Required OSAXen: File I/O (From the Script Tools Suite), File Commands,
Numerics, String Commands, Scripting Components (from Apple), ACME Script
Widgets (required to sort the list -- comment the relevant lines).
This applet transforms Anarchie and Fetch bookmark files into HTML files.
It saves the result as a random-named file on the desktop (if any of you
can improve on this, you are welcome).
To use, drop a bunch of Anarchie and/or Fetch bookmark files on the applet.
You can also drop a mixture of the two.
Changes since v.1.0: added support for Fetch files. Made some nicer HTML.

Subject: AutoDialer 1.1
AutoDialer is a utility designed to automatically dial numbers at a
specified time
and say something through Speech Manager. The computer dials and speaks
through the computer's built-in speakers, eliminating the need for a modem.
Version 1.1 adds several new options when dialing, automatically converts
letters to numbers, and allows you to choose how many times to repeat the
message.
#### BINHEX dans-inter-slip-scripts-14.hqx ****
From: Dan Cottler, darmok@voicenet.com
Subject: Dan's InterSLIP Scripts 1.4
"Dan's InterSLIP Scripts" is a freeware package containing various
InterSLIP scripts and detailed step-by-step installation instructions.
The "Generic Modem Driver" script fully supports just about any type
of modem. It recognizes the basic extended result codes and will
redial when a busy signal or carrier drop occurs. It is far superior
to InterSLIP's built-in "Hayes Compatible" setting. The instructions
include recommended initialization commands for many modem models.
The "Generic Gateway" script fully supports a number of SL/IP hosts,
including The Internet Adapter (TIA). It will catch carrier drops
that occur during the sign-on process, and it properly obtains and
sets the IP address assigned by the host.

#### BINHEX fetch-o-matic-21.hqx ****
From: film2@emedia.net
Subject: Fetch-O-Matic 2.1 automated website maintenance via FTP
Fetch-O-Matic (v 2.1) is a new approach to automated website maintenance
via FTP. Fetch-O-Matic allows web authors to freely create and update files
locally without needing to keep track of their work, and then automatically
catalog the alterations and update the website.
Fetch-O-Matic differs from other available synchronization and maintenance
schemes in that it does not require any local machine to have a complete
site copy. For example, one might decide to grab a few pages and change
them (and/or add some new files) from a Powerbook. Later, the site copy on
the primary machine can be quickly brought up-to-date with just two clicks
- without having to remember what was changed or open the Powerbook.
Fetch-O-Matic is extremely easy to use. Novice web authors in search of a
simple way to update a personal web page won't be intimidated by its power.
Experienced hands will find that previously dreaded operations such as
multi-file search and replace, with the subsequent headache of tracking
down and uploading scattered altered files, are rendered painless. Transfer
errors such as uploading/downloading to the wrong directory are a thing of
the past. If several people are maintaining a site they are protected from
treading on each other's updates.
Fetch-O-Matic was conceived and developed to fill a need in servicing a
large site (http://www.filmscouts.com). Uploads and downloads of thousands
of files at once have been performed with ease. But even on a site with
just a few pages, Fetch-O-Matic will ease the updating chores.
Fetch-O-Matic requires Dartmouth's FTP client "Fetch", AppleScript, the
scripting addition Jon's Commands, and, optionally, Alessandro Levi
Montalcini's "List Files" (providing a significant speed improvement for
large sites), all of which are readily available online. Fetch-O-Matic runs
on any Mac OS machine with reasonable (8mb+) RAM running System 7 or 8. It
runs in the background. It is shareware with a single-user license fee of
$20. There is a free 30-day trial period.
The complete documentation is available online at the Fetch-O-Matic home
page, http://www.filmscouts.com/software/fom.html
Version 2.1 adds new features (most significantly, continuous unattended
operation and the ability to add to an upload in progress), and works
around a bug in Jon's Commands 2.0.3.

