Subject: add spaces


add spaces(runtime droplet) & add spaces (run only script)

Copyright � 1999 Mitch Leung, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

About this package

add spaces(runtime droplet) is an AppleScript application while add
spaces (run only script) is an AppleScript run only compiled script.
The purpose of these scripts is to deal with some horrible situation
where Netscape Communicator/Navgiator doesn't not wrap a 2 byte
language sentence with some 2 byte language viewing utilities on PC.
Apparently, adding an extra space will solve the problem.

#### BINHEX     align-utilities-818.hqx   ****

From: [email protected]
Subject: Align Utilities 8.1.8


Align Utilities 8.1.8 - is a set of two AppleScript Drag & Drop applications,
Window Align and Icon Align, that are useful in improving the appearance
of disk and folder windows under Mac OS 8. These are internationalized
applications that should work properly in any language.

Window align - positions windows of desktop folders and disks at the
upper left corner of the main screen, just below the Menu bar; all other
folder windows are positioned so that its left edge is aligned with that
of its parent and its title bar is just below the title bar of its
parent. The width and height of the window conforms to the Width and
Height preferences. An Option Key feature lets you position windows for
all sub-folders, sub-sub-folders, etc. This version adds a new List Max
/ List Min preference and corrects a problem with deeply nested folders.
(Requires Mac OS 8.0, 8.1 or 8.5)

Icon Align - aligns icons in a window with icon view to a grid with 2, 3
or 4 columns and in a list view window sets the View Options to Name
only. An Option Key feature lets you copy the View of a window to all of
its sub-folders, sub-sub-folders, etc. (Requires Mac OS 8.0 or 8.1. Not
compatible with 8.5.)



#### BINHEX     apperance-osax-111.hqx   ****

From: HOnza Koudelka <[email protected]>

Subject: 24U Appearance OSAX 1.1.1



Appearance OSAX is a scripting addition that gives you the features

you always missed when writing scripts using AppleScript and wanted

to interact with a user. The four features available since version

1.0 let you pop-up Appearance savvy movable non-blocking alerts,

floating text messages, floating progress indicators, and post

standard system notifications.



The 1.1.1 update also adds a brand new command called "display better

dialog" which is a powerful replacement for the standard-but-limited

"display dialog" command included with every Mac OS installation.



However, even with these five powerful features, Appearance OSAX

stays almost as easy to understand and easy to use as the original

Apple's scripting additions. So unlike other 3rd-party dialog

utilities for AppleScript, Appearance OSAX can do its good job for

you within only few minutes after you download it.





Since the year 2000, 24U s.r.o. is committed to software development,

modification and distribution, creating custom software solutions,

and providing training and consultations for users of Mac OS and

Windows.



We offer solutions for people, not for computers.

From: [email protected]
Subject: KeyQuencer Lite 2.5.5

KeyQuencer is a utility that lets you create shortcuts (called "macros") that
perform a series of tasks with a single keystroke. Because you can automate
virtually any task with KeyQuencer, you can use it to save hours and hours of
time.

You can use KeyQuencer to:

Launch or quit programs, open documents or folders, or switch applications Type
text or keystrokes Click or drag the mouse Press buttons Choose from menus
Navigate scroll bars, move or select windows, or wait for specific events Copy,
move, rename, or delete files or folders Jump directly to any folder or disk from
within an Open or Save file dialog Copy and paste text from up to ten clipboards
Compress, decompress or BinHex encode files and folders with the StuffIt Engine

Control one or more computers across a network, synchronize the clocks or
clipboards Open or close a PPP connection And much more!


What the Critics Say About KeyQuencer
-------------------------------------
"Four Mice" -MacUser, January 97

"KeyQuencer offers a lean, mean, inexpensive alternative to CE Software's
QuicKeys, automating your Mac with less memory and for fewer dollars."
-Macworld, September 97

"KeyQuencer feels lean, mean and clean; we doubt anyone would use those
words about QuicKeys." -MacWeek, May 19, 1997

"Binary Software's KeyQuencer is probably the most powerful and flexible
macro program on the market." -Macintosh Daily Journal, April 97


Why KeyQuencer Is Better than the Competition
----------------------------------------------
KeyQuencer is the fastest. KeyQuencer macros execute much faster than any
other macro utility.
KeyQuencer is the most powerful. Over 70 built-in commands let you do
anything!
KeyQuencer is the most reliable. KeyQuencer never, ever, ever crashes.
It's virtually conflict free.

