In-Reply-To: Mike Sisson (sisson_md%brutus.decnet) Mike, First of all, thank you for including a signature with your third letter. I did get your first two, but after numerous attempts and routing variations, my messages always bounced back. I'm glad, also, that you wrote about what your problem was. I have really good news for you. I just released the latest SunDesk Strip 1.2 to America Online yesterday. It also went onto BIX today. I should have it on GEnie this evening (if it isn't already there). This new version *does* support the Desktop Manager as well as multiple volume and partition scanning. It is light years better than the 1.0b2 (and earlier) versions. I'm Cc'ing this to the comp.sys.mac.misc newsgroup as an announcement that SunDesk Strip 1.2 is out and making the rounds. If you don't have it (or you have an earlier version) it is worth the hunt to track down a copy and upgrade. It's public domain, though we're supporting it as if it were a real commercial program. As you know, SunDesk Strip is a utility for users of Frederic Miserey's excellent SunDesk INIT which allows your desktop to teleport into the future of System 7.0 by making use of 8-bit colored icons. SunDesk Strip builds an icons file that SunDesk uses with only the icons that match those on your desktop. So your system loads much faster and less RAM is used. It also has an excellent icon adding feature which makes it painless to add an icl8/ICN# icon pair (with automatic ID management) to your Icon Gallery. It will add icons to the gallery from any kind of file, including new System 7.0-aware applications from Apple and third party developers. --Morgan Davis, President Morgan Davis Group San Diego, CA UUCP: crash!pnet01!pro-sol!mdavis ProLine: mdavis@pro-sol ARPA: crash!pnet01!pro-sol!mdavis@nosc.mil MCI Mail: 137-6036 INET: mdavis@pro-sol.cts.com America Online, BIX: mdavis
