SOFTWARE OF THE DAY - APPZAPPER & PERIAN

Hi All, Key Combination of the Day Ctrl-Option-Click Running Program in Dock Pressing Ctrl-Option and clicking a running program in the Dock (or right-clicking the program and pressing Option) displays a menu which includes an option to Force Quit the program. Its a quick way to terminate a program which has stopped responding. Shareware of the Day: AppZapper- The uninstaller Apple forgot. Everybody loves the drag and drop nature of OS X. Drag an app into your applications folder, and it's installed. You'd think it would be that easy to delete an app — just a matter of dragging it to the trash. But it's not. Applications install preferences, caches, and other support files throughout your computer that take up space and generate clutter. Deleting these by hand every time you delete an app is a pain. Introducing AppZapper. AppZapper is for people who want to confidently try new apps while knowing they can uninstall them easily. Drag one or more unwanted apps onto AppZapper and watch as it finds all the extra files and lets you delete them with a single click. A slick safety system remembers which apps you want to keep safe, and the log tracks all the files you've zapped. In one Zap you'll understand it. In two you'll fall in love. Within the five free Zaps, you'll know you need to add AppZapper to your arsenal. Go ahead — try five free zaps and see AppZapper, the Mac uninstaller for the rest of us, in action.
