Subject: [*] CContextualMenu 1.0

CContextualMenu is a utility class that provides Contextual Menus for
PowerPlant applications.

It uses the Contextual Menu Manager if it's available, and the normal
Mac OS Menu Manager if not.

This allows applications to support Contextual Menus under both Mac OS 8
and System 7, without having to write additional code.

CContextualMenu requires Metrowerks CodeWarrior and PowerPlant.

Subject: [*] CDIconKiller 1.5; disables custom icons on CD-ROMs

To suppress custom icons, install this software.
This tends to speed up the Finder by a factor of about a zillion.

To temporarily show the custom icons, hold down the Command key when
opening a folder.

It works "as is" with Apple's CD-ROM drivers (both plain vanilla and
PowerCD), some NEC drives, and Optima Technologies CD-R Access
CD-ROMs; other drives may be added using ResEdit.

CDIconKiller has its own page on the web:
http://www.kagi.com/authors/fab/cdiconk.html

New since 1.4.1:
  Works with Mac OS 8.
  Updated the docs.

This is freeware, "Share and Enjoy"!

"I know not why, but all the noblest arts hold in perfection but for a
very little moment. They soon reach a height from which they begin to
decline, and when they have begun to decline it is a pity that they
cannot be knocked on the head; for an art is like a living organism --
better dead than dying."           Samuel Butler, "Erewhon"

INTRODUCTION
System Requirements:  System 6 or 7, any Mac, 1.6 megs free RAM, =B11 Meg
disk space

    Digital Diary=81 allows you can keep track of many on-going and complex
projects, with fingertip access to the current status of each one.
Projects can be arranged in up to 50 main categories.  Or if you prefer,
you can use the category level for your projects, and use the next level
down for detailed project subcategories.  You can even arrange your
projects over several separate copies of Digital Diary to add yet another
level to your project hierarchy.

   Digital Diary=81 employs a double entry method, which records all notes i=
n
both a Day File as well as a Project File. A third location, the 'To Do
List', is reserved for certain types of notes that require future follow
up, such as appointments and project deadlines. Digital Diary=81 ships with
note types arranged in two groups. The first group is set to be recorded in
the To Do List as well as the Project File and Day File. Note types can be
changed, added, or removed at any time. An on-screen reminder appears when
the program is opened on or after the date specified for a future event
listed in the 'To Do List'. Each project can also be assigned a status from
a user-definable menu.

   A wide variety of reports can be generated, with information arranged by
project name, status, or note type.  Varying levels of password protection
are available to control access to the program.

Subject: [*] FlashStats 1.3.1; Log File Analysis CGI

Attached is FlashStats 1.3.1, a Web server log file analyzer.

FlashStats generates statistics from any Web server log file. Web masters
who use FlashStats know who is accessing their site, what pages these
users are viewing, and when they're viewing them. Even better, Web
masters using FlashStats can quickly detect and eliminate bad links and
other problems on their own site or other sites.

The twelve different reports FlashStats provides include:

Summary Report -- shows the total number of hits and bytes transferred
Top Pages -- list the hits for each page on your site
Top Referrers -- see where users come from; who has links to your site?
Search Phrases -- find out how people search for your site
Most Common Browsers -- discover the capabilities users have
User Domain Analysis -- see where users are coming from
Types of Domains -- show total users from .com, .org, .jp, etc.
Daily Totals -- see hits over a long period of time
Hits Per Day of Week and Hits Per Hour -- see when your site is busiest
Bad URLs -- are users trying to access pages that don't exist?
Bad Referrers -- do other sites have bad links to your site?

FlashStats can show statistics for a whole site or just a portion of the
site, using one or more log files for input. The Mac version is
preconfigured for use with WebSTAR or QuidProQuo, but a few quick changes
can set it up for any log file format. It's an asynchronous cgi program,
so it can be used locally or remotely; security features are included.

FlashStats is $99; the attached file is a 30-day free trial. More info is
available from:

Subject: [*] QuickEncrypt 3.0b2; a flexible and secure encryption utility.

QuickEncrypt 3.0
Release 5 beta; by David Sinclair.

Drop a file on this application to quickly and securely encrypt it, or
decrypt previously encrypted files.  It is very configurable and has many
features, including support for files of an unlimited length, multiple
worksets, user-controlled password limitations, default passwords,
automatic encryption and/or decryption, verification of validity, the
option of a standard source folder and various destination options,
opening files once decrypted (via AppleEvents), and more.

Shareware, US$25.  You can register via e-mail using your credit card:
<reg@dejal.co.nz> or <dejal@ihug.co.nz>.

The latest version can be obtained by anonymous ftp from ftp.erehwon.org in
the /pub/dejal directory, or via the Dejal Userware Web pages:
<http://www.dejal.co.nz/>.

Requires Mac OS 7.0 or later; compatible with Mac OS 8.

New features and other changes in this release:

o  QuickEncrypt is now a "fat" application, i.e. it runs native on
   both 680x0 and PowerPC computers.

o  Implemented a text-based encryption method.  This works just like
   the original method, but encrypting files results in a text file,
   the contents of which can be pasted into the body of an e-mail
   message, similar to my Dejal Register application.  This feature
   is controlled via the new Method page of the Workset dialog.
   Please give this a lot of testing, to be sure there are no
   remaining bugs with it.  Do not rely on this method until the
   final release, in case it does have bugs, or in case I need to
   change the format in some way before release.

o  Started implementing an archive viewer window.  This is not
   complete yet, but it'll give you some idea of what it'll be
   like when it is done.  It is activated via the new Archive
   Window page of the Workset dialog, and includes a sortable
   list in a window, and two new menus.

Subject: [*] Stefan's "Compatible with Mac OS 8" Badge

I've noticed lately that quite a few shareware authors and developers
have put badges on their websites indicating that their programs are
compatible with Mac OS 8. Finally joining the crowd I've created my own
badge for my Seeker program. Seeker's stability has always been a
strongpoint, so why not?

Feel free to use the badge in your own projects. It's free!

The badge has a Mac OS logo that winks to you, "Compatible with" in Espy
Sans 8 under that, and "Mac OS 8" in Apple Garamond 24 on the bottom.
It's best viewed visually instead of described, though, so if you'd like
you can view the badge at
http://antioch-college.edu/~stefan/whatsnew.html.

Also included is a copy of the badge that doesn't wink. It's not as fun,
though!

Subject: Netware admin from Mac?

I have been put in charge of our departmental network administration
(Netware 4.11, mixed Mac and Wintel clients) and being strictly a Mac user
have the problem that the Netware Administration program only runs on the
Wintel side.

Two questions:
1 Is there a Mac admin program for Netware? Our network administrator says
no-but they don't understand Mac's.
2 Would Virtual PC running Win95 allow me to do this one job from my Mac.

Anyone who is in a similar environment and can offer to help me out would
be greatly appreciated.
