ACTION WYSIWYG 1.0.3 lets you customize your Font menu the way you like it, grouped the way you want, in a unique multi-column menu. The update fixes a problem that would cause crashing in Adobe Illustrator 9.

Update: The control panel and extension file version number is still listed as 1.0.2 - at least for some users. Kevan Staples found that his extension was updated to 1.0.3.

Update: Stephen Hart notes that the 1.0.3 version appears to have fixed a problem where selecting menu items in AppleWorks 6.0.4 would cause a crash if WYSIWYG 1.0.2 was enabled.

AutoCat 2.9.1 catalogs all your removable volumes by using aliases.
