ColorSwitch Pro places a permanent drop down menu in your menu bar that is present in all applications, including the Finder. From this drop down menu you can adjust sound level and monitor settings, control PPP and network settings, and more. The power of ColorSwitch Pro lies in the fact that authors can write plug-in modules for it that allow you to control other aspects of your Mac OS computer from within the ColorSwitch menu.

Version 1.2.0 adds a module for Open Transport support, adds support for "hidden" shortcuts, makes improvements to the AudioCD and PPP modules, offers cosmetic changes, and more.
