   Hello world.
      I wanted to know, does anyone out there have a list of tricks that I
can perform on Mac SI or any mac.  THings like when booting holding down
the Option and Command key to rebuild the desktop.  You know, things like
that.  I really like using things like that.  So could someone E-mail me
a copy or some tricks out there.

   Also I wanted to make some commands in the desktop menu bar on the top
(Special Window) into command button commands.  I am using Finder 6.1.7 and
System 6.0.7, but I could not the window in Res Edit to make it to do so,
so could some one tell me which feild the Menu bar windows are held in 
"System", I assumed that they would be in MENU but I could not find them
in there.

There are some good reference materials for Macs in The Mac Bible, 3rd ed., editor Arthur Naiman; and The Big Mac Book, 2nd ed, Que publisher. They each go for about $25 and I think worth the investment.

Good Luck!
