mactools_3_0a.zip

mactools2.0_images_800k.sit

A utilities and disk diagnostics software package.

The first link is for MacTools 3. The second link is for MacTools 2 on 800k floppies (DiskCopy 4.2 images).

Compatibility:

Minimum system requirements: Mac Plus w/4MB RAM, System 6.0.5.

mrdav: Below are some comments I prepared some time ago about version 2 (I have not tried version 3):
At the time of release (1992) version 2.0 was in direct competition with Norton Utilities 2.0. MacTools runs on a Mac Plus or higher with SSW 6.0.5 or higher, including SSW 7. It seems to require 2 MB of RAM, even under System 6.0.5. The ReadMe refers to SSW 7.0, 7.0.1 and SSW 7 TuneUp 1.1.1 so version 2 of MacTools may not work perfectly with later versions of SSW 7. Indeed, I have found, for SSW 7.5.5 on a 68040 CPU with no additional extensions apart from those for MacTools, that I had to disable the CP Mirror Control Panel to avoid a severe freeze of the Mac (I had to turn the power off) when I tried to open an application. After removing the Mirror Control Panel, the MacTools applications seemed to run OK.
