Pkg Info
2.x only. Select package(s) in Extras, select "Pkg Info" in action menu.
Displays information about an application, book or autopart(extension)
[not storage or built-in apps]:
- package name
- *version; (2.x); # parts
- store name: size in bytes (and compressed size if applicable)
- creation date and time
- developer copyright
If you select a built-in or copy-protected package, PkgInfo pops up a menu of package names.
Let me know if this is useful, and what other info you would like to see
(assuming it's available, it fits and I have time). If you have Freeze Utils
(from Standalone), you don't need this -- use its "Package Info" command.
- 1.0g (27 Aug 98):
info about multiple packages
cmd-I keyboard equivalent
- 1.0f (12 Dec 97):
added * before Version if package is frozen
- 1.0e (25 Sep 97):
fixed (typo) error when PkgInfo removed
after version: adds "2.x" if package is 2.x-only; adds number of parts in package
before copyright: adds bullet if package is copy protected
earlier, if you selected a built-in or copy-protected package, PkgInfo did nothing;
now, it pops up a menu of package names (unless you're in Storage or All folders)
- 1.0d (10 Sep 97): minor cleanup
- 1.0c (22 Aug 97):
yet another surreptious way to get the PkgInfo item to appear in Extras menu
moved package name to top/title line (and PkgInfo credit to 2nd line)
store name precedes size, e.g., Internal: 3380
- 1.0b (25 Jun 97): Pkg Info should now appear in menu after reboots (deferred install)
- 1.0a (19 Jun 97): first version
PkgInfo is freeware, and freely distributable. Check web site for news, new versions.
