Beyond All Date is a flexible calendar, alarm clock and reminder.
Version 1.1 introduces project managment (time tracking)
functionality formerly known as "TimeLabel" and fixes a lot of bugs,
especially a problem that would cause the application to not start up
properly.

DupliMizer 1.0.3
What it is: Tool that duplicates and optimizes your entire web folder
Author: Ton Brand
Company: Ton's Software
License: shareware US$8.00
Computer: PowerPC
Required: osax 'Acme Scripting Widgets'
MacOS: 8.6 or later
Abstract:
DupliMizer is an AppleScript program that duplicates your web folder and
optimizes all the web pages contained by it. Drag your web folder to the
program's icon and your whole web site is optimized in one pass! There is a
limit to the hierarchical depth that DupliMizer can handle: EIGHT levels,
which must be sufficient in practically all cases. So that lonely page that
resides eight levels deep in a far-away sub-folder is also optimized. A
detailed log with tab-delimited data is saved to DupliMizer's parent folder.
DupliMizer needs on average 5 seconds to optimize one file (on a 225 MHz
computer).
MacOS 8.6 or later is needed because of the AppleScript Update that came with
it. You also need the Scripting Addition (osax) "ACME Script Widgets".

FoldIt_light_465.hqx
'FoldIt (light) v.4.6.5' is a molecular modelling program to visualize
and manipulate protein coordinate files in the Brookhaven PDB format.
The protein structure can be manipulated easily in real time with the
mouse, zoomed or observed in stereo. Structure movement can also occur
stepwise for a more precise control. Animations can be created. Protein
structures can be analyzed. Several protein structures are included as
example. Balloon and online helps are supported and a printable user
manual is also included. The present version runs native on PowerPC
MacOS compatible microcomputers.
This application may be included on the archive's CD-ROM and distributed
freely.

HTML Optimizer 3.0.3
What it is: Tool for checking and optimizing your web pages
Author: Ton Brand
Company: Ton's Software
License: shareware US$5.00
Computer: Any Mac
Required: HyperCard Player
MacOS: 7.5 or later
Abstract:
HTML Optimizer's main function is to save space on your web pages by removing
unnecessary characters and tags, making parsing the page by a browser more
efficient.
Three other useful functions of HTML Optimizer are:
(1) Checking the so called tagged pairs, i.e. the tags that always have to
appear together with their end tags. Further, IMG tags are checked for WIDTH,
HEIGHT and ALT attributes.
(2) Marking dangling tags and missing attributes to find them quickly.
(3) Converting special characters to the &....; notation.
HTML Optimizer requires Mac OS 7.5 or later and HyperCard Player 2.3 or
later.

Four other useful functions of HTML OptimizerPro are:
(1) Checking the so called tagged pairs, i.e. the tags that always have to

without string.
(2) Checking the validity of the internal links.
(3) Marking dangling tags and missing attributes to find them quickly.
(4) Converting special characters to the &....; notation.
HTML OptimizerPro optimizes very fast: a few seconds for an average file.
New in this update is that optimizing and checking hyperlinks works more
efficient.
HTML OptimizerPro is a PPC application and requires Mac OS 7.5 or later.

Subject: [*] JanusNode-108.hqx (formerly 'McPoet')
A JanusNode is a software robot (descended from an earlier, simpler
application called 'McPoet') that is designed for text generation and text
morphing: that is, for writing computer-generated and computer-assisted
poetry and prose. JanusNodes use their own simple language to allow the
text-generation rules (called 'TextDNA') to be completely
user-configurable. It is easy for users to write their own TextDNA even if
they know nothing about programming the Mac. Users can also use the large
set of built-in rules, or the automatic TextDNA-generating function which
can turn ordinary texts into executable TextDNA. The text morphing features
include an automatic version of Tristan Tzara's original Dadaist formula
for creating poetry from text (and many variations on it), an
eecummingsfication feature for imitating the style of the great poet ee
cummings, multiple forms of Markov chaining and much more. JanusNodes are
highly user-configurable, and can be massively expanded by the end-user.
JanusNodes are uncopyrighted and free. They may be freely redistributed.
They require at least 15 megabytes of free disk space, at least 5 megabytes
of available RAM, and a PowerPC processor.
Version 1.08 fixes numerous minor bugs, adds new functionality (including
user-configurable pluralization and tense markers) and includes several new
external resources.

