Just received the new version of QuicKeys from CE Software (Rev. 1.1), free of charge -- I haven't examined it yet, but it seems to mainly fix several MultiFinder incompatibilities, added "recording" capabilities within QuicKeys, an Open and Save set command in QuicKeys, editing of QuicKey sequences *within* QuicKeys, ability to cut, copy and paste QuicKey sequences, and an enhanced Click feature. Some other changes have been made to Quick Access. Also, a note was made that if you own DiskTop (I assume 3.01), they will (FINALLY) have an update that makes it compatible under MultiFinder (i.e. Find and other functions don't cause it to blow up). "It falls under the usual update policy" -- send you license number and $7 for an update disk. I am, because there is no handier DA for me than DiskTop... Finally, Christmas Warning -- Apache Strike came in just before I left home for the holidays (I am currently writing from the comfortable Meyer dynasty manse in Portland, stuffed to the gills with good food and trying out the 2400 baud modem) -- thanks to Tim Celeski for notifying me that the Savings Zone had a couple copies left. This is an arcade game, and has all the positive (exciting, fast refresh, good sound and graphics) and negative (repetitive, no save game feature) features of this category of computer games. It is, however, addicting as hell, especially with a joystick. $28 and no copy protection, so it fits on your hard disk. God help you... Best wishes for '88, blah blah blah...