From: EricPRESTO@aol.com
Subject: Internet Logger v. 2.1.1FR
This is the French language version of Internet Logger v. 2.1.1 translated by
Philippe Bonnaure.
Internet Logger v. 2.1.1 is a utility application allows you to keep track of
how much time you spend on your internet accounts. It requires System 7 or
later. It can also be used to track long distance telephone use or to track
time spent on client accounts. First, among many other potential uses,
Internet Logger will provide a convenient means to fully document your
internet connections, including:
- Tracking session times and cumulative use time by day and month.
- Ability to enter complex session rate structures and automatically estimate
session
and cumulative costs by day or month.
- Ability to count down time remaining on either prepaid hours or hours
charged at a
flate rate.
- Optional Log file documenting session and cumulative times and estimated
costs.
- Optionally compute session times by rounding up to the nearest minute.
Some online
services seem to compute times this way. You can check it yourself.
- Allows automatic connection via PPP, SLIP, or operation as a manual timer.
- Allows multiple timers with individual settings. You can keep track of use
of
multiple providers conveniently. Each can have it's own log file.
- Compatibility with Open Transport when used with OT/PPP. FreePPP is also
supported.
New features in version 2.1.1:
Version 2.1.1 adds support for FreePPP 2.6 or greater and allows automatic
opening of internet browser or other application when Internet Logger is
launched.
Timers created with version 1.x are not compatible with version 2.x. Do not
try to open Timers created with version 1.x. Instead, keep version 2.x in
its own folder and create new timers using version 2.x. You may continue to
use v. 1.x simultaneously if you need to time two things at once.
Please post Internet Logger v. 2.1.1FR to: info-mac/comm/inet/conn/internet-

From: runt@inch.com (World Domination Headquarters)
Picks up and expands on Lil'Buddy 1.0. 1.1b1 features the abiity to do
either/both of the following:
1) Open your PPP connection (via MacPPP Scripting Addition)
2) Launch, after opening your PPP connection, any number of
applications/scripts or what not for you. For example, upon opening my PPP
connection, Lil'Buddy launches my Talk Daemon and my Finfer Daemon then
Eudora followed by a script that checks my mail and then filters it.
Lil'Buddy requires that you have AppleScript instaslled on your machine, as
it is a prototype for a forthcoming application. Any and all comments,
suggestions, feature requests welcome as this is a nascent program.

Here are two MacSLIP scripts that I modified from the sample.script that

Subject: Mac to Mac SLIP scripts
This is something I hacked up for a friend, who wanted to do CU-SEE ME over
a plain telephone connection. That is, not having to connect to an internet
provider, and definitely NOT using Apple Remote access, which would mean
loading lots of resources, and taking extra useful RAM. (Which could be
useful for running CU-SEE ME, or any other TCP/IP application). My friend
had no idea about scripting, and I did, so I found a great solution.
What this will do for you, is establish an authentic TCP/IP connection
betwwen 2 macs, using a regular telephone connection, so that you can use
all your typical TCP/IP software. I can't think of anything REALLY cool to
do with this, except for CU-SEE ME. This will only work at acceptable
speeds using a 28.8 bps modem.
I have heard lots of people wanting a macintosh SLIP host. This will almost
do that for you but obviously only 1 connection at a time will be accepted.
I have no relation to Hyde Park Software. In fact, I don't even use MacSLIP.
It seems to be that something like this cannot be done with InterSLIP due
to it's lack of scripting facilities. If you think it can be done, e-mail
me.
I am the author of these scripts and I think they are pretty ingenious.
All I ask if you use them, is to e-mail me and tell me if you liked them,
or even send me a postcard (yeah, I have one already, but keep them
coming!) Also, tell me if you find any other uses for it, apart from
videoconferencing.
Feel free to distribute these scripts, but include the READ ME file. Do not
distibute modified versions. I want to get feedback on bugs and problems,
and keep an updated version on the archives.
Do NOT include on CD ROMS without my consent.

