Respond! is a control panel that brings a limited form of preemptive multitasking to the Macintosh right now. And itruns on any Mac, 68k or PowerPC, with System 7.0 or later. No more waiting for MacOS X or Rhapsody

Even inMac OS 8, if you hold down a menu in the Finder, processes will not continue in the background. With Respond!, youcan be holding down a menu (particularly useful with Sticky Menus in Mac OS 8), or clicking in a the zoom or closeboxes (or the WindowShade collapse box in Mac OS 8), or dragging a window or the thumb of a scroll bar, andprocesses will continue in the background.

Power Windows 2.4.5: Power Windows is a small control panel that lets you tap into your Mac's unused processor power to perform amazingly cool effects with windows and menus (so I guess I should really call it "Power Windows and Menus", or maybe "Greg's Power Stuff").

Thumb-View 1.1: Thumb-View v1.1 is an easy-to-use menu system.

Scroll Thumb Selector 1.0: Though it is not listed in the Appearance control panel, the Finder does support proportional thumbs (which is the way it should be anyway).
