From: "David H M Spector" <SPECTOR@NYU-CMCL1.ARPA> Unfortunately the lock bit just means the file cannot be deleted, other than that, you may do anything in creation to it. Maybe the new finder, when it comes out, will make things better...perhaps the bozo bit will/could be used as a secondary lock bit?? On a completely different subject... .. I was thinking the other night, what in the *world* is Apple gonna do with all those pages in Newsweek??? Hmmm, somehow I don't think we're gonna see lots (43 pages did someone say a while ago?) of cutsie Mac & Apple //e ads. I know I will get ill if I see that many of'em. Since there's only a week and a half till the 7th, wanna start some hopeful speculation/guessing/ etc and so forth? BTW, Assimilation said that Apple asked them not to release their spelling checker for another 2 weeks, as of this monday, sooo.. Dave. (I hope they at least announce the new finder and a hard disk, I have been looking for justification to drop some bucks on a new toy...and Tecmar doesnt yet cut it...) -------
