Now with desktop goose!

Installation

You'll need to install desktop goose first!

  1. Clone this repository, and open the script using script editor (installed with MacOS).
  2. Use file > export and save as an application.
  3. Run the application! It's useful to setup 'open at login'

^ I'm fairly confident this isn't the most efficient way to install this, but it works for me.

Use

  • Local IP displays your local IP address
  • Public IP displays your public IP address
  • Note lets you write a note to display in the menu bar, with the option to set a reminder notification
  • Stress test runs a CPU stress test on your mac, by launching 22 instances* of the 'yes' shell command, for a specified period of time
  • Goose Launches desktop goose
  • Hjonk Makes desktop goose honk
  • Speak Makes desktop goose pull out a message
  • Kill goose Kill (quit) desktop goose

*22 Instances have been tested on a 6-core iMac, although these may not be enough for more powerful devices. The number of instances can be changed manually in AppleScript
