Kiosk 1.4b8
Kiosk - Basic security utility, similar to Apple At Ease more>>
It provides basic security features, including multiple authentication methods (using plug-ins), three user levels (normal, guest, and admin), the ability to allow only specified applications to run, event logging, reauthentication (is that a word?) after a specified amount of idle time, etc. Note that although Kiosk provides some security, it is not the ultimate hard disk/file security package for the Mac, nor is it meant to be.
Enhancements:
- Fixed bug where some objects were not getting initialized at startup.
- Can now specify control panel applications (creator code APPC) as well as FileSharing as permitted applications.
- Added "Permit Control Panels and Extension" option if you dont want to add individual files to the permitted apps list.
- PPC version of Kiosk no longer patches ExitToShell but instead uses a CFM termination routine.
- Kiosk now shuts down rather than restart the Mac if it fails during initializing, e.g., if no preferences file exists.
- Kiosk no longer restarts (or shuts down) if it fails during initialization but the Finder is already running.

Presentation Mode 1.0 is a full featured and advanced software which can help you give a good presentation.
The problem: Whenever you are giving presentations, the display or the machine would go to sleep on you, causing the projector to go blank. It was a pain to change the Energy Saver settings to prevent this. Even if I did remember, you often forgot to change them back to a more normal mode.
The solution: An AppleScript to wrap the UNIX "pmset" command and provide a convenient toggle between Presentation and Normal settings.
If you're giving a presentation (on power or on battery), this script sets the display and the machine to never go to sleep, but allows the disk to shut down after 10 minutes of activity and run the internal screen at a lower brightness level when you're on battery.
If you're in normal mode and running on battery, this script sets the display ot run at a lower brightness and to shut itself off after 1 minute of inactivity. The disk is shut off after 2 minutes of inactivity, and the whole machine goes to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity.
If you're in normal mode and running off of power, the script sets the display to itself off after 15 minutes of inactivity, and the disk to shut off after 10 minutes of inactivity. The system will never put itself to sleep.
All of these settings/timings are adjustable fairly easily by modifying the script. This script is most useful if you place it in the /Library/Scripts folder and use the /Applications/AppleScript/AppleScript Utility application to turn on the Script Menu in the menu bar.
Requirements:
- Mac OS X 10.4.x (May work on other versions--10.3.x or 10.5.x, but not tested. Use at your own risk.)
