Super 7 Utilities (aka "Super Seven Utilities") is a collection of
seven utilities, similar in principle to Now Utilities, that add
functionality to your Mac. The package was released not long after
Apple's System 7.
The utilities all take the form of control panels (cdevs), and are as
follows:
Desktop Extras 1.0, by Christopher Wysocki. Adds an "Extras" menu to
the menu bar, allowing copying and moving of files in the Finder from
a single menu. Also provides quick access to special destination
folders such as the Apple Menu and Preferences, among others.
Helium Pro 1.0, by Robert L. Mathews. Adds a keystroke for
enabling/disabling balloon help. Also allows for customizing the font
and size of help balloons.
Mighty Menus 1.0, by Andrew Welch. Adds "tear-off" menus to any
application.
Printer Picker 1.0, by Joe Zobkiw. Adds a printer selection menu to
the menu bar (similar to the later Printer Menu Extension from Apple).
Speed Beep Pro 1.0, by Robert L. Mathews. Provides various sound and
alert customization options.
Super Comments 1.0, by Maurice Volaski. Displays the Finder's "Get
Info" comments with Open, Save, and Save As dialog boxes. Also
preserves comments when rebuilding the desktop file.
Trash Alias 1.2, by Maurice Volaski. Allows for automatic deletion of
associated aliases when the parent programs, files, or folders are
deleted.
Imaged from original, untouched media as an 800k Disk Copy 4.2 disk
image, compressed using StuffIt 1.5.1, and encoded as BinHex 4.0.
Serial #: 129103668. (Each control panel must be "personalized"
individually.)

From the Super 7 Utilities "Read Me" file:
> KNOWN PROBLEMS AND INCOMPATIBILITIES:
>
> MIGHTY MENUS?
> \--------------
>
> 1\. RADIUS WARE AND MIGHTY MENUS LOAD ORDER
>
> Radius Ware must load before Mighty Menus. Add an extra space to the
> front of the name " Radius Ware" to ensure that it loads first. This
> should result in two spaces in its name.
>
> 2\. HIERARCHICAL MENUS CRASH UNDER THE APPLE MENU
>
> Mighty Menus can't tear off the Apple Menu. Some programs, such as
> Boomerang, add hierarchical menus to the Apple menu which can be
> torn off. However, If you tear a hierarchical menu off, you will
> crash. Don't tear off hierarchical menus from the Apple menu.
>
> PRINTER PICKER?
> \----------------
>
> 1\. SHEET FEEDER DRIVER CAUSES DUPLICATE PRINTER NAMES
>
> Sheet Feeder installs a second LaserWriter printer driver in the
> System Folder. Printer Picker does not know that both of these
> drivers point to the same printers and hence display each printer
> twice. In the Search Options screen, you must de-select the driver
> that Sheet Feeder installed. You may have to experiment to determine
> which of the two LaserWriter drivers to de-select.