This is the Japanese version of the NewCM package.
NewCM is a contextual menu plugin that makes it easy to make new documents
in a specific location. After configuring it by putting commonly used file
types in a "NewCM Items" folder, you can control-click in a Finder folder
window and select one of those types from a submenu. NewCM then creates the
file and opens it.
There is also a "NewCM Applications" folder, which you can use to specify
alternate applications for opening the new files. You can even use this
feature to run scripts!
Nifty changes in version 1.2.2
- NewCM no longer requires Mac OS Easy Open to run. If you have MOSEO turned
off, NewCM's menus will always display the file names instead of the types.

PixelToy isn't a game, nor is it a screen saver, nor a paint program

generate an endless variety of beautiful, mesmerizing moving images.
You can have PixelToy's display dance to live sound input, and

PixelToy may be fun, but it's not just a toy! Dance clubs and cafes
around the world dazzle audiences with PixelToy's live visual
effects. What's more, visual artists have added PixelToy to their
arsenal of video effects generation software, using QuickTime movies
from PixelToy in non-linear video editors such as iMovie and Adobe
After Effects.
Features new to version 2.1:
o Optional real-time QuickTime export mode
o Control windows for actions, filters, colors, sets, and options
o AutoPilot feature to randomly change parameters over time
o User-configurable smooth color palette transitions
o Audio input gain control
o Frames-per-second display
o Plus lots more!

Subject: [*] Power Menu 2.2.3J - Japanese Version
This is the Japanese version of the PowerMenu package.
PowerMenu is a utility that adds powerful commands to your contextual menu
if you are running MacOS 8 or better. If you are running the older
Macintosh System 7, PowerMenu adds a contextual menu to your system so you
can still use this innovative feature without upgrading to MacOS 8.
PowerMenu's contextual menu commands let you do all these operations with a
single click:
*Open files straight into any application. If the application you want to
use isn't running, PowerMenu automatically launches it for you.
*Move, copy or make an alias of files straight into target folders of your
choosing.
*Quickly open commonly used files or launch any application.
PowerMenu also provides these handy features:
*"File Copy and Paste", a unique feature that makes manipulating files much
easier. With File Copy and Paste, you can "pick up" files and "drop" them
into another folder without dragging and dropping. You can even "gather"
many files from different locations and copy or move them all to a single
target folder with just a few clicks or keystrokes!
*A pop-up menu, accessible from any application, that lets you quickly open
or launch your commonly used files and applications with a single click.
PowerMenu gets the job done faster with:
*Fully hierarchical menus to allow you to group items into submenus for
even faster access.
*Multithreaded operation; PowerMenu rebuilds your menus in the background
while you work, so even very large menus appear instantly.
*Takes full advantage of MacOS 8 features, but is still fully compatible
with System 7!
Changes in version 2.2.3J: Corrects a startup bug and greatly accelerates
the drawing of custom icons under MacOS 8.5.

The Book of Changes 3.3.1
This program is a version of the I Ching. For centuries, the I Ching has
been used both as an oracle to predict the future, and as a source of
deep wisdom. The querent asks a question, then drops three coins six
times. Each drop determines one line of a hexagram, whether is solid or
broken, moving or unmoving. The resulting six-lined figure is then
interpreted.
Even if you have no interest in divination, the I Ching can offer
valuable insight into your own psyche, shedding light on how you really
feel about a problem.

Hello,
I am having some trouble with my new OS9. I have a machine
at the office and a machine at home, both running MacOS9.
Both have full time net connections.
Of course I want to connect them over the net.
On my office machine, is named
mathmac44.math.uwaterloo.ca
I said yes to file sharing, and have a directory called "pub"
with sharing turned on. From home, I opened "Chooser", clicked
on AppleShare, (Appletalk is on), and clicked on "Server IP address".
I was invited to "Enter the Server Address", and typed this in
afp://mathmac44.math.uwaterloo.ca
After I pressed return, a moment or two passed and then I got the message
Couldn't find the server
"afp://mathmac44.math.uwaterloo."
What I see here is a character string with 31 characters. I am
wondering if the reason that my server could not be found is that
the limit for the length of a file name is also the limit for
the URL.
I am sure that I will want to set up the same file sharing in reverse,
with my machie at home being the server. If there is a problem
with the lenght of the string, I am really out of luck, because
the pathname there is even longer.
You might be thinking that I should use the numbers, and not the
name. I tried that, and again, it did not work.o
Am I doing something wrong, or am I dealing with limited software?
