Does anybody remember the utility called 'BindNames V1.0' dated -3/14/89 by Dave Haynie? What I want to know, is there a new version available under 2.0? Or (even better) does 2.0 support this sort of feature directly (It's a brilliant Idea) ? Cheers.

If you ever get the time: How about making it possible to add the assigns via tooltypes? It would make it great for WB users out there. (I.E. most Amiga 2.0 users.)

[Enter introspection mode...] Hmm - do I really want Dave to take time away from building spiffy hardware to update his spiffy software? Hard call. Probably best if he does what he thinks is best. [Exit introspection mode...] If you're going to do it, I tweaked it to check for a "directory" argument, defaulting ty sys:names. That way, I can move the names directory off the WB partition, so that something I don't have to worry about clobbering it on OS udpates. >Or (even better)does 2.0 support this sort of feature directly Not that I know of. I couldn't find it either. Howe >(It's a brilliant Idea) Thanks. I still use it. Ditto, for both. <mike -- Round about, round about, in a fair ring-a.
