      The new Background is an entirely new app which provides just so   
      much functionality as I need in a background program.  Basically, it  
      tiles an image on the background window, and goes away when  
      you log out.  Really, that's all I want in a program!

      Bypass
      by Jeremy Slade
      Bypass is a very simple program that can be set up to circumvent   
      your Dock, keeping your auto-launch applications from being 
      launched when you log in.  This is useful when you want to quickly 
      log in, such as to perform some minor task.  Bypass will temporarily 
      disable all of the apps on the Dock (except the Workspace 
      Manager), so the log in process will be much faster.  When you log 
      back out, the Dock will be restored to its original state.
      Includes source code
      Motorola/Intel/PA-RISC/SPARC

      Fiend

      FSCurrentDefaults
      Almost all of your application configuration settings and information  
      is kept in something called the "Defaults Database".  Most of the 
      time a user uses Preferences panels and other controlls to change  
      the values in this configuration database.  But, there are times  
     when a user would like to change a value manually.  
     FSCurrentDefaults is a preferences module that will let your see and 
     edit all your defaults settings.
