Easy customization of the Launcher

You use the Launcher to quickly find applications and documents, and then
open them with a single click. Now you can add items to the Launcher simply
by dragging them into it.

You can also change the size of the Launcher buttons. To do so, position the
pointer over the Launcher window. Then hold down the x (Command) key
while pressing the mouse button. Pick a size in the pop-up menu that appears,
then release the button.

For help organizing the Launcher, see Mac OS Guide, available in the Guide
menu when the Finder is active.

Mobile computing software

Mac OS 7.6 includes several new features to help make mobile computing
easier and more efficient.

File synchronization

The File Assistant application program automatically synchronizes files
between portable computers and other Mac OS–based computers. The File
Assistant keeps any two files, folders, or disks synchronized—locally, over a
network, or using a floppy disk.

For help using the File Assistant, choose File Assistant Guide from the Guide
menu when the File Assistant is active.
