About

This is an AppleScript which automates the process of putting the Eudora settings on a disk. For those who aren't already aware, this is a way that multiple users can use a single application without reconfiguring the settings and without compromising privacy. Is Eudora wonderful or what!? You could just copy the settings folder to a disk, except that this script also prompts users for their e-mail address and real name, filling in the blanks for them, so that they never have to get into the settings dialog. It also uses a settings file that has been renamed to something more obvious. It was designed to make life easier for lab administrators who have multiple e-mail users using their machines. It includes the following features: Will not allow saving the settings on the hard drive Checks e-mail address for illegal characters Administrators only need to know how to configure Eudora. No AppleScript knowledge is required Renamed Settings file for ease of use Simple Read Me for users It requires: Scriptable Finder -- comes with System 7.5 Eudora 1.5.x Stuffit Expander 3.5 or higher Contents of the archive: The script Eudora settings folder stuffed and renamed Read me file You can also access the script and the most up-to-date Read Me from my homepage below. It is freeware, but it'd be nice to get e-mail from satisfied (and dissatisfied) users!
