I have noticed a peculiarity in the 1.3 ARP file requester. The scenario is as follows: I have 8 files in RAM: labelled m.1 through m.8 plus the usual directories (clipboards, t, env). I use HandShake v2.12a to request a file to be transmitted and select drive RAM:. The files appear in reverse sorted order (m.8 through m.2) in the requester. In order to get to m.1 I must use the scroll bar. As soon as I do that, the files are re-sorted and placed in the correct order (thereby scrolling m.1 off the top). Hence I must scroll again. This time I can select the file. This appears to be either a bug or an inconsistency as to when the file list is sorted. This will happen with either HandShake or Spritz (both using the ARP file requester). It would be appreciated if somebody could post this to BIX for the ARP team's action. Thanks. .../Ed (EWilts%Janus.MtRoyal.AB.CA@UncaNet.Bitnet) Ed Wilts Sr. Systems Analyst, Canadian Occidental Petroleum Ltd. Calgary, Alberta, Canada (403) 234-1007
