that previously dreaded
operations such as multi-file search and replace, with the subsequent
headache of tracking down and uploading scattered altered files, are
rendered painless. Transfer errors such as uploading/downloading to
the wrong directory are a thing of the past.
Fetch-O-Matic was conceived and developed to fill a need in servicing
a large site (http://www.filmscouts.com). Uploads and downloads of
thousands of files at once have been performed with ease. But even on
a site with just a few pages, Fetch-O-Matic will ease the updating
chores.
Not just for websites, Fetch-O-Matic handles a range of FTP file
transfer operations, including continuous local and remote folder
watching and synchronization. It is in use as an FTP tool by news
organizations, webcam operators, and project co-ordinators in a wide
variety of situations worldwide.
Fetch-O-Matic requires Dartmouth's FTP client "Fetch", AppleScript,
the scripting addition Jon's Commands, and, optionally, Alessandro
Levi Montalcini's "List Files" (providing a significant speed
improvement for large sites), all of which are readily available
online. Fetch-O-Matic runs on any Mac OS machine with reasonable
(8mb+) RAM running System 7, 8, or 9. It runs in the background. It
is shareware with a single-user license fee of $20. There is a free
30-day trial period. The complete documentation is available online

Subject: [*] SFX Machine 1.41 - Audio Multi-Effects Plug-In
The new version of SFX Machine is the most powerful, easy-to-use
sound mangling appliance available for the Mac.
SFX Machine has won Electronic Musician's Editor's Choice Award, a
Key Buy award from Keyboard Magazine, and acclaim from dozens of
leading sound designers and composers. It is now available direct
from its author, The Sound Guy, at a new low price. This
try-before-you-buy copy of SFX Machine is fully functional the first
ten times you launch it; thereafter, it will act as a demo until
purchased.
This plug-in can be used as a sample creation tool, a sound design
tool, or a multi-effects unit that goes far beyond the usual types of
effects. It has a simple front-end that lets you load presets and
modify them using sliders. Almost 400 presets are included, and
others will be available from our web site. In addition, a powerful
modular synthesis engine lets you create your own effects. If you
want, the Randomize button will make something up for you.
We've eliminated the pesky key-disk and challenge/response copy
protection. Also, SFX Machine 1.41 SOUNDS better than ever before.
Instead of using 4-byte floats for our computations and delay-lines,
we're now using 8-byte doubles. The result: less noise, more
transparency. We want to crunch your numbers, not your signal.
(Unless you want your signal crunched.)
Real-time plug-in formats are great, but most effects programs don't
allow arbitrarily bizarre patches and twisted feedback loops,
precisely because they may not be computationally efficient enough to
run in real time. If you're tired of traditional been-there-done-that
effects and you're ready to hear the sound of a super-computer giving
itself a groin injury, you've come to the right place. By the way,
SFX Machine 1.41 is now optimized for G4s!
SFX Machine requires a Power Macintosh and a Premiere-format host
program. It works with Peak, Deck, Vision, Premiere, Digital
Performer, Logic Audio, Metro, and TurboMorph. SFX Machine 1.41 is
available only from the Sound Guy, [email protected],

available on my PowerMac 7300 internal video board. Enjoy your Apple 15"
monitor in 1024 x 768, or 640 x 480 in 120Hz !
*SwitchRes is totally configurable. You can define which resolutions are
really accessible, and which will require a confirmation.
*You can also create display sets which will allow you to change the
resolution and the depth of all your monitors with just one mouse click,
or just one key. With this new version, you can add scripts to display
sets. That gives SwitchRes the ability to launch a script with just one
key, or when an application is launched...
*You can assign a specific set to an application, so that every time you
use this application, your Mac will automatically switch to your
predefined resolutions. You will find this extremely useful for most
games.
*You can save the position of the icons and the windows on your desktop,
independently from one resolution to the other, unlike the Finder. The
configuration is restored at startup.
*You can script SwitchRes for resolutions and color depth changes.
SwitchRes is even recordable: When SwitchRes is running, every
resolution change is automatically recorded in the script editor

Subject: [*] The Dailies 1.0.6 - Daily Startup and Shutdown Items.
"The Dailies" create the possibility of having Startup Items and
Shutdown Items that are launched only once every day - no matter how
often you may need to restart.
Use:
Throw the "Daily Startup" application in your "Startup Items" folder.
The first time it's run it will create a "Daily Startup Items" folder
in your System Folder. Whatever you put in that folder will be launched
no more than once a day.
Throw the "Daily Shutdown" application in your "Shutdown Items" folder.
The first time it's run it will create a "Daily Shutdown Items" folder
in your System Folder. Whatever you put in that folder will be launched
no more than once a day.
System Requirements:
- AppleScript needs to be installed
- Works under Mac OS 7.5 through 9.1
History:
- 1.0.6 Fixed a bug where sometimes DailyStartup would stupidly inform
you that the folder "Daily Startup Items" already exists.
- 1.0.5 - Now also works correctly under non-US systems (more
specifically: if your Date & Time settings are non-US).
- 1.0.4 - First public release
Legalese:
The Dailies are freeware. Do with it whatever you like, except sell it!

Subject: MODEM Speed indication in OS X
After switching to OS X (well, part time) the thing I find I miss most
ais a connect speed indication. In previous versions I could look at
the status window on The Remote Access Control Panel and get an
indication. Yep, I know it is not *dead on accurate* but it is at least
a yardstick. If I conect at 28800 instead of 44000, I know that my
transfer rates will be slower, and I may decide to disconnnect and
reconnect if I need to do a bunch of file transfers.
Well, anybody got any ideas about how to get a connect speed indication
in OS X?
Thanks,
