Every so often, I find that I have an invisible file Lesktop with type
FNDR and creator ERIK (same as Desktop) in the top folder of a volume.
Since Lesktop is invisible, I only see it from Disktop. I've
encountered this file on hard drives and on floppies.
Who creates this file and under what circumstances? Deleting it seems to
cause no problems. I haven't noticed any system problems that I could
reasonably attribute to the presence of this file.
I have an instance of Lesktop on one of my partitions that was created
on 5/13 around 3PM; I recall using the Mac about that time. The last
time I rebuilt the Desktop on that partition was months before (if
ever). Poking around in Lesktop with ResEdit reveals a structure
similar to Desktop.
I'm running 6.0.5 on a IIcx with 5MB and an internal 105MB drive
partitioned with Silverlining.
Thanks for any info.
