Leonard Rosenthol on OSA Menu

leonardr@aladdinsys.com says:

I'm sorry for the long delay between b1 and b2 - things got a bit hectic 'round the home front...

But since my wife ran off with a bunch of Girl Scouts camping this weekend, I figured I'd spend some time getting OSA Menu back into shape and addressing some of the holes that I left in b1, and also addressing the System 8 problems!

Although OSA Menu 1.1b2 is now much smarter about Preference files, I suggest that you toss your existing one before installing b2. Can't hurt!

You can find 1.1b2 at the following locations:

ftp://members.aol.com/macgician/OSAMenu1.1b2.bin

ftp://members.aol.com/macgician/OSAMenu1.1b2.hqx

http://www.netreach.net/people/leonardr/OSAMenu1.1b2.bin

For those that are into such details, the following fixes/changes were made:

* Fixed bug where somehow menu icons weren't showing up for IFAM() menus

* Added support for new "OSA Menu Icons" file for storing your own icons!

* Added a bunch of new built-in icons for people to choose from

* Added new pref for what to do with droplet execution

* Implemented workaround for Finder 8's silly AE handling!

* "path to me" now works correctly!

P.S. If anyone DOES use this with Finder 8, PLEASE let me know how it works for you and your scripts. I know that the fix works (I developed & tested it under 8.0b3) but I didn't try all sorts of "fancy" scripts...
