I made this app today after seeing a few other similar things out there. Hopefully I've made something others might find useful. Basically, this is a simple menu item for Mac OS X that performs a few routine functions I'm sure many of us do on a daily basis.
It looks something like this:

Here's the "fine" print:
1) I made this menuextra today, and it's been tested by me and only me (for about 5 hours tonight).
2) It's built and compiled for Mac OS X 10.4+. It may work on earlier versions, but I have no idea and I do not particularly care
3) It is a Universal Application, meaning it will run in PPC and Intel. I do not have an Intel machine, so you'll have to tell me if it does indeed actually run.
4) It uses a private Apple framework (SystemUIPlugin.framework), the same as most menuextras, and I can't gaurantee it will run without the Developer Tools installed. This is the first menuextra I've ever made, so you'll also need to let me know about this as well
The two scripts you see in the menu are written in AppleScript. For the curious, if you right-click on the WoWMenu.menu file, select "Show Package Contents" and navigate to the "Contents/Resouces/Scripts" folder you can open the 2 scripts and peek inside. They are incredibly simple, and do nothing special. Both work for me, but as usual, your mileage may vary. The rest of the app is Cocoa/Carbon -- completely native Mac OS X code.
Anyway, enjoy and let me know if it doesn't work for you. It works on my G5 desktop and my old G4 laptop, and that's all I could test it on. If it does anything funky fill me in on the details.
Oh yeah: please do not mention bots in this thread, as I have no intention of even thinking about creating such a thing. If you really want one go learn to code for yourself.

Nice program reblmonkey , i will test it out soon to see if it works on Intel Macs .
Yeah, please do. I don't know many Mac people who play WoW outside of myself, so my testing is realllly limited.

This isn't bannable in itself, no. The only things that might get you in trouble are the scripts, but that would more likely be a factor of what you do with them. (ie, the wall jump script only makes you jump... which is perfectly fine and normal. But if you go get yourself into somewhere you shouldn't, then that might not be :P)
