I'd post this directly to the author if I knew his address, but it's not listed in the program, and I hope this will somehow drift to him. I know that his software (great stuff) makes it to UseNet, so perhaps the path is bidirectional... Or maybe another user can help me. I'm a happy user of Temperament 2 (version 2.0 Oz.) and it gleefully eliminates all my Word temp files. I've started trying FullWrite Professional, though, and it can't seem to get the garbage that FullWrite leaves in my system folder (which accumulates at a frightful rate, since FW is kind of buggy and uses big "virtual memory" files). The files are called "VMxxxx", where xxxx is a number with a variable number of digits. I tried setting Temperament "by example" to delete them. It recorded the type and creator values, and I said that the files start with "VM". Even so, Temperament doesn't delete them. I am wondering if this is because there is no space between the "VM" and the number? I'm running system 6.0.7 on an SE/30. Any clues? -- Jim Elliott "Like a bridge he'll come between us, not a wall" elliott@veronica.cs.wisc.edu

I use Logout 1.0 and love it!! It tells me exactly how much of a computer nerd I am :). There are only two things I would like to tell John: (1) A bug: On my Mac Classic, under System 6.07, it displays a time index when you Restart, fine, but when you Shut Down, it fails to display anything. Even with no INITs, this problem persists. (2) A suggestion: How about having a "Log File" option, where Logout also keeps a Log File of when your Mac was booted, how long it was used for, and when it would shut down? Yeah, other INITs/cdevs exist that do this, but if you put in this feature in Logout, you would consolidate the features of several programs all into one, which is good for us who have too many thingies in the System Folder. :) Of course, this should be configurable from the Control Panel, since some people don't want logs. Please, if this ever gets to John, forward me a reply to my Internet address, or if you can, my CompuServe or AOL addresses; they're all listed below.

John does prefer being contacted on CompuServe now. If you mail him on the net he (being in Australia) has to pay for receiving mail. His COmpuServe ID is 75300.1262.

>Jonathan Rotenstein >PO Box 165 >Double Bay, NSW 2028 >AUSTRALIA >Perhaps some persistent netter "down under" could track him down and let us >all know how to contact him. You most certainly do have the address correct (or at least as of last year this was the correct address, since I used it and got a response, maybe it was because I also sent a cheque). He does (or did) also have an email address which is (or was) johnr@runx.ips.oz.au I managed to get some email through to him there last year also but I only knew about it because my mailer did not return the mail and he mentioned getting it in his reply (snail mail). Be warned he is (or was) very slow to respond to my mail (of any sort). I also have the complete Happiware collection (includes a description stack, all documentation etc.) as at April 1990. I possibly make it available by ftp at our site if there was enough interest or alternatively ftp it to one of the major archive sites. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alan Chapman, Tutor, School of Info.
