Release 2.0.0 Details:
New Features
. displays PICT/PNTG files 'PowerLock TimeOutScreen' and 'PowerLock StartUpScreen'
. can be licenced to individuals & displays persons name on startup
. if more than a specified period of time elapses, automatically shuts down
. if we had a shutdown prior to current launch, only allow one attempt at password
. support for up to five different users
. four sound effects added
. colored all resources - used objects wherever possible but had to use color bit maps
in many places to get decent effects - these consume huge amounts of disk space!
. PowerLock Extension - checks if PowerLock was bypassed at startup
. SuperSecurity™ features: locks a disk on shutdown, added bootblock modification support, simple Finder Rename startup security
. fully customisable preferences
. includes an FKEY and DA that launch PowerLock (and keep track of where it is located
on your hard disk)
. System 7 support including balloon help, aliases, new launch mechanisms, new
folders, new DA suitcase file format etc (AppleEvents not yet supported)
. Add-On Technology™ Support - complete open architecture which allows extensions
to PowerLock and includes a range of callback services provided by PowerLock itself
- includes example add-ons such as a working add-on (& source) which restricts
access to certain times of the day
. Timed password feature - licenced users can write for a passkey applicable at a
certain date and time
Enhancements
. greatly expanded the range of activities recorded in the log file
. can no longer get 'about box' by clicking icon on startup dialog
. made 'Reset PowerLock' a real button rather than option clicking Change
. now puts messages in the version box instead of obscure icon hilighting!}
. no longer gives a warning before shutting down on 3rd attempt
. now resets PowerLock when option key is used to initialise
. can only use option key to initialise if PowerLock has not been run before
Bug Fixes
. Fixed bug in writing ShutDown indicator resource - wouldn't indicate if it had been
shut down when next started up
. Optionclicking any button would reset PowerLock