From: ace@tidbits.com (Adam C. Engst)
Subject: MacTCP 2.0.x to 2.0.6 updaters, full set
This archive contains, along with the readme and the release notes, four
updaters. Two are for AdminTCP and two are for plain old MacTCP (for those
who don't know administrators can use AdminTCP to set MacTCP and lock those
settings so users cannot change them).
What's important about these updaters is that one set takes AdminTCP or
MacTCP from version 2.0.2 directly to version 2.0.6, and the other set
takes AdminTCP or MacTCP from version 2.0.4 to version 2.0.6. In other
words, the updaters contained in this archive ought to hold you, no matter
what version of MacTCP or AdminTCP 2.0.x you have. You can also get these
updaters from Apple directly at:
ftp://seeding.apple.com/mactcp/MacTCP_2.0.6/
If you've already updated your copy of MacTCP, don't bother downloading
this file; there's nothing that's actually different in the resulting
2.0.6.
Finally, I cannot stress highly enough that these updaters work only on a
CLEAN copy of MacTCP or AdminTCP that's never been opened or otherwise
modified. You MUST get a copy from your original disk to update (or attempt
the not-guaranteed ResEdit hack that we reported on in TidBITS#256):

http://www.dartmouth.edu/pages/TidBITS/issues/TidBITS-256.html
Please, please don't complain to me if you can't figure out how to get a
clean copy of MacTCP. There's basically nothing I can do to help you other
than provide the information above, in TidBITS#256, and (for people who
have MacTCP from Internet Starter Kit for Macintosh), my Web site (and I'm
getting way too much email these days :-)).

MacTCP Netswitch 2.0
Copyright 1994-1995, University of Notre Dame, Office of
University Computing; written by David Walton (David.Walton.10@nd.edu)
MacTCP Netswitch is a Macintosh control panel designed to automati-
cally reconfigure MacTCP for those who move their Macintoshes from
network to network. Netswitch uses information about your AppleTalk
connection to swap in a MacTCP prep file from a group of pre-
configured prep files. It selects a file based on a) whether a net-
work is connected; b) the name of the AppleTalk zone you are in;
c) the AppleTalk network link specified in the Network control panel.
Netswitch will resolve any aliases to a file server, making it pos-
sible to store some prep files on a centrally-maintained file server;
aliases may be mixed with actual files, allowing a single set of prep
files for both on- and off-network configurations. Although written
for PowerBook users, it is potentially useful for anyone who moves a
machine from location to location. Since it can use aliases to a cen-
tral file server, it can also be used to configure an entire group of
machines by distributing an alias to a central collection of prep
files (provided dynamic or server-based addressing is used). For more
information, read the guide that is distributed with this package.
Version 2.0 is a significant update to earlier versions. Users of
earlier versions are encouraged to upgrade. The price is still free.
Netswitch 2.0 requires System 7.0 or later.
This package includes three items:
1. This README file.
2. The MacTCP Netswitch control panel.
3. The MacTCP Netswitch Guide, in Microsoft Word format.
This software is free of charge, and you may re-distribute it, but
please read the distribution restrictions in the accompanying guide
before you do so.

Howdy,
This is a little application that will alter the MacTCP driver to
incorporate Peter Lewis' patch. You will need a virgin copy of MacTCP,
version 1.1.1 for this process. MacTCP 1.1.1 is not included in this
upload -- it is a commercial product. I also understand that this problem
is fixed in MacTCP 2.03 and the upcoming MacTCP 3.
Please report any problems to igorl@uiuc.edu. Many thanks to Peter for
providing the patch information in the first place and Michael Hecht for
the splendid utility ResCompare that compiled this patch.

Subject: MacTCP Switcher 1.1
MacTCP Switcher is a very simple little program that makes it easy to save
and quickly restore multiple MacTCP configurations. This is especially
useful for PowerBook users who carry their PowerBooks around and regularly
use them with different network connections (e.g., SLIP at home and
LocalTalk or Ethernet at work).
Version 1.1 release notes
Fix the "unexpected error -39" error reported by several users. Detect and
report damaged settings files and damaged MacTCP files. Flush volumes after
writing files to prevent file damage caused by susequent unrelated system
crashes. Improve error messages. Switch from Think C to CodeWarrior and the

can use NET/Mac for their wireless TCP/IP network...
In this version of NET/Mac the following mods/features were implemented:
- Made the 'rebootonbaddate' command more realistic
- Added support for ethernet
(see: the version.c file and the online HELP for the 'attach' command)
- NET/Mac does NOT support the new Buckmaster CD-ROM's HAMCALL
database yet... I am trying to convince Buckmaster that I need
the new data-encryption-method, but as of yet they are not ready
to release a description of the encoding-algorithm...

