Introduction This application lets you create, train, and analyze backprop nets using an intuitive interface. BackBrain also makes it possible to create 3D models of network dynamics using Apple's QuickDraw3D. A step by step tutorial is available as an Apple Guide document (under the Balloon Help menu). You can also turn on balloon help to quickly assess the function of particular commands. System Requirements BackBrain only works with PowerMacintoshes with System 7 or later and with the Thread Manager installed. If you have system 7.5 or later then the Thread Manager is already incorporated, but for former system versions you need the Thread Manager extension. You will also need QuickDraw3D 1.5.1 or later and QuickTime. Fees BackBrain is shareware with a value of $25,-. Site licences will be plus $10,- for each extra copy.

PopChar Pro is the successor of the freeware control panel PopChar Lite by Guenther Blaschek. PopChar Pro extends your menu bar with a menu that shows all characters available in the current font. Select a character from that menu to "type" it into the currently edited text. New in version 1.0.2: Problems fixed: - The PopChar Pro menu sometimes appeared empty under MacOS 8. - PopChar Pro caused "address errors" in some low-memory situations. - The Installer now checks if there's enough space on the startup disk. Improvements: - The PopChar Pro menu uses the MacOS 8 appearance and proper highlighting color when "system-wide platinum appearance" in enabled in the Appearance control panel. - Installer has been made smaller again. PopChar Pro is distributed by UNI SOFTWARE PLUS. This submission contains the PopChar Pro Installer that will ask for a serial number. If you don't have a serial number, the installer will create a full-featured but time-limited demo.

You can look at all your textfiles/textclippings just with a few mouseclicks ! Attention: TextInspector ONLY displays textfiles and textclippings. It does not even attempt to display other files ! TextInspector has some other nice features (e.g. quick renaming of text clippings to something more meaningful than "text clipping"). If you primarily rely on a texteditor or Nisus Writer to compose text, or if you store a lot of textfiles/textclippings on your harddrive, this stack could be very useful to you. If you use any other Wordprocessor, you will not even SEE your files in TextInspector. In this case you (probably) do not need this stack. TextInspector makes extensive use of many great Freeware XCMDs and XFCNs. Credits to their authors inside the documentation. What is new: 1) TextInspector now comes in two different versions, one for 14 inch screens (640 x 480) an one for bigger screens (832 x 640). 2) Option-click on the "Print" button now prints the text with the creator application. 3) Some minor enhancements. Requirements: Hypercard(Player) 2.2 or newer. A 13 inch screen (640 x 480) or larger.

It's called Ultimate X Windows, and it's up to version 2.0b1. It should replace ANY previous version of Ultimate X Windows you might have in you archive. This is a TOTAL redo from Ultimate X Windows 1.0b1. 1.0 only had a one beta version and never did recieve a final version before I updated it. Now this scheme uses red (active windows) and blue (inactive windows) colors. It's much closer to X Windows also, including scroll bars, scroll thumbs, close boxes, etc. Kaleidoscope does have limitations, but I didn't want to have to create my own WDEF, so there are some differences between this scheme and X Windows. Please read the read-me file (which should be included with this scheme) for more information. All updates will be posted IMMEDIATLY to my WWW site. Thank you Peter J.

It's called Ultimate NeXT, and it's up to version 1.0b4. It should replace ANY previous version of Ultimate NeXT you might have in you archive. Ultimate NeXT is based on the NeXT Step OS, and currently it's about as close as you can get to having the NeXT Step OS on you mac using Kaleidoscope. No WDEF's or hacks are used, so there are some changes to make the scheme work for a Mac. The biggest change is the reversal of the close box and window box, and the addition of the window shade widget. Other than that, it's a very close reproduction to the NeXT Step OS.

There is nothing to configure (unless you want to use ResEdit - see below), so just toss it on your system folder and see something useful during that startup delay - not to say that startup screens can not be tasty. If you can use ResEdit, here are some tips: There are ca. 1000 German quotes you may want to remove if you don't speak the Kraut language - most of you probably don't. To do so, just remove the "STR#" resources whose names begin with "D" (for Deutsch). Check out the QPOS resource. It determines where the quote is displayed and how the text grows. There are comments in the resource itself on how to use it. There are only three fields, so you can not muck much up. V1.3: You can now set the sequential flag in the QPOS resource to have GQ display quotes sequentially instead of randomly. Although the randomness has improved in V1.3 as well. V1.4: GQ now searches your System Folder for "StartupScreen N" where in is a digit 0 to 9. If it finds a PICT or PICT resource in these files, they will be drawn on the respective monitors. V1.5 Unquote now has a 'QFNT' resource that allows you to set the text font, style and size of the quote. Unquote is FreeWare and may be distributed any how and anywhere as long as this document accompanies it.
