Environment: Dell 486/25, 12Mb, 800x600x256, Motif Hi - I encountered a possible "feature" of the DVX File Manager. I brought up the file manager and connected to a Sun. I made a directory called "TAR_Z_FILES" where I keep a few things archived. I then tried to double-click down into the directory using the file manager, and it crashed. The file manager died, apparently leaving everything else intact. I repeated this a couple of time with the same results. I changed the directory name to "tar_z_files" and then restarted the file manager. This time there were no problems. I tried a few different directory names such as "X" and "XXXXXXXX" without any problems. (Those were made from another login session.) I made a few more directories using the "Make Directory" menu in File Manager. I haven't been able to duplicate the problem. Has anybody ever seen this before? - Larry Babb Battelle Memorial Institute
