[comp.sys.mac] StuffIt 1.40A Problems

raylau@dasys1.UUCP (Raymond Lau) (05/29/88)

The following msg. was in response (via mail) to someone having problems with
sit.  to make the bit of information public:
------------
There is a known problem if the "Allow Background Tasks" feature under the
Options menu is checked.

All should work if it's unchecked.

Alternately, 1.40B, just a bug fix for that, is available from as of this writin
g,
GEnie,CIS,MacNET.....  By this afternoon, that'll include Delphi also.

If you do not need the feature, 1.40A works fine if it's unchecked.

The problem occurs under System 5.0 (the collective numbering for 4.2) and
MultiFinder OR the new System 6.0 (collective numbering)

I neglected releasing a fix until yesterday (5/28) because I only had a
beta of System 6.0.  I wanted to make sure it worked with the "real" 6.0 first.

Sorry for the inconvenience.  I'd suggest that ~ryou mail me a copy of
any problems you may have...I do not keep up with news.  Feel free to spread
the information.
