This is Release 1.00 of BITart's GTools. GTools is a 'shell' application for modules called GTools (you wouldn't have guessed, would you?). It's main purpose is to make all the little helpers in the daily life of a NEXTSTEP user easily accessible from the dock, without wasting several dock slots or memory. The following GTools are available: - DefaultEditor.GTool This is a user friendly front-end for the NEXTSTEP default system. It helps you explore and modify defaults. - Eyes.GTool 'Eyes' are a simple GTool which displays 'Eyes' in the applications icon. Those eyes follow your mouse, and help you find it. It also shows you when there is new mail for you. - HexEditor.GTool With the HexEditor GTool you can view and modify any file in a combined Hex/ASCII view, and modify its contents. - MonsterShelf.GTool This is the 'MonsterShelf' application from Brian Pinkerton, converted into a GTool, with a few minor enhancements. - GKPlayer.GTool GKPlayer enables you to play audio CDs on your Toshiba CD-ROM. You can also mark sequences on the CD and save them to a .snd file. The supported formats are 44 kHz, 22 KHz, Stereo or Mono. - SCSIMonitor.GTool The SCSIMonitor GTool is a graphic front-end to a scsi device driver. It has great value in testing commands on peripherals prior to programing, and has lots of other usefull purposes. Since this GTool requires a close understanding of SCSI and the addressed devices, and could easily damage hard disks, data or other peripherals, this GTool will NOT be publicly available on the archives. If you are interested, please send a request by EMail. If you are interested in writing your own GTool, or converting an already working application into a GTool, request the GTool API by EMail.
