A Tools folder on the 3DO Tookit CD-ROM contains available MPW tools and scripts available. Many of these tools can also be found in the folders where the related tool resides.

Table 1 lists all tools in the tools directory, provides a brief description, and points to the manual in which each tool is documented. Note that scripts are explicitly marked, all other items are tools.
