I think I agree that a "Quit" for PrintMonitor would be good, but note this: The "Background" demon launches PrintMonitor whenever there are spool files to print, so immediately after you quit PrintMonitor, a new one is spawned! Putting in a "Quit" that makes sense would require some kind of change. -- Darin Adler AppleLink:Adler4 UUCP: {sun,voder,nsc,mtxinu,dual}!apple!darin CSNET: darin@Apple.com
