Marathon Map Utilities

Enclosed you will find the Marathon Map Utilities (parts 1 & 2). These utilities will aid you in the use of Marathon and third-party maps. Enclosed you will also find a folder with copies which you can add the path of YOUR Marathon folder so that the launching is easier. See disclaimer below about distributing modified copies. NOTE: The enclosed programs REQUIRE AppleScript 1.1 or higher AND the Finder Scripting Extension (if you have System PRO or 7.5.x or higher, your fine! :-) ). Marathon Map Util (1): When you want to open a third-party map with Marathon, but you don't want the hassle of renaming the Marathon Map file and moving the third-party map into the same folder as Marathon, you use this program. Simply drag a COPY of the third-party map on top of the Marathon Map Util (1) program (which REQUIRES AppleScript and the Finder Scripting Extension) and you will be prompted for the path of the Marathon Folder. Simply locate the folder, click the button at the bottom of the box, and your map will be opened using Marathon. Marathon Map Util (2): When you want to return Marathon to its original mode in regards to the use of maps, use this utility. Simply drag the third-party map file which is located in your Marathon Folder on top of the Marathon Map Util (2) program (which REQUIRES AppleScript and the Finder Scripting Extension) and you will be prompted for the path of the Marathon Folder. Simply locate the folder, click the button at the bottom of the box, and your map will be deleted, and your original Maration map file will be renamed.
