• About This Strip:
What is it?
This is a Control Strip module who's strip icon is pictured above. To use, simply put it into the Control Strip Modules folder and restart. If you do not have a Control Strip Modules folder (located in the root of your System folder) then you probably do not have the Control Strip control panel installed. As of this writing, Apple does not permit me to distribute Control Strip to other people but if you are resourceful, I'm sure you can find it somewhere on the net or from a proud PowerBook 500 owner.
Features:
• Apple Event Restart & Shut Down (as if it was selected in the Finder's Special menu.)
• Finder Active/Inactive (allows you to quit and reload the Finder. Useful to powerbook owners because the Finder is constantly accessing the hard disk and using process power while launched.) Note that if you do not have another application open before you quit the Finder, the Finder will reload automatically.
• Quit All sends quit events to all the open applications. (Note that desk accessories cannot be quit this way.) To quit individual programs hold down the SHIFT key as described below.
• Tip: If you want to perform a "nice" restart or shut down immediatly (without waiting for the open applications to quit) simply hold down the SHIFT key before you click on the popup menu button. The items “Restart” and “Shut Down” will now say “Force Restart” and “Force Shut Down”. The rest of this menu contains all of the open processes and allows you to quit one of them by choosing their menu item. Note that these processes appear in the order that they were loaded.
• FreeWare Info:
This program is FreeWare which means that you do not have to pay for it, no matter how long you use it. “What a nice guy”, you must be thinking, “how can I show thanks to him?” Well, you can send me a postcard from your home town, a CD-ROM, or a Mercedes. Be creative but please, no dead rodents. Send to:
