[comp.sys.mac] Stepping Out and Multifinder?

myers@vms.macc.wisc.edu (Jeff Myers) (10/25/87)

Here's a question for all you lucky folks out there in possession of the
new System software: In light of the probable screen clutter under Multifinder
with a normal Mac screen, has anyone tried Stepping Out with Multifinder and
found it (a) to work correctly, and (b) to be useful?  Unfortunately, the
Big Screen INIT just has too many bugs / interaction problems to use
heavily, so I'm thinking of "stepping up" to Stepping Out.

On another note, does the DA Other work correctly under Multifinder?

Thanks in advance, Jeff

I don't know, but since Suitcase doesn't allow opening of DAs under
MultiFinder, I have a strong suspicion that Other... won't, either.

  The application DA Tester will work correctly under multifinder if all you
are looking for is a program to use DA files.  It is fairly small and seems to
be fairly bug free.  Unfortunately I don't remember if it's shareware, and I'm
not at my Mac right now.  If anyone is interested in it, I'll try and respond
to any email I get but our mailer is a bit difficult to respond with...

  Hope this helps...