#### BINHEX     open-in-browser-11.hqx   ****

From: [email protected]
Subject: Open in Browser 1.1



Open in Browser AppleScript can be used from any location on your computer,
It opens html files from a folder of your choice in your browser. One html file per
browser window. Great for when you have to print out a web site from the browser or you
want to quickly skim through all your pages.

Requires: Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer, AppleScript, MacOS

Version 1.1 fixes a bug in  sub-folder searching. Also makes navigator windows at 640 by 480 instead of default.

How To Use:
1. Run the script (double click on it). Script may ask you where your browser is.

2. Script asks for a folder where your .htm or .html files are located

3. Script asks if it should search sub-folders within folder selected in step 2

4. Script proceeds to open each page in its own navigator window

5. Once finished, the script alerts the user with a dailog. This script does not modify in anyway the files or their file names.

Updated scripts and other cool stuff can be downloaded and seen from:

#### BINHEX     osa-menu-122.hqx   ****

From: John Rethorst <[email protected]>
Subject: OSA Menu 1.2.2


"OSA Menu is an iconic system menu (like the Help menu) that appears on the
right side of the menu bar. Its menu items are scripts: choose an item from
the menu and the script will run. Some commands are always available, and
some are only available within particular applications. Generally the
target of the script is the active application, and scripts that operate on
the user selection are particularly useful. Scripts in the OSA Menu act
like extensions to the command set of the application." - Leonard
Rosenthol, author

New in this version: further support for OS 9, bug fixes. The author
recommends that all users, on OS 9 or earlier, update to this version.
Free. Further information available at

Subject: OSL_DD Watchdog

OSL_DD Watchdog

What it is: AppleScript that watches your extensions folder for unwanted
ObjectSupportLib and Macintosh Drag and Drop.
Author: Ton Brand
Company: Ton's Software
License: freeware
Abstract:
Some applications install an obsolete library 'ObjectSupportLib' (OSL) or an
obsolete extension
'Macintosh Drag and Drop' (DD) in the Extensions folder. Since the
introduction of Mac OS 8, ObjectSupportLib is integrated in the system
software and since system 7.5 Macintosh Drag and Drop is built in also.
The obsolete files could lead to strange effects or even crashes. So is would
be useful to check after every third-party software install procedure whether
ObjectSupportLib and/or Macintosh Drag and Drop was wrongfully added. OSL_DD
Watchdog does this for you, after you have put the program or its alias in
the Startup Items folder (which is in your System folder).



#### BINHEX     palm-synch-n-quit-20.hqx   ****

From: "Joseph C. Slater" <[email protected]>
Subject: Palm Synch-n-Quit 2.0


This script runs the Palm Serial Port Monitor (SPM), then quits it after
a the Conduit Manager quits so you don't have to remember to quit it and
get the nasty crash on wake problem. If you follow the instructions, you
can then just hit an F-key, hit synch on your Palm, and not worry about
remembering to quit or having to go to a menu to select a script that
quits it. This script is set for a 15 second delay, meaning you have 15
seconds once you have the SPM running to get the Palm in position and
tell it to synch.

From: [email protected] (Blake Ward)
Subject: SerialPort Scripting Addition 1.2

There are lots of devices from modems and printers to uninterruptable
power supplies and home automation systems that easily plug into any
serial port to communicate with a computer.  Unfortunately, all too
frequently these devices come with Windows or DOS software only.
Until now, if you wanted to communicate with these devices from the
Macintosh, you were stuck writing complicated serial port
communication code in a language like C or C++.

The SerialPort scripting addition makes it possible to send and
recieve data over the serial port from AppleScript using very easy to
write scripts.  This shareware scripting addition comes with a
comprehensive manual, several sample scripts, and glue code for using
it from Frontier.  The SerialPort scripting addition supports all of
the communication settings (baud rate, handshaking, etc.) and any
Macintosh serial port (including add-in cards).

