Well ...... Tony - Thanks for the report. I'll try to get Broadcast and look into the matter.

I have tried various combinations of the 30+ INITs/cdevs that I use, and I manage to bomb the machine most of the time. Without Fresh Start however, I never seem to have that problem. It seems like a great idea. However, I use way too many of those INITs/cdevs that "abuse the Mac in strange and wonderful ways" to really consider using Fresh Start the way it is now.

If an application resides on a hard disk / partition other than that which holds the blessed folder, Fresh Start can't be configured to redirect the application. This is NOT a bug in Fresh Start; the Mac hasn't mounted any other hard disks at the time Fresh Start is invoked. But for those of us who have two disk partitions, one for system information (INITs, fonts, DAs, etc.) and the other for applications, Fresh Start can't do one of its jobs. 2. ATM still looks for outline fonts in the blessed folder even after being moved. This is only a problem if you don't have Suitcase II or MasterJuggler, both of which will allow ATM to look in any folder containing open font suitcases. ++Brandon -- Brandon S.
