Did anyone get (or have) a manual for the new ProDos 16 Finder? In particular -- does anyone know how to change the path it uses to find an application when a "data" icon is selected? (explanation: if you select a WordPerfect document it tries to load /wordperfect/wp.sys16; if you select an Appleworks document it tries to load /appleworks/aplworks.system -- wordperfect is smart enough that somehow it also gets the name of the document you selected and reads it in all ready for editing; appleworks just gets you to its initial menu.) That works fine as long as everything is still on the original disks or approximate copies thereof -- but it won't work if you put the applications into RAM or a hard disk, since they can't have different volume names.
