I put it back in the system folder on my Mac SE at home (just last weekend), and as I remember it worked fine. Of course, that was at the end of a long night and I didn't play around with it for long... You have to put it in the system folder itself, not in the control panels folder (which is where system 7 wants to put it). Then make an alias to it and put that alias in the control panel folder. - - - - - - - - Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@rpi.edu or gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA
