[comp.sys.mac] "Desktop" fast replacement

pst@comdesign.uucp (Paul Traina) (05/01/88)

I read somewhere that there's a new feature in Finder 6.0 / System 4.2
which allows one to obsolete the "Desktop" file.

I have a 100mb hard disk, and when I open up a folder with tons of stuff in
it, everything is *REAL* slow, same thing happens when I copy a file to my
hard disk.

I understand that there is either a feature or someone put together an INIT
that hooks into finder to make it use a new method of storing the desktop
which (a) is very fast
      (b) does not use the Desktop file anymore

Anyone have any pointers as to where/how I can get it?
Please resond by mail, I will summarize for the net.
