The Application Switching Manager is a public interface that several third party utilities support. It is currently support by ClaireWare Software's Program Switcher and Binary Software's PowerSwitch. For more information on these programs, please visit one of the following web pages: http://www.kamprath.net/claireware/program_switcher.html http://www.binarysoft.com/psmac/psmac.html What is required? Application Commander requires the following: Apple's Speech Recognition System v1.5 or later (comes with MacOS 8.5) PowerPC processor Program Switcher v4.4.0 or PowerSwitch v1.0.0 or later MacOS 8.0 or later How do I use it? All you need to do is enable the Speech Recognition Manager in the Speech control panel and then launch Application Commander. Application Commander is a "background only application," so there are no options or other user interface to mess with. To cause Application Commander to do something, all you have to do is say a command that Application Commander recognizes and it will act on that command. Application Commander recognizes the following commands: Switch to the Finder Switch to the Last Application Switch to Hide Other Applications Hide the Current Application Hide All Applications but the Finder Show All Applications Quit All Applications Quit All Other Applications Quit Application Commander Launch Most commands should be self explanatory. The "Switch to " means that you say "Switch to" and the name of a running application and Application Commander will take you to it.

In this version (1.10), it supports the conversion between Gregorian, Julian, Sinic (a.k.a. Chinese, as PRC insists), ISO, Islamic, and Hebrew calendars. Many festivals are also supported so that you can easily find when is Easter, Orthodox Easter, Chinese New Year, Hanukkah, and Ramaden. You can also find the sunrise/sunset time and the moon phase in the city where you live. V1.1 added a calendar window so that you can have an overview of the whole month. The holidays in the month are shown in a different color. By placing the cursor on the calendar cell, the holiday information will be shown in a balloon. You can also edit holiday file(s) to place holidays in your country and other important dates of your own. V1.1 also added the ephemeris of the sun, the moon, and the nine planets. You can easily find in which zodiac sign is Venus. Cheers, PS.

Even if you are a beginner in programming you may build, and sell, your own savescreen application! The SDK project lets you concentrate only on the creative part of developing: the main, and more tedious, part of work is already done. You may simply change the contents of one routine to have a new savescreen. If you're more experienced, instead, you may add routines, change resources and create explosive images. HypnOptic Modules are Appearance savvy and require at least System 7 to run.

HypnOptic becomes HypnOptic Savescreen System, a modular and customizable package that, better than before, will drive you crazy. The HypnOptic INIT automates the savescreen starting and the HypnOptic Control lets you select your favoured module, the idle time and decide whether the module should play sounds. Furthermore the Control accepts, as module, any kind of file so it may launch, after the inactivity time, the file you want: different savescreen applications, disk defragmentation utilities, the letter you're writing, since one year, to your sweetheart and so on. Modules are stand-alone applications so, if you want, you may use them also without the Control-INIT aid (just like the old HypnOptic), moreover any module is able to play sounds asynchronously. Besides INIT and Control, the HypnOptic Savescreen System package contains four modules: * HypnOptic Classic, the first, original version of the savescreen responsible for, always living, HypnOpticmania. * HypnOptic Standard, based on Classic version with some additional graphic element. It may, casually, use RGB Colors and patterns, in addition to Classic QuickDraw. * OloPpat, it use patterns for creating a simple, but nice, savescreen. * Sixties, a totally new savescreen with a psychedelic feeling... Last, but not least, you may find inside the package a SDK for developing your own savescreen application. The SDK project lets you concentrate only on the creative part of developing: the main, and more tedious, part of work is already done. Even if you're a inexperienced programmer you may easily build your own HypnOptic, stand-alone, module. The SDK contains also a fifth savescreen: HOSDK. HypnOptic Control is Internet Config and Navigation Manager aware, moreover it's Appearance savvy.

In simple terms, Type and Creator signitures are the codes by which the Mac OS associates files with applications. They also effect the icon which a file displays on the desktop. It can be useful to be able to change these if you, for example, have a bunch of text files which you saved while surfing the World Wide Web. The trouble is that you don't want to have to open them opening in your web browser every time you double click them - you want to open them with a great text editor like BBEdit, so you change the files type and creator codes so that when you double click on your text files they open straight into BBEdit. You're not changing anything about the actual file, just what program the Finder thinks they were made with. Mini Conversion is also compact so that you can leave it running in the corner of your monitor while you work :) Batch conversion - drop folders onto Mini Conversion to convert the contents.
