Well now I have found a way that doesn't require downloading which will do the same on the Mac. Click on the image till the popup menu appears, and "copy image." Open the Appearance control panel and paste from the edit menu. Now granted this only supports 128 x 128 images, but that is a start. I'd be interested to hear if anyone has made a contextual menu plugin that does the save wallpaper routine.

Cast Off is a new preference folder cleansing utility. All those old and junky preferences; Cast Off will remove them. How about all those preferences from all that shareware you download, zap them with Cast Off. Make that mess of sometimes thousands of items into a few hundred in minutes with Cast Off. Why is Cast Off better then others like it? Cast Off has been proven to be, smarter, smaller, faster and even easier to use then others like it. Cast Off has a intelligent engine built in that will identify files like nothing else on the market. To make your life even easier Cast Off includes file and folder exclusions. Also, it can be set to ignore everything except true preference files or Apple preference files. For administrative work it allows the creation of log files for every scan. What do the others have that Cast Off doesn't, nothing! How much is it? Cast Off also fits your budget. With the low price of just $10.00 it knocks those other preference folder cleansers out of the ballpark! Order online with the convience of the Kagi credit card processing service. Is Cast Off easy or what. Why should I care about my preference folder? You don t have to care. You can let it grow till it has 7,000 items worth over 100 megabytes. Why not keep it clean. Now with Cast Off it isn t hard at all. Imagine all those files from those shareware applications you launched and then threw away. Imagine how messy your preference folder could be. If you keep other areas of your computer clutter free, why skip your preference folder? How does Cast Off determine what is orphaned? Cast Off uses two methods to determine what orphaned. First it looks in your desktop database (were a reference to all applications are stored), if it doesn t find anything then it moves on to the second step. During the second step it scans your entire hard drive(s) looking for a matching file. If any matching files/applications are found then Cast Off determines that it isn t orphaned. If the preference fails both tests then it is considered orphaned. What are file or folder exclusions? A file or folder exclusion is a file or folder that is ignored by Cast Off. So if you want Cast Off to skip over a folder or preference you can set it to in the settings dialog. Cast Off comes with a high level of customization ********** ABSTRACT CROPPED ********** [Archived as /info-mac/cfg/cast-off-10.hqx; 837 K] ------------------------------ Date: 7 Jul 2000 From: "Etresoft" To: Subject: [*] Decoder 2.1 Decoder 2.1 - This is a drag and drop program that will decode MIME (Base64), UUencoded, AppleSingle, MacBinary (I, II, and III), and BinHex files.

Diet Sleuth allows you to keep track of what foods you eat each day, and their nutritional value. For each day, you select the foods you have eaten, and the number of servings of each. Diet Sleuth will automatically calculate your caloric intake, fat grams, carbohydrates, fiber, protein, cholesterol, along with sodium, potassium, and calcium. You can select from over 5000 different foods from 21 catagories, including fast food, lunchmeat, junk food, seafood, and baby food. In addition to the included food groups, you can create and edit your own foods in a separate catagory. You can also create a catagory of favorite foods to quickly access commonly used foods. A built-in Recipe Editor allows you to quickly enter a custom recipe, with the nutritional information automatically calculated, based on the ingedients. You may also track your weight, and estimate your percent body fat, and calories burned, along with your projected weight loss. Graphing functions are also available. The URL to download a copy of Diet Sleuth is http://www.blackcatsystems.com/software/diet.html Shareware, $35. Evaluation copy allows 30 days of use.

Every such plant that can be grown in at least three USDA hardiness zones (i.e., can withstand 15 F or below) is covered in the database. It includes fruits, nuts, herbs, and even a few perennial vegetables. Uncommon edibles such as the jujube and chayote are included, as well as popular favorites like strawberries and walnuts. All the plants have color photos attached, often illustrating different aspects (e.g., in a landscape, and a closeup). Edible Landscaping can be used in conjunction with a large archive of color pictures. It expects the photos to be in a folder named "EL Pictures"; it can also be mixed with the photos in one folder. If you have difficulties viewing the photos, try increasing the RAM (memory) available to the program. 2500K should be plenty and 2000K will probably work too. You allocate memory with the "Get Info..." command in the Finder. Edible Landscaping was made with Hypercard, as a standalone application. It does not require Hypercard, or Hypercard Player, as a separate application. It will work on any Macintosh. It does require 2.5 MB of available RAM and 7 MB of diskspace. Displaying the pictures may require Quicktime 2.5--I'm not sure (Hypercard's built in commands take care of showing the pictures--it's not something I programmed). Edible Landscaping was tested under MacOS 7.6.1 with Quicktime 3.0, and 8.1 & 9.0 with QT 4.1. Detailed instructions are available from within the Edible Landscaping software. Edible Landscaping costs $15. Bon Apetit.

How often have you had to bookmark a page just because you aren't sure if you might want to revisit it later? iRemember lets you return to any page you ever visited just by typing a couple of words that describe the page! Instead of cluttering up your bookmarks with pages you might never visit again, you can use bookmarks for your favorite pages and use iRemember to revisit all the rest. iRemember works by indexing all of the words in every web page you visit using the Apple Information Access Toolkit (the same engine used by Sherlock).

Now, even if you use a browser like Netscape Communicator that doesn't keep track of your browsing history, or you switch between multiple browsers, you have one place to go to easily look for a web page you visited on a particular day. iRemember also organizes the pages you've visited by web site, making it easy to return to a particular page at some company, or to just see which sites you spend the most time at. To make it easy to search your browsing history, the Internet or your local hard disk, iRemember will also (optionally) install a system-wide menu that lets you quickly switch to iRemember or Sherlock from any application.

The Japanese Font Package is a collection of Hiragana, Katakana and some special characters that are unique to Japanese. The use of these characters is made possible through a keyboard layout similar to those used in Japan. Rather than using Romanji, each character can be written with the push of a button! The Japanese Font Package includes pictures of the entire Japanese keyboard which have been provided in various graphics formats. (PICT, GIF and JPEG) It is recommended that you print out the keyboard layout and use it to determine which Japanese characters you wish to type. Each key is given a special Japanese character as it's output. The character to the right of the standard letter, is the hiragana or katakana key that will be printed when entered. What files are included with this font package? The Japanese Font Package includes essentially four things: 1. Hiragana Textbook font. This font comes complete with a bitmapped version, a TrueType version, and a PostScript Type 1 version (for use with ATM). 2. Katakana Textbook font. This font also comes complete with a bitmapped version, a TrueType version, and a PostScript Type 1 version (for use with ATM). 3. Keyboard Layout Folder. Inside this folder there are 3 images of the hiragana and katakana layout you will use. These files are all identical, however they have been converted into different graphics formats for easy viewing/printing. These formats are, PICT, GIF and JPEG. Use your favorite graphics program to print out the layout for use with typing in Japanese. 4. This manual! This manual should answer all of your questions, however if you still have questions or comments, you can send email to: inaka@pacbell.net PRICE: Just $15 US.
