Do a 'list' command and check for a line like: tools.info 934 ----rwed 10-Mar-90 21:02:21 ^ ----------------------------------------| If that 'd' is missing, then the 'snapshot' function won't re-write your icon file with the new screen locatons. Use the Protect command (I *think* - I use SKsh, and it has 'chmod' ) to set the delete protection bit ON. Then the snapshot _should_ work. Hope this does the trick! > >-- >< Josef Egloff | USENET: josef@augs.ccs.imp.com > >< Pfaffnernweg 19 | PATH: impch!accsys!augs!josef > >< CH - 4852 Rothrist | > >< Switzerland | AUGS: as SYSOP (acc #1) > -- ----------------------------- |\ | | | Become an | uunet!digi!woodwrk!dick |/ick |/\|ood | ORGAN DONOR | dwood@digi.lonestar.org ----------------------------- --

It refuses to come up where I want it to. The strange thing is, it used to come up in one place (a place I liked) but all of the sudden it started comming up in a different place (a place I don't like). Soooo, I would also appreciate any help with this.

Can someone please tell me what Arexx is ? Is there an implementation guide available ? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff S. Dickson jdickson@jpl-mil.jpl.nasa.gov

Dickson jdickson@jpl-mil.jpl.nasa.gov AREXX is an implementation of the REXX language for the Amiga. Essentially, it is a scripting language that allows you to control those applications that have "an AREXX port". This offerse several benefits to you. 1) A consistent base set of instructions common across all the applications. 2) An easy way to cause several programs to interact with each other, share data, etc. AREXX is now part of OS 2.0, and the 2.0 documentation set contains a section on AREXX. If, on the other hand, you do not want to wait for 2.0 to get started with AREXX, I believe that the original implementor of AREXX, Bill Hawes, still sells his original version of it. William S.
