StartupItem Manager release notes. Changes in 1.0.5: Format of StartupItem script changed to reflect new format of Mac OS 10.2. There are additional functions in the scripts for starting, stopping and restarting the StartupItem. Currently there is a rudimentary code in the scripts which allow it to stop the running items. However, if you know your way around UNIX you should be able to figure out how to get this done in a better way for specific programs and can then insert the functionality into the script yourself. Existing scripts are not modified or updated to this new format. Older items will continue to work just fine. The StartupParameters.plist format has also changed slightly. One thing to note is that all StartupItems created have the 'OrderPreference' set to 'Last'. This to try and ensure that is your StartupItem has any dependancies that have not been specified in the plist, at least the item will launch late enough that the things it depends on might be available. There are a couple of bug fixes in the way spaces in file paths are handled by the program which fixes problems reported by some users. A big thank you to those who helped identify this. The Authorization framework now handles file paths to tools better. The source code to this framework is avalable as open source under a BSD style license. See www.septicus.com for details. This version is only for Mac OS 10.2, however version 1.0.4 will remain available for users of Mac OS 10.1. Changes in 1.0.4: Extended fix from 1.0.3 to be more reliable. Shell scripts were not getting parsed correctly in some cases. This should be fixed now. Changes in 1.0.3: Minor changes to script parsing. Changes in 1.0.2: Application menu layout clean up. Modified version check and download feature to be more flexable. Added option to check these notes prior to download. UI fix: toolbar toggle button (wasn't checking item state prior to being enabled). UI fix: Main window now lists items whose state (on or off) can't be determined as 'Enabled' since the SystemStarter will run them (they are on by default). Changes in 1.0.1: Fix for possible crash when reading StartupItem Script with bad permissions. Changes in 1.0.0: Initial public release.