For more information on the SerialPort scripting addition and our
other shareware products, please visit our web site:

   http://www.seracsoftware.com/

This release adds another command to check to see how much data is
waiting to be sent.  It also updates the user's manual and updates
the contact info.

Simple Scripts is basically just a test for me, where i'm finding out
about my very minimal AppleScript coding skills. I used to do simple
scripts like this a couple of years ago, then they were known as Cleaner
Package. As a matter a fact, i got pretty much good feedback from those
people who used it. It was also my first appearance on the Internet as a
script producer. I eaven got my scripts on an issue of MacFormat, an
british Mac magazine.

Subject: Tell Me-MRJ


Tell Me-MRJ: a free AppleScript utility. Great for your Automated
Tasks folder.

An AppleScript script application that tells what version of the
file "MRJLib" is resident on your startup disk.

Compatibility (as-is) with MacOS versions later than 8.1 is
unknown.  If the path searched by the script is incorrect, feel
free to edit this as appropriate.

Thanks for downloading

Subject: Traverse Eudora Mailfolder Tree in AppleScript


This script contains a handler to traverse the entire Eudora mailfolder
tree and build a corresponding hierarchic structure in AppleScript in the
course of doing so.

Unfortunately scripting support of Eudora is only rudimentary. Eudora does
not understand "every" and "whose" which makes it necessary to read complex
structures one by one from Eudora.

It is obviously possible to do the same thing faster by reading Eudora's
mail folders from disk, but that would make your script vulnerable to
incompatibility when Qualcomm decides to change the underlying data
structure, which they have already done once in  the past. Also, Eudora
V4.2  supports remote IMAP mailboxes residing on a mail server rather than
on your local disk. These folders can only be parsed using Eudora as means
of getting the data rather than bypassing it.

The script is commented in detail and it can provide a base for an
extensible script object. It can also serve as a base to derive a script
that performs the same task for Eudora's nickname tree.

Use and distribute freely in any non-profit context.

#### BINHEX     voice-controlled-finder-18.hqx   ****

From: Dave Miller <[email protected]>
Subject: Voice-controlled Finder 1.8


This package contains AppleScript scripts that I have
developed to enable voice-control of many Macintosh Finder functions.
These scripts extend and in some cases replace scripts provided with the
PlainTalk speech recognition software from Apple Computer. These scripts
use the basic, minimum AppleScript set-up in System 8.5.1. You will need
a PPC computer and System 8.5.1 (some scripts may run under earlier systems).

For more information on these AppleScript scripts and other software I have
developed, or for questions, comments, and feedback contact:

Subject: Weedhopper Commands OSAX 1.01 - resource read/write


Weedhopper Commands is a scripting addition that provides several
commands for manipulating resources.  These commands are especially
useful for creating and storing preferences, but they may also be
used whenever you need to access the resource fork of a file.  The
commands provided are:

readRes - read a resource from a file, or from your own application
writeRes - write a resource of any type
deleteRes - remove old or unnecessary resources
newResFile - create a file with a resource fork
readStrings - reads and parses a STR# resource
writeStrings - store a list of strings into a standard STR# resource
getFonts - obtain a list of available fonts, for custom font menus

Weedhopper Commands OSAX is fully functional, but a $9 shareware fee
is requested if you use it for more than 30 days.

Subject: X 10 Home Automation Scripting Addition 1.2

Would you rather wake up to gentle background music from your stereo
and the smell of fresh brewed coffee? Ever wish your computer could
turn on the printer when you want to print a file and then turn it
back off when it was finished? Would you like your house to look
lived in when you're away on vacation? Ever wanted to just say
"Stereo On" and have your stereo turn on? Now you can do all of this
and more from your Macintosh using AppleScript!

This shareware package provides a collection of scripting commands
that let you control appliances, lights, etc. from AppleScript using
a very inexpensive CP290 interface and X-10 modules that are
available at many electronics stores or via mail order.

If you're new to home automation or AppleScript, the detailed manual
provides lots of background information, examples, mail order
companies for the interface and modules, contacts for home automation
magazines, etc. For less than $60 and very little effort you can get
started in home automation - check it out!

For more information on the X10 scripting addition and our other
shareware products, please visit our web site:

This is version 1.2, which updates the manual and the contact information.
