OS 9 has the nifty utility Apple System Profiler. Does Mac OS X have something similar? I just found a need for it, but can't find the app...
And for folks like me, who can't run the Apple System Profiler because of some font I installed...
You can run system_profiler from a command prompt in a terminal window. I have the full developer tools installed, so I'm not sure if they are required for this ability or not. The full path to the system_profiler is /usr/sbin/system_profiler, so anyone without the dev tools can check and see if its there.
And this leads to my question...
I mentioned a font issue. As I've many fonts installed, and have seen nothing but people's disappointment with OS X font utilities, is there a font utility that works well in OS X and can diagnose font issues in OS X? Two utilities would be ok, one to do fonts ala Adobe Type Manager for OS 9 and a different one for diagnosing fonts would be fine.
