UpdateWasher is useful in a way that after an OS X update, simply double click on UpdateWasher, where ever it may be, and it will run OS Xs built in maintenance scripts, repair permissions essential to keeping your Mac bloat-free and then reboots your system to make sure everything is in ship-shape.
Best of all, UpdateWasher requires no user input at all! Just click OK, and wait for the application. When UpdateWasher is done doing maintenance, it will notify you when its done! This version requires a registered version of Cocktail.
Enhancements:
- This version adds Cocktail functionality and is not an update to UpdateWasher.

Mac OS has it all, almost nearly in the best self maintenance manner it takes care of it self (thanks Apple!) but sometimes the user needs to kick in...

- mostly repairing permissions, after installations...
- executing cron scripts (even with Tiger we still execute them...)
- delete logfiles, jsut get rid of them sometimes, why not?
- delete DS.files, the bother, sometimes?
- delete temp files,
- purge trashes,