#### BINHEX ot-configs-as.hqx ****
From: kurita@tky0.attnet.or.jp
Subject: OTConfigs - AppleScript addition to configure OT
- OTConfigs is an AppleScript scripting addition.
- It allows you to switch configurations of OpenTransport without having
to open the Control Panels, such as TCP/IP, and PPP.
For instance, if you have a configration "HyperNet" defined in your
TCP/IP control panel, you can write a script like this:
change config of OT_TCP to "HyperNet"
When you execute the above script, TCP/IP configuration gets changed
to the one named "HyperNet".
- The package contains sample AppleScripts, so you can start using it by
just entering the names of configurations you defined in your
OpenTransport Control Panels.
- Very useful if you are a client of mulptiple PPP connections because
you can change TCP/IP and PPP configurations, and then start initiating
a PPP connection by just one action.
- $10 shareware. (payable online)
Changes from the last version:
No code change. Mior changes in ReadMe files.
System requirements:
- AppleScript
- OpenTransport

Subject: BitSURFR QuicConfig v1.0.5
Quicomm's BitSURFR QuicConfig application provides you with the easiest way
to get your BitSURFR Pro up & running with your Macintosh!
Why struggle through all the parameter settings of your BitSURFR Pro
through AT Commands when you can simply select settings through popup
menus and edit boxes? Save settings in profile documents. Build protocol
setup strings with the Protocol Window. And upgrading your BitSURFR
Pro's firmware is a breeze with QuicConfig's built-in Y-Modem G
function. We even provide you with the link to Motorola's site where you
can immediately download the latest firmware!
You don't even have to set the port configuration. Just launch QuicConfig
and it will automatically find your BitSURFR Pro and download the current
switch and protocol configurations.
QuicConfig can be run in demonstration mode before choosing to register.
System requirements:
* System 7.0 or later
* Any Macintosh (680x0 or PowerPC)
* 1 MB free RAM
* Motorola BitSURFR Pro ISDN Modem
For screen shots of QuicConfig, please visit Quicomm's Web site at

P.S. BitSURFR is not a typo. That is Motorola's name for their ISDN
Terminal Adapter.

From: adam@iag.tno.nl
Subject: NET/Mac2.3.65.sea.hqx
NET/Mac v2.3.65 was born...
For those who don't know NET/Mac... NET/Mac is the application that
supports TCP/IP over packet-radio, which means, that hamradio operators
can use NET/Mac for their wireless TCP/IP network...
In this version of NET/Mac the following mods/features were implemented:
- For those that want to override the Macintosh-type that NET/Mac has
reported, there is now a new command: mactype
- NET/Mac does NOT support the new Buckmaster CD-ROM's HAMCALL
database yet... I am trying to convince Buckmaster that I need
the new data-encryption-method, but as of yet they are not ready
to release a description of the encoding-algorithm...
The old CD-ROM's remain fully supported...
The latest version of NET/Mac can be downloaded from my homepage:
http://www.caiw.nl/~adam
This version obsoletes all versions of info-mac/comm/inet/conn/radio-net-mac
in the Sumex-Aim.stanford.edu (and it's mirror-) archives.
It also replaces /pub/mac/_communicatie/_internet/radio_net_mac_23xx.hqx
on ftp.idg.nl.
The new NET/Mac has (hopefully) been uploaded to:
- oak.oakland.edu, to the directory /pub/hamradio/mac/digital
- ftp.ucsd.edu, to directory /hamradio/packet/tcpip/incoming.
If it's not there (anymore), then look at /hamradio/packet/tcpip/mac.
- hamster.business.uwo.ca, to directory /pub/amsoft
- wa2zkd mirrors UCSD's incoming on his Landline BBS. Ham's w/o ftp
can call 716-544-1863 or 2645.
NET/Mac will be uploaded to PI1HVH.AMPR.ORG, directory c:/public/mac.

