==Features== Apple introduced many features that were missing from the previous version, as well as improving overall system performance. This system release brought some major new features to the Mac OS X platform: * '''Performance enhancements '''β Mac OS X 10.1 introduced large performance increases throughout the system. * '''Easier [[Compact disc|CD]] and [[DVD]] burning '''β better support in [[Finder (software)|Finder]] as well as in [[iTunes]] * '''DVD playback support '''β DVDs can be played in [[Apple DVD Player (software)|Apple DVD Player]] * '''More printer support (200 printers supported out of the box) '''β One of the main complaints of version 10.0 users was the lack of printer drivers, and Apple attempted to remedy the situation by including more drivers, although many critics complained that there were still not enough. * '''Faster 3D ([[OpenGL]] performs 20% faster) '''β The OpenGL drivers and handling were vastly improved in this version of Mac OS X, which created a large performance gap for 3D elements in the interface, and 3D applications. * '''Improved [[AppleScript]] '''β The scripting interface now allows scripting access to many more system components, such as the Printer Center, and Terminal, thus improving the customizability of the interface. As well, Apple introduced [[AppleScript Studio]], which allows a user to create full AppleScript applications in a simple graphical interface. * '''Improved filehandling''' - The [[Finder (software)|Finder]] was enhanced to optionally hide [[file extension]]s on a per-file basis. The [[Cocoa (API)|Cocoa]] API was enhanced to allow developers to set traditional Mac [[OSType|type and creator]] information directly without relying on Carbon to do it.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/cocoa/38552-mac-os-10-1-file-name-extension-guidelines.html|title=Mac OS X 10.1 File Name Extension Guidelines - Cocoabuilder|website=www.cocoabuilder.com|access-date=May 5, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170702023110/http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/cocoa/38552-mac-os-10-1-file-name-extension-guidelines.html|archive-date=July 2, 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> * '''[[ColorSync|ColorSync 4.0]]''', the [[color management]] system and API. * '''[[Image Capture]]''', for acquiring images from [[digital camera]]s and [[image scanner|scanners]]. * '''Menu Extras''', a set of items the user can add to the system menu, replacing the supplied Dock Extras from Mac OS X 10.0 Cheetah.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Mac OS X 10.1 - Page 9 - (10/2001)|url=https://archive.arstechnica.com/reviews/01q4/macosx-10.1/m-macosx-10.1-9.html|access-date=2020-11-18|website=archive.arstechnica.com|archive-date=May 7, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220507130522/https://archive.arstechnica.com/reviews/01q4/macosx-10.1/m-macosx-10.1-9.html|url-status=live}}</ref> ===Applications found on Mac OS X 10.1 Puma=== * Address Book * AppleScript * [[Calculator (Apple)|Calculator]] * Chess * Clock * CPU Monitor * [[DVD Player (macOS)|DVD Player]] * Image Capture * [[iMovie]] * Internet Connect * [[Internet Explorer for Mac]] * [[iTunes]] * Mail * Preview * Process Viewer (now Activity Monitor) * [[QuickTime Player]] * Sherlock * Stickies * System Preferences * [[StuffIt Expander]] * TextEdit * Terminal
