Summary: Speak, and it shall be provided

Well, guess what?  Such a bugger exists (to a point).  I downloaded a little
INIT off of a local BBS the other night called " Aask.INIT" -- note the
space and Aa at the beginning, so that it will be executed first at boot-up.
It works in the following manner -- if you boot up with the space bar held
down, a screen showing all the INIT files in your System Folder appears.
You then can (literarly) cross them off, either temporarily (this boot-up
only) or permanently (Aask.INIT changes the INIT's file type from "INIT" to
"xNIT"), and those INITs will not be loaded.  And, of course, you can switch
particular INITs back on at this point, too.

It's from those wonderful people over at CE software, and I'll post it to
comp.mac.binaries first chance I get.

                       "Oh dear... well, if you
                        don't get her to a very
                        powerful Shaman right
                        away -- she'll die."
                                                "We got an Elder God in the
                                                 van.  Will he do?"
