Start Jack For Mbox
A free script to automatically start Jack OSX and make it work correctly with the Mbox almost every time more>> A free script to automatically start Jack OSX and make it work correctly with the Mbox almost every time
Start Jack for Mbox is an easy to use script that launches Jack, opens and saves prefs (as seems to be needed each time for Mbox), then starts Jack.
Blasted Mbox... Now this is really just an example of using UI interface scripting to control normally non-applescriptable applications.
System requirements:
- Uses UI scripting, so assistive devices access must be enabled in Universal Access prefpane. If it is not, the script should tell you.
- Jackpilot must be enabled in the Digi Coreaudio setup.

It also provides an easy way to just launch "OpenOffice.org".
Enhancements:
- Fix problem with the "Application.applescript" and "Utility.applescript" scripts being too long to edit with Script Editor - moved some handlers around, removed unused code etc, and created new "ChangeHistory.applescript" file.
- Add support for Mac OS X 10.3.x Fast User Switching feature - each user has a different X11 DISPLAY. Original patches provided by Randolph Brown and others; support added to handle the actual X11 DISPLAY being used at runtime.
- Add Preferences dialog field for the preferred X11 DISPLAY.
- No longer need Direct to PostScript option.
- Add support for handling files with special shell characters and Unicode characters in their filenames. Based on idea by Roger Jolly.
- Add support for checking for updates, using MacPAD.
- Add support for localized MacPAD messages.
- Conditionally support the MacPAD "barber-pole" progress bar at runtime for different versions of Mac OS X.
- Add additional User Defaults, including default "OpenOffice.org" module name.
- No longer set DYLD_LIBRARIES_PATH.
- Check if BSD tools are installed.
- Default "OpenOffice.org" version to "OpenOffice.org" v1.1.x.
- Add support for special handling of "-net" installs and "-net" workstation installs.
- Launch "OpenOffice.org" document (if any), separately, after launching "OpenOffice.org" itself, to work around weird problems when documents have special shell chars in their name.
- Major changes for handling paths and URLs.
- Tidy-up debugging.
- Fix bug with handling fonts dragged to "Start OpenOffice.org" after launch, if "soffice" has never been run (perhaps because of a X Window Server launch error).
- Change Mac OS X 10.1.x hack to be an AppleScript Studio hack for older Mac OS X (< 10.2.3).
- Increase wait time from 5-10 secs to 30 secs and improve checking for "OpenOffice.org" launch, as "OpenOffice.org" v1.1.x "pagein" process can take a long time on a slow machine before the "soffice" process is running.
- Put up "Please Wait..." floating window before time consuming operations; automatically hide the window when choosing a X Window Server or when an error Alert is up.
- Make "isProcessRunning" handler only look at processes for this user; and ignore "zombies".
- Merge French localization resources from Yves de Champlain.

TechTool Pro 4.5.3
TechTool Pro - Hard drive repair & maintenance tool more>>
TechTool Pro 4 now features a suite of S.M.A.R.T tests (Self Monitoring Analysis And Reporting Technology).
Most modern hard drives now support this industry standard that employs predictive diagnostics and analysis to help foresee a drive failure BEFORE it happens. TechTool Pro 4s SMART test allows you to automatically monitor this vital data and be forewarned of impending danger to your data, allowing you to back up critical information before disaster strikes.
The eDrive feature allows you to create an invisible emergency volume from your existing drive. This new partition is created WITHOUT the need to reformat your current drive and allows you to store a copy of your system, a copy of TechTool Pro and even allows you to make room for other utilities.
If you ever have trouble with your main drive, simply restart your computer and your system will start from your Emergency Drive giving you immediate access to the utilities youll need to resurrect your main drive. Now theres no more need for a bootable CD or ancillary hard drive for system drive repair or maintenance.
With the power of Mac OS X, TechTool Pro 4 is now the fastest version of the program weve ever made. With Mac OS Xs native multitasking capability, TechTool Pro 4 can now run its full battery of tests simultaneously. This means that repair and maintenance chores that once took minutes will only take seconds.
TechTool Pro 4 now offers a new optimization feature for your Mac OS X drive. The Mac OS X system contains thousands of files that fragment quickly. TechTool Pro 4 lets you quickly and safely unfragment these and other files so your system runs reliably at its peak.
WaterRoof 2.1
WaterRoof is a firewall management frontend with bandwidth tuning, NAT setup, port redirection, dynamic rules tracking, predefined rule sets, wizard, logs, statistics and other features more>>
WaterRoof 2.1 is created as a useful and smart software with which you can easily manage and handle your firewall, frontend with bandwidth tuning, NAT setup, port redirection, dynamic rules tracking, predefined rule sets, wizard, logs, statistics and other features. With WaterRoof you can set up the IPFW built-in firewall easily and quickly.
With the NAT Setup feature you can fine-tune your internet sharing for the home LAN, or you can also set up a full-featured dual-homed firewall for your network. Rules and network option can be stored and loaded at boot time. WaterRoof is only a frontend so it makes use of system tools: this means that when you have finished configuring/testing your firewall, you can safely delete WaterRoof from your system, without loosing your rules. Bandwidth settings, firewall rules, NAT rules, forwarding, logging and other options will be preserved and activated at boot using launchd, following Apple guidelines. This means that WaterRoof is quite safe because it does not install any strange kernel extension or background daemon.
You can also download and check WaterRoof source code, it's open. WaterRoof can be used to learn how ipfw works: you can use predefined rule sets to test firewall behaviour, or you can use the wizard to start from scratch with a step-by-step configuration. But WaterRoof can also be used to deeply configure a ipfw firewall/router, using every ipfw option including qos (dummynet queues). English documentation included. Source code available at my web site. WaterRoof is freeware and open-source.
