I am sure that these questions have been asked hundreds of times, so responses should probably go directly to me. If other people are interested, I will post a summary to the net. I am looking for 2 stacks. The main prerequisite is that the stacks be shareware or freeware, and that they are good. I have seen some shoddy recipe and library stacks (some of them just slightly modified versions of Apple's own flashcard stack), and I want something better. 1) A recipe stack. Preferably the cards will allow me to store such information as ingredients, preparation instructions, food type, etc. I envision a stack in which I could do a search on food type (ie Italian, French, etc.) or main ingredient (ie. meat, fish, etc.), and a list of applicable recipes would be presented. If anyone has such a stack or just a useful recipe stack, or knows where one can be gotten by FTP, please contact me. 2) A disk library stack -- this is one which I am sure many people on the net have; after 100 disks, it gets hard to keep things organized. Any leads to good library stacks would be helpful. Thank you. Michael A. Schoen AT&T Bell Laboratories (provided for identification only) mas@ulysses.att.com

Yo! Put me down for a good disk organizer stack, or (real) program! In my year of being a student rep, I have accumulated about 600 disks from various software and hardware companies. (MTU is big in the Scientific and Engineering areas, and I get a lot of this type of software to evaluate.) The ultimate disk organizing program would automatically update the database when you copy and delete files in the finder, allow for sophisticated cross- referencing, and let you enter your own personal notes. But I will take any- thing right now. I shudder at the thought of manually typing in all those directories.....
