I definitely agree.  SETINIT has saved my neck on occasion.  But you mush have
a REAL old copy of SETINIT.  The version I've been using for the past year now
didn't need to be hacked to work with my Supra (but then, maybe the friend I
got it from did that for me?)  Anyway, if there has ever been a more useful
program to go into the ST's AUTO folder, I'm oblivious to it.