#### BINHEX server-bot-12r1.hqx ****
From: tjb@inch.com
Subject: ServerBot 1.2r1
Welcome to Server Bot. This application is intended to help internet
based servers using Open Transport and OT/PPP to stay connected to the
internet. The Bot will watch the state of your PPP connection, and if it
finds that the connection is idle, it will quit the server, reconnect
PPP, and reboot the server. This application is intended to replace my
other server based Bot applications(WebStarBot, HotlineServerBot) with
one that will work with any kind of server application.
This Bot is a simple script application which stays open in the
background. It does this without a real interface of any kind. While the
Bot is running, if your PPP connection is idle (or dropped), it will
attempt to log on to your ISP. If you are connected, it will wait
patiently for 15, 30, or 60 seconds before checking again. It is designed
to act without any dialogs that require the user to be present, so if you
want to maintain an active PPP connection while you are away, or asleep,
or whatever...
This release is a simple bug fix. I have, hopefully, eliminated the
need to double tell the Bot where the server application is. Once should
be enough. Second, I have found the "can't set item name" problem and
eliminated that. I also changed the dialog text very slightly in two of
the dialogs. These were all minor problems, but they annoyed me greatly.
System requirements:
1. AppleScript must be installed on your system. This is a standard
part of the MacOS these days, so it should be installed if you are
running any version of System 7.5 or higher including OS8. I will try to
keep it working for as long as Apple supports OT/PPP and AppleScript. The
standard install of AppleScript includes a set of osaxen (scripting
additions). I rely on the standard osaxen, and they must be installed on
your system.
2. You must be running OT/PPP, not FreePPP. In addition, you must
have the PPP Commands Osax installed in your scripting additions folder.
If you did a standard install of OT/PPP, then this scripting addition is
already installed for you.
3. You must have S�ndi's Additions installed. S�ndi's Additions is a
free Osax, available from the usual sources (InfoMac, UMich, the
AppleScript resource sites), or from my scripting page at
http://www.inch.com/~tjb/scripts.html
4. You must have Jon�s Commands installed. Jon�s Commands is
available from Info-Mac archives or from Jon Pugh�s page at
http://www.seanet.com/~jonpugh/

#### BINHEX tcp-cc-11.hqx ****
From: tkelly@sc.edu (Tim Kelly)
Subject: TCP CC 1.1
TCP CC 1.1 replaces TCP CC 1.0.2 (nee TCP Switcher) which is on the
mirrors. OT/PPP CC 1.1 and Modem CC 1.1 are brand new.
This simple control strip module is for use with Open Transport and allows
one to change between TCP/IP configurations without going through the
control panel. If you have more than one way to connect to the Internet
with your Mac (like PPP and Ethernet), you should make configurations for
each method and switch between configurations instead of changing the
setting in the default configuration. In order to use TCP Configuration
Changer (TCP CC) to make changing configurations easy, first set up the
configurations you would like to use through TCP/IP. Use the Configurations
option under the File menu in TCP/IP to set up each configuration. This
module will recognize them immediately. The handy Open... feature allows
one to open TCP/IP from the module if changes are desired to the
configuration.
TCP Configuration Changer is buckware. If you like the product, send me a
buck. I think that there is room for a new form of software consisting of
small utilities such as this that would go under the category "buckware".
Pay a buck, add a nifty gadget that makes life a little easier.
TCP CC requires Open Transport.

Subject: ZapTCP 1.2
Dear Moderators,
I'm enclosing a heavily-demanded TCP utility extension which does
the following:
>The INIT works by installing a system-wide patch which takes control when
>an application quits (or is quit by a forced MacsBug "es"). When it runs,
>the code scans through all of the currently open MacTCP streams and
>connections, looking for those that have their stream buffers allocated
>within the heap that is about to disappear. When ZapTCP finds a stream
>whose buffers are about to become no-man's land, it forces the connection
>closed and releases the stream, posting a notification to the user.
Yours truly,
Marc
