BisQuit v1.0 --------------------------------------- Copyright (C) 1997 Vincere Software written by Aaron Pulver email: apulver@delphi.com --------------------------------------- *** DelphiWare *** -- Available only on Delphi! Please do not distribute BisQuit! System Requirements: Apple IIgs, System 6.0.1 or later. 4MB memory and hard drive recommended. (But isn't that always the case? The more, the merrier!) --> What is it, and why the biscuit-type name? BisQuit is a Permanent Init (PIF) that modifies the System 6.0.1 Finder... The Quit menu item will appear in the File menu (where it is supposed to be) and the normal Shutdown menu item will be replaced with Restart and a new Shutdown item. Nothing special, but handy for GNO, and more importantly, it's kinda cool. :) And yes, the name IS pronounced like biscuit... Why? I guess I was hungry at the time. :) --> How do I use it? Or doesn't it even work? Install BisQuit in your *:System:System.Setup folder and restart your IIgs. The next time you're in the Finder, the menus will be changed! Of course it isn't permanent... Disable BisQuit, or shift-boot, and you'll have your old, boring Finder back. :) If you happen to have any other Finder patch that moves the Shutdown item around, or adds Quit to the File menu, you'll have to disable or remove it before using BisQuit. (SmartRestart by Eric Shepherd is one example. See Blatant Plug below.) Once BisQuit is installed, and you've rebooted, everything is done automatically. The Finder will find, and the world will whirl. :) - Selecting Quit from the File menu will quit the Finder and return you to your previous application, like GNO (or the System 6 launcher, if the Finder was your startup application). - Selecting Restart from the Special menu will immediately restart your GS. - Selecting Shutdown will, of course, immediately shut down your GS. As with all DelphiWare, if you find any bugs in BisQuit, please let me know! Get SmartRestart today! Besides having many more features than BisQuit, SmartRestart is actively being improved. You want keyboard shortcuts for Restart and Shutdown? SmartRestart has 'em (and configurable, too). Want to turn off the Quit item, or Restart, or Shutdown? SmartRestart will do it! Version 1.2 has just been released, and version 2.0 is on it's way! SmartRestart is Available NOW on Delphi! --> About life... BisQuit was written in 100% ORCA/Pascal from the Byteworks. ORCA runtime libraries are copyrighted by the Byteworks, but everything else is my original code. DelphiWare is the line of Apple II software products available on Delphi. Join us today! We're making Apple II's last forever! Note: BisQuit may NOT be uploaded to any FTP site, distributed on any CDROM or disk collections, or anything else, without my WRITTEN permission.
