Subject: [*] REplay PLAYer 2.4


REplay PLAYer is a computer program that de-constructs a given sound
file and re-composes it by using realtime composition algorithms - a
field of research that has been investigated by Karlheinz Essl since
the mid 1980ies. With this project, Karlheinz Essl is following once
again his vision of a music "that is composed, as if from itself
(auto-poetic), at the moment of its sounding."

REplay PLAYer can be used as a tool to generate an infinite and
every-changing sonic stream from a single sound file for artistical,
compositional or mere recreational purposes. It can also be regarded
as a computer based instrument for live performances, as an
interactive sound installation or a generator for ambient music.

New features of version 2.4:

* New user interface with waveform display of the sound material
* Improved audio engine
* CPU load display
* Panning algorithm added

System requirements:

* Apple Macintosh G3 computer
* OS 8.6 or better
* min. 24 MB of free RAM (80 MB recommended for longer sound files)
* min. screen size 800*600 pixels

REplay PLAYer is distributed as shareware and can be registered at
KAGI (single user licence: 25.00 USD).

Subject: [*] Suck It Down!


18 June 2001 - R.A.D. Productions, a new MacOS software development company,
today released its new product Suck It Down. Suck It Down is an Internet
utility that streamlines the retrieval of images from web sites.

Do you frequent web sites that have thumbnail pictures that are links to
images or movies? Like Aunt Mildred's photo page, or the digital pictures
from your last vacation? Suck It Down will grab all of those images and put
them into the folder of your choice. It can do this without you even having
to go to the page.

Not only will it download the pictures for you, it will display JPEG and GIF
images as they are downloading, giving you a mini slide show. And after the
download is complete, you can click or key through the images and throw away
any you donØt like.

You give it a URL and it will download all of the JPEG, GIF and MPEG files
that are links off that page. This is particularly useful on pages that have
a thumbnail image and a link to the image.

Suck It Down is available for immediate download from the R.A.D. Productions
web site at http://www.radproductions.NET/. You can also get it through
standard Mac file archives, including the InfoMac archives, Download.com,
and Version Tracker.

R.A.D Productions is a new MacOS-first software development company. It has
plans to create original software, including utilities and games, for the
Macintosh first and other platforms as needed.

Web Confidential 2.2.2 for Macintosh

Web Confidential is an intuitive, easy-to-use program for
managing user IDs, passwords, registration numbers, and the like.

Although widely imitated, Web Confidential is still the most
powerful password manager on the Mac today and is currently
the only password manager which is able to HotSync with
a Palm device using a Macintosh Conduit.

While Web Confidential is suitable for a wide variety of personal data,
from credit card numbers to serial numbers, Alco Blom designed Web
Confidential particularly for the World Wide Web in mind. "Increasing
numbers of Web sites maintain some form of user registration," points
out Blom. "You may not realize it, but in the course of time you may
registered at a couple of dozen sites. Do you remember the passwords
you entered for all of them?"

Web Confidential allows Web surfers to store URLs, user IDs, and
passwords in one secure location. Web Confidential can automate the
process of logging into a password-secured Web page by automatically
passing URL, user ID, and password to your Web browser.

For opening pages containing personal account information at commercial
sites, Web Confidential allows you to automatically fill in WWW Forms
with user ID and password fields.

To ensure the personal information stored in Web Confidential remains
confidential, the program's password files can be encrypted using
state-of-the-art encryption technology.

Web Confidential is shareware.

Web Confidential is available for Mac, Windows and Palm platforms.

Subject: Newer MaxPower & OS X

I was one of the unfortunate souls who bought a Newer upgrade (a G3
500 mhz ZIF) just before Newer bit the dust.

When I first bought the upgrade, there was an OS X (beta) driver on
their site which is now extinct. The driver could only be downloaded
by someone already running OS X and I only recently acquired it so I
never got my hands on a copy of the driver.

I've searched the web but can't find that driver nor do I know if it
works. If anyone has tried it and succeeded, could you let me know?
And if you have it and it works in OS X, could you either direct me
to a download site or send a copy of it to me as an attached file?

Many thanks.

Shari
