[comp.sys.mac] 'Disk full!' file. What is it?

    While doing a backup at the weekend, I found a system document called
    'Disk full!' in the system folder, created the previous day. It
    contained:

      an SMAP resource with 256 nulls
      a  PICT resource with all the current entries from the ScrapBook

    Well, my disk is nowhere near full, nor has it been, even temporarily.
    Can someone explain what created the file, why it's there, and if I can
    safely remove it? I didn't have any problems or unexpected errors on
    the SE/30 on the day in question; I would have been using some
    combination of MacWrite II, HyperCard, Omnis 3, Vicom, and some DAs
    (including ScrapBook / DoubleApple / McSink) - although not all at the
    same time. I have a 4/40 system, with about 20mb free.
