One difficulty with getting upgraded software (e.g. the
finder) via the net is an occasional lack of documentation,
although some recent submissions have been well explained.
Still, some things remain a mystery. For example,
a recent message regarding the finder mentioned in passing
"double clicking on the finder while holding down the command
and option keys", which apparently cleans up the desk top.
While I knew that there was some way to do this, I didn't
know how until I read this message and I'm sure there are
still other features I haven't heard of at all. I rather
suspect this is true of other software, although the finder
is my current interest. Is there some documentation available
for these commands? If not, would someone be willing to mail
me or to post a list of the things they know about? An
available collection of Mac "tricks", such as is gradually
accumulating at SUMEX will be most useful.
