Does anyone out there know of a PD or Shareware desk accessory that will let
me do some disk tasks (file copying, formating, ...)? I have a few applications
that do not let me do these things very easily and I hate jumping out of a
program because I forgot to copy a file somewhere? THanks for any
help.

There are a couple of PD or Shareware desk accessories that will do this, notably Disk Manager, X Utilities, and MOBZUTIL. But, I must plug Universal Item Selector III. It will do this and more. It's well worth its price. BRE Software (800-347-6760) sells it for $10.95. Sav-On Software (800-875-SAVON) has it for $13. After just a quick look through ST Informer. -- Ed Krimen ............................................... ||| Video Production Major, California State University, Chico ||| INTERNET: ekrimen@ecst.csuchico.edu FREENET: al661 / | \ SysOp, Fuji BBS: 916-894-1261 FIDONET: 1:119/4.0

It replaces the standard GEM file selector with one that allows you to do all kinds of neat stuff (including that which you need). It also comes with a accesory that calls the file selector for you. This is one of those "must have" programs!! It costs about $15 from any mail order place. Make sure you get version 3. -- Mickey R.
