Well folks, this is my first Mac applet ever! What does it do? Like most people, I wanna make my new PowerMac runs faster. There is this highly optimized Math shared library by Motorola, called the LibMotoSh (checkout http://www.mot.com/SPS/) that will really speed up some of your Math function. But there's a catch, if I use this shared library I can't use my GeoPort as stated by Motorola:
>The following conflicts have been observed when using the end-user version of Libmoto
>for the Macintosh OS:
>
> Several users have reported experiencing a conflict between LIBMOTO and
> Apple's GeoPort Modem. An error of type 15 occurs when Express Modem is
> turned on (usually automatically if the fax software is set for
> auto-answer). Merely LOADING Express Modem does not exhibit the
> problem. Removing the LIBMOTO eliminates the error 15. Just having the
> modem software loaded does not cause the problem, but when using the
> GeoPort modem the error appears.
>
>We are investigating the cause for these errors and hope to have a resolution in the
>near future.
I'm rather lazy to move the LibMotoSh file outta my Extension folder all the time, so I decide to write this AppleScript applet to enable/disable Motorola’s LibMotoSh...
NOTE: You must have LibMotoSh installed and a folder named “Extension (Disabled)” in
your System Folder for this applet to work. you can change where u want the
disable LibMotoSh to be stored by changing my applet’s script (at your own risk
of cost).
This program is very preliminary; they seem to work okay on my computer (a PowerPC 7200/90), but if there are any problems with it, please drop me a line.
Who am I?
I’m just a 22 year-old final year polytechnic student (doing a diploma course in Information Technology). FYI, they never teach us anything about Mac here in Singapore! How sad, right?
Well, most Singaporean and Malaysia can’t afford Mac coz it’s too cosy! Both hardware & Software prices here are crazily HIGH! No discount for student at all!
