This would be part of Apples' development tools for OS 9. Apple doesn't have them for download any more, but there are tons of old developer CD's floating around out there. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

TomeViewer lets you see what the file looks like, I.E. contents, order of various items, etc. Since it's "Just a file of information", I would start 'building my own". See if you can find a 'file viewer/ editor' that will let you use an existing 'tome' rather than 'starting from scratch. There are 'file editors'' out there that are pretty resourceful reading 'specialized' formats. Bruce Johnson seems to think highly of "TextWrangler". There may be others also.

I found TomeViewer, but it's just a tool to install individual files, not to edit Tomes, much less build them, I'm looking for the same OS 9 tools, used by Apple to make Install Tomes for install CDs.
