7 For Seven is a set of utilities (7 of them) written for Apple Macintosh System Seven. They are all separate utilities that have little or nothing to do with each other. They were written as one large utility instead of several smaller ones in order to save the common code that would be needed to implement them all separately. Nevertheless, if you are using System Seven some or all of these utilities will probably come in handy.
The seven utilities are as follows:
1> Set Rename Delay
2> Change Alias Style
3> Balloon Help Size
4> Application Linker
5> Add Quit to Finder
6> Show/Hide Command Key
7> Remove ZoomRects

WARNING
*********************************************
USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!! These are HACKS in the truest sense of the word!! They may not work on later releases of System Seven. I make no guarantee that this will work on your system AT ALL. In fact, Do not use this if you are faint of heart. I make no promise of the usefulness or usability of this program. (If one utility does not work the others still may so test them all separately.)
CREDITS
======================
I did not create any of the hacks used in this program. I did update & refine several but the original Hacking was done by others. So I would be remiss if I did not give credit to the people who actually did the hard work (I am listing where I got the information; If they stole it from elsewhere don't blame me!)
Rename Delay---Steve Kiene
Change Alias---Chris Reed (Told Me What Resource to Look at)
Balloon Help Size---Chris Reed (Told Me What Resource to Look at)
Link Applications---Larry Rosenstein
Quit Finder---Fred Hucht
Show/Hide Toggle---Alex Narvey
Remove Zoom Rects---Discussion on America Online
And a special thanks to Chris Marshall for releasing the code for "Super-Slider" without which I may never have figured out how to make a slider.
THE COST
========
This program is absolutely free. But, if you can get someone to pay money for a program that is free GO FOR IT!!! Feel free to distribute 7 For Seven as long as you include this and all other files that come with it. (If you are going to include this file in a "For Sale" PD/SW package I want to be notified first)
The one thing I do ask is that if you use this program leave me E-Mail and tell me what you think and what improvements could be made. AOL (PeterK29)
(Even if you hated this program leave me E-Mail!!)
LAST WORD
==========
ALSO: Check out my other System 7 Utilities "AppleEase" and my label writing program "SimpleLabel" available on AOL & other fine sources of Macintosh software.
FINALLY: If you are a Macintosh software developer looking for programmers I am graduating in August 92 and will be in desperate need of a job :)
