It takes much less time for the Apps to swap in than it does to launch then. Right now, I have Mail, Preferences, Terminal (2 of them), Mathematica, Tetris, Librarian and Shell running. It is not too bad having them all open. -- Chris Whatley Work: chari@pelican.ma.utexas.edu (NeXT Mail) (512/471-7711 ext 123) Play: chari@nueces.cactus.org (NeXT Mail) (512/499-0475) Also: chari@emx.utexas.edu
