For example I like to run SunDesk and DeskPict, but they both take HUGE amouts out of my 2 Meg, so I'd like to be able to define a set of INITs called "Small memory" that doesn't have them in it and another one (called "Extravagance" or something) that includes all of the memory hogs. Along the same lines, I'd like to be able to have a "programming" set that activates only the "essential" inits that I just can't live without and also the programming type ones such as Spy. Is there any INIT chooser that allows me to do this? I realise thast INITCdev has a "Minimum" set and the ability to make temporary changes, but I'd like to ba able to automate these a little more. In addition (possibly a separate solution) is there a way to disable MacsBug (by renaming it to MaxBug, for example) with an INIT so that it is not activated NEXT time I restart? Sure I can (and do) do this manually, but being the lazy (and impatient) person that I am, I don't want to have to wait through the delay of opening my system folder and scrolling down the list of names to M (that seems to take forever to come up) Please e-mail and I'll summarise if there's enough response. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Boyd Adamson | My inferiority complex isn't as good ins145s@monu4.cc.monash.edu.au | as yours! ins145s@monu3.cc.monash.edu.au |
