CptExpand 1.0

CptExpand 1.00 is a freeware utility to decompress Compact Pro

archives. It is written by Bill Goodman, the author of Compact
Pro. The advantage of this program over Extractor, the other
free Compact Pro decompression utility, is that it is small
enough to run in 512K of memory. Howe ver, if you don't have the
Hierarchical File System (HFS), you will need to install the
HD20 INIT in your System folder. This can usually be obtained
from Macintosh user groups or from on-line services such as
Compuserve.

CptExpand has the same creator type as Compact Pro, which allows
it to automatically open when such an archive is double-clicked
(but it should then only be used if you *don't* use Compact Pro
or Extractor).

FindCursor INIT

The FindCursor INIT is a system extension which enables PowerBook users (and any other users who experience the problem) to quickly locate the current cursor position visually. To use it, you simply hold down the control (ctrl) key and press the mouse button. As long as the mouse button is down, the cursor will change to a thick-border box.
