I've been having a strange little problem on my SE/30 (4Mb RAM, 80Mb HD). Some- times when I have a crash, but not always, I reboot to get a dialog saying something to the effect of "Macros file resource fork corrupted" or the like. This has also happened occasionally when I have not had a crash, but still always on a reboot. I just met someone with a IIcx who has the same problem. I checked the hard drive for viruses with Disinfectant 2.1 and also rebuilt the desktop. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Also does anyone have any suggestions for a shareware/freeware/public domain program to replace MacroMaker with that has better features? Any that do not hog much more disk space, RAM, or CPU time?

I've only had my Mac IIsi about a month. Well, I discovered how to get files
with ftp & such, and was playing with some last night. Several programs that
I got also crashed (wouldn't work with a IIsi or somesuch).
Well, when I started up this morning, MacroMaker informed me that it couldn't
load my macros file because its "resource map is bad." How serious of a
problem is this? Do I need to rebuild my macros file from scratch, or is
there any way to salvage it?
I thought it might have been a conflict with an INIT or cdev (I got several of
those too). I tried taking all of them out, but to no avail.
Please reply by E-mail. I will summarize.
Thanks in advance,
