Free link software for mac

Reference Link is a System 7-only INIT that makes THINK Reference 2.0 easier to use. With R.L. installed, a modified double-click on a word in a text editor or word processor causes the word to be looked up in THINK Reference 2.0. A keystroke jumps back to the editor. Freeware.

Since CodeWarrior now has its own communication with THINK Reference, this extension is not as vital as it once was. Frankly, I havent looked at it for a couple of years, I hope its still reasonably compatible!

Piltdown is a general purpose HTML link checker. It works recursively to discover links and determine if the objects they point to are missing or relocated. Please review the readme file piltdown.txt for a full description.

Piltdown is written in Perl and will run on nearly any networked computer.

I wrote Piltdown after becoming frustrated with the alternatives. Most link checkers available on the Internet are either incomplete, inaccurate, or both. For example, certain Web servers do not respond appropriately to the HTTP "HEAD" request, so well written link checkers that depend on HEAD will report missing links where there are none. (My testing suggests that these non-compliant servers come from a certain corporation with initials "MS". Why am I not surprised?!) Another GUI based checker for OSX worked well, but flagged all relative links with a leading "/" as errors when they were not. And what about links that hide inside of CSS or javascript files? Most link checkers cant look inside these non-html files.

So there you have it. Piltdown is available for free (!), but please do not repackage or charge a fee for it. Piltdown comes without warrantee of any kind, expressed or implied. That said, feel free to contact me with questions, bug reports, or requests for future enhancements. Like to know where the funny name came from? Read about Piltdown Man, the missing link!

Requirements:
MacOS 7.0 or later, TI Graphing Calculator.

Link Me!/Open Me! is an interesting set of scripts! "Link Me!" will allow you to place a link button to another QuarkXPress document on the current documents layout. When run, the script will prompt you for the document to "link to" and then create a picture box containing an icon on the top left of the current page.

It will also place a text box containing the name of the "link to" file next to the picture box.

Select both boxes (group them if you like) and move them to the pasteboard or wherever you desire. The text box containing the "link to" doc name is created for your convienince and may be deleted if you want since the picture box contains the link!

To open "link to" documents, select the link icon boxes representing the files to open (dont worry if theyre grouped since the script will find "see" them anyway), and run the "Open Me!" script--it will open all "link to" documents. If a "link to" document has been moved to another location, the script will offer to find every matching file and open them. The "Open Me!" script requires the scriptable Finder that ships with system 7.5 or higher.

Please note that Link Wrapper will force Linkification to only highlight part of a text link, version 1.2.2 of Linkification adds a "Thorough Mode" which is disabled by default that will resolve this, or you can just double-click on the unhighlighted text on the right of the text from a link to have it open properly.

Major Features:

1. Statusbar notification of: enabled, disabled, character limit reached or blacklisted sites
2. Clicking statusbar icon will yield opposite of current setting, so you can effectively:
   
   • Turn wrapping off and only click it when you need it temporarily
     
   • Leave it on and when you want to see a sight in long line mode just click it and it will display as-is temporarily
     
   • If enabled and you hit either the character limit or blacklist you can click it to temporarily allow link wrapping.
     
3. Draggable statusbar icon to any position you want on the statusbar
4. Option to hide statusbar icon and hide tools menu "options" menu item
5. Full customization of all current hidden settings
6. Full option dialog with all the bells and whistles, export, import, reset preferences
7. Increased default character limit to 30k characters

Enhancements:

• Minor version bump.

Requirements:

• Mozilla Firefox
