Message-ID: <4255@ut-emx.UUCP> Date: 16 Jul 88 14:18:40 GMT References: <8400014@m.cs.uiuc.edu> Reply-To: osmigo@emx.UUCP (Ron Morgan) Organization: Speech Communication UT Austin Lines: 17 [Eisuke Muroga asks about password protection for folders] This is something that's long overdue. MacSafe et. al. are nice but they are overkill to a point; practically "finder replacements" for all their com- plexity. What is needed is a simple, quick-and-dirty routine where one would simply double-click on a folder, and it would ask for a password before it zoomed open. Simple as that. Of course, it would also have to work if the folder were accessed from within an application. This would be a "useful" (wink, wink...) application for someone to write and stick on comp.binaries.mac. =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ >--Ron Morgan--------------{ames, utah-cs, uunet}!ut-sally!ut-emx!osmigo-------< >--Univ. of Texas--{gatech, harvard, pyramid, sequent}!ut-sally!ut-emx!osmigo--< >--Austin, Texas--------osmigo@ut-emx.UUCP-------osmigo@emx.utexas.edu---------< =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+
