Building A Custom Settings File for Your Mac Clients

I occasionally get asked how to make custom client settings files for TeleFinder. I am not an expert when it comes to that. I actually learned what I know about it from an file called Customizing Settings Files.sea

What I actually ended up doing is modifying Spider Islands settings file. Eventually I borrowed materials from other settings files I came across including sounds that are present today in Headgap's deluxe settings files.

The path to the Customizing Settings Files.sea program info.

You will need ResEdit 2.1.3.sea which is in my Apple (local) folder and should be in the Apple area on the CD.

There are also many settings files that you can use to copy or borrow materials from. Many have cool icons and sounds. They are also on the CD but you can download them from.

I will warn you about Resedit. Keep back copies of your work and keep copies of various stages of your job.

Make sure you don't accidently leave your name and password in your finished settings file.

You must quit TeleFinder client completely as it hangs onto the settings files before and after working on settings files.

I also put some artwork on the TeleFinder CD that shows some example backgrounds for TF client. It is not available on the system at present.

Good luck. We will of course help if we can.



Operator Headgap Systems Opens It's PreOwnedMac.com Store

Being active in the Mac user community and running Headgap.com and TFBBS.com has put different opportunities in front of us from time to time. We recently came across good used Apple 14" Trinitron Monitors at a good price. We bought all of them and now offer them for sale. All monitors have been tested, cleaned, and adjusted. My wife and I both now have dual monitors on our systems. If you have more than one monitor source on your system you should also give it a try. It is nice having my port logs in one window and my web server logs in another instead of having to switch back and forth on the same monitor.

We also ran across a good source of used equipment. We test, clean up, and otherwise optimize the equipment and make it available at below market prices.

We hope that you will check http://PreOwnedMac.com when you need systems, parts and other Mac related hardware. We add items almost daily.
