I am trying to edit the boot block using FEdit 3.6 and have also tried Resedit 2.1 to change the maximum number of open files field so that I can open more windows under the finder. The problem is: no matter what I do, I always end up with 0A in this field after rebooting. Does anybody know how to change this???????? Surely I have enough memory in a Mac SE30 to open up more windows than the default maximum. Nick Cobb cobbn@cogsci.edinburgh.ac.uk ** fancy footer stuff and quotes **

When I was beta testing StuffIt Deluxe, I had this problem, too. It turned out to be a feature of Magic Menu. Magic Menu runs in the Finder's heap. Apparently, Aladdin determined that if you opened more than 10 windows in the Finder, they didn't have enough memory to do their own stuff, so they limit you to 10 windows. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keith Rollin --- Apple Computer, Inc.
