You are an Apple Computer faced to Wintel hordes. Move your Mac around at the bottom of the screen using your arrow keys, and fire your weapons at the advancing hordes of substandard PC clones that are invading your world. At each level, the PC horde moves faster and faster. Flying saucers drop bonuses and death marks from the sky: avoid the Microsoft and Intel marks, and rush to collect the Apple and Motorola ones. This update includes better FS handling and more bonuses. In addition, the game is a little harder, and graphics have been enhanced. This update correct a bug that make PowerMac G3 to run µWar too fast and add background screens adapted from Apple's ads.

Trash Bag creates and maintains a folder that looks like a bag in front of your desktop trash can. Use it as the destination folder for encoded Internet downloads, Web browser cache files, or anything you doubt you'll need tomorrow, and Trash Bag will put them in the Trash automatically. Unlike the "real" Trash, your Trash Bag folder lets you open what's inside it, and you can access it through standard file dialogs. It's also great for making a temporary backup copy of a document before editing - just Option-drag it to the bag. Tomorrow, when you no longer need it, it'll be in the Trash. Version 1.2.1 adds compatibility with Mac OS 8.0, and offers some visual feedback to show you that it's working. Version 1.2.2 fixes a very minor bug. This program is part of the AWOL Utilities 1.4 package, which includes the following programs: Virtual Desktop 1.9.1, Maybe 1.5.2, Help on Wheels 1.3 (and HoW Developer's Kit 1.3), PictPocket 1.3.2, Menu Events 1.3.1, Menu Grabber 1.3.1, Trash Bag 1.2.2.

It reports and corrects errors that cause HTML pages to render incorrectly, and that are difficult to find by eye. It also checks links, both local, FTP- and HTTP-based links. FEATURES: ========= - Displays the text of the open file and highlights the exact location of errors. - Checks local as well as Internet links (that is, HTTP and FTP -- no other program does this). - Checks the case of local links to ensure they are UNIX-safe in addition to being Mac-safe, which is not done even by programs that "specialise" in HTML link checking. - Obtains the document base URL from the file's Finder comment. No other program does this. - Lists up to 8192 errors in HTML documents. Explains why PageInspector reported the error, and how you can correct it (or even have PageInspector correct it for you.) - Contextual menus provide shortcuts to commands (even in pre-MacOS 8 systems). - Complete AppleScript support, including a scripts menu. Full scriptability lets you extend PageInspector's automatic error corrections, and select errors in your favourite text editor for correction. - Uses a modern MacOS 8 3D platinum interface. - Many preferences offers full customisation of PageInspector's behaviour. PageInspector works on all Macs running System 7 or later. It is accelerated for Power Macintosh. Open Transport and a Power Macintosh are required for Internet link checking.
