Hello,
Just go to
www.apple.com
and search for itools and you should find it. That's how I got it.

Hi,
Itools has a tab based menu and you can make your selections of
what maintenance activities you want the application to perform. It
is really a GUI app that runs the many Unix Terminal scripts and
commands but you don't need to really know how to run them yourself.
I might also say that this program is really accessible with VO
and the menus are really nice and clean.
If you ever used Onyx, another system maintenance application, you
will really see the difference.

Hello jeffrey,
Hey, thanks for posting the discovery of the itools utility. I
actually like it much better than Onyx.
Thanks.

Hi listers, i found this on apple's download site. This system
utility is called itool and its free. It works a lot like onyx
with a few improvements. When you bring up the program if you
hit tab you find an automate button. This repairs
permissions, runs daily/ weekly/monthly scripts and empties
caches. It does it a lot faster than onyx and with no wierd
messages about being unable to repair permissions because a
file has changed. And its accessible with voiceover.
Enjoy, Jeff Greene
