Hi Everyone! Before moving to OS X, I used a little application called Yank. It identifies and lists all the files from a certain application, even those in very obscure places in your hard drive. Then, it lets you delete what you wish.
Anyway, the shareware app (Kagi $15) was developed by a couple named Bill and Lois Modesitt. They have a new Web site, http://www.modesittsoftware.com/ where they offer several other clever shareware programs that will work on OS X and earlier. (They have a duplicate file finder, for example.) Yank isn't listed on their new site, and Bill says there are no plans to develop it for OS X. However, he says you can still get a copy of Yank for earlier systems at > http://www.modesittsoftware.com//download/mac/Yank_3.0.2.sit Jane On Wednesday, July 23, 2003, at 05:38 PM, Allan Atherton wrote: > David Dudine <ddudine at psci.net> wrote: >> I have downloaded and installed Stuffit 7.0.3. ...
