Actually, it reminds me more of my "Instant Application" package, which
was derived from my file requestor. You passed it an array containing a
set of labels and routines to call when those labels were selected. It
would then pop up my Standard File Requestor and provide an Applications
menu. You then select files and options. I sent it in to c.s.a, but I
don't recall ever seeing it posted. Anyone actually get it?

In fact, it sounds almost exactly like Instant Application...
