Chapter 11. Apple System Profiler

Apple System Profiler is a system program that gathers and displays everything you ever wanted to know about your software, hardware, and networking features, including a few things you wish you didn't know, such as how many extension files reside on your machine. The ASP is located in startup disk:System Folder:Apple menu Items; it is accessible from the Apple menu. A system administrator who is responsible for a lot of Macs could use AppleScript and ASP to print out customized reports on all the machines they are responsible for. Figure 11-1 shows the System Profile tab of the Apple System Profiler. The following dictionary reference applies to ASP Version 2.4.4, which is installed with Mac OS 9.04.
