The program works on Megas, but *not* on 1 MB machines. Please don't waste time downloading it. There will be a new version (0.2) ASAP. For the curious: I wrote the program in CCD/ICD Pascal/ST+, V2.07. While all good compilers for the ST supply a linker option to set the amount of run- time memory for stack/heap/etc, that $#!++& Pascal uses a Compiler option for the same purpose. Well, I forgot to set it, and the default is "grab all you can". I never noticed, because I have 4 MB to play around with, but on 1 MB machines the new 1.4 file selector can't malloc enough memory to function. At least, this is an opportunity to see one of the less-than-common TOS error alerts (the German one even has a spelling error :-). Meanwhile, translators for the program messages are solicited. Again, sorry for the trouble, it's all my fault. Blame me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bitnet: VBRANDT@DBNUAMA1 (will go away late '89) Volker A.
