acgi dispatcher for MacOS X
The first public beta of acgi dispatcher for MacOS X now available!
acgi dispatcher is a program that enables you to use acgi programs written
in AppleScript or other AppleEvent aware languages to write cgi programs to
be run with the Apache web server that is part of Mac OS X.
In Mac OS 9 and earlier there was an apple event system to let you do this
with the built in webserver, but Apache on Mac OS X does not support this.
Apple does include a solution to this problem with their Mac OS X Server
product, but people not wanting to make the extra investment were out of
luck.
acgi dispatcher runs as a background process on Mac OS X so it does not
need to clutter your screen with windows and dock icons if you don't wish
to see them. It also has the capability to run and serve pages while your
machine is logged out. Installation is drag and drop and requires no manual
editing of unix config files.
In addition to supporting the traditional acgi AppleScript system acgi

LOCHAWE, SCOTLAND, (1, February 2002) - Quite Software's plug-ins
for Acrobat have always been recognised for their ease of use and
power, saving time and money in a pre-press environment. Now, Quite
Revealing adds a new essential tool to the PDF armoury.
Traditional pre-flight tools are excellent for reporting that PDF
files contain problem elements. RGB colour, excess spot plates,
transfer functions, transparency, TrueType fonts - all these can be
picked up automatically. But in the real world, the story doesn't
end there. The operator has to uncover the exact causes of the problem
- often pinpoint a single graphic or word in a long document.
Quite Revealing takes over where traditional pre-flight tools give up.
Its revolutionary "side by side" view of the original PDF
and selected elements will speed to the heart of the problem. For
example, the operator can choose to display only RGB data on the right
hand panel...

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
PrefsOverload is a full-featured tool for managing the Preferences Folder,

files in which applications store their settings and other information.
After System 7, all these files have been enclosed in the "Preferences

to be completely unnecessary. This can occur, for example, when their
mother application doesn't exist--or no longer exists--on your computer.
Over time the Preferences Folder will slowly grow and may become filled
with files created by trashed demo applications, or applications used for a
short time only or not used at all. The trouble is that all these unused or

to the Znippetizer-X window, and also paste new snippets into it. You can
also edit a snippet in the close up window.

For Immediate Release
Portland, OR - January 23, 2002
Dr. Bott LLC ships their fist-sized, seven port USB hub, T7Hub.

status. These indicators mean you'll never have any questions about the
status of your USB peripherals. T7Hub fully supports seven high power USB
devices simultaneously.

across their desk. Four port hubs are plentiful but they require

MacResQ Launches New PowerBook Repair Service
MACRESQ LAUNCHES NEW POWERBOOK REPAIR SERVICE
Concord, CA - January 24, 2002 - MacResQ announced today the launch of a
unique new repair service for Macintosh PowerBook computers. The service,
known as PowerBookResQ, will provide PowerBook users throughout the United
States with a new source for service parts and labor.
PowerBookResQ addresses the difficulty that most users face when they
encounter a technical problem with their PowerBook. Users of older
PowerBooks face a tough challenge trying to find a local source for older
parts and service. If a local repair center is available, costs are usually
high and turnaround time is unacceptable for users who rely on their
PowerBooks on a daily basis. Users of newer, but out-of-warranty,
PowerBooks often have no choice but to send their systems back to the
manufacturer for an expensive repair due to parts limitations and service
policies.
"PowerBookResQ is the only service of its kind for out-of-warranty
PowerBooks," said Shannon Jean,...
