Neil,
  If you look at this message, you will see that I have effectively
  addressed my message to you (without even having to type in your
  full name...) If you want to reply to someone in particular on an
  STadel in a public group, isn't it just as easy to put their name
  into the body of the message like this as it is to be prompted for
  the name in a program? It's true that if you (R)eply to someone on
  other BBS's, you don't have to type in their name, but is that such
  a big deal? In fact, you can speak directly to more than one person
  in a public forum in this way...sheeze...in fact...

Dan (Mr. MWC),
   Thanks for the info on big arrays...now that hdscan is released on
   Unix I should be able to get a new version released on the ST soon
   (with no messy limitations).

Lee (and other DISKTOP users),
   A new version of disktop is coming up soon (I finally found out why the new
   OSS Pascal was flaking out on me). I am looking at eventually trashing the
   code, however, and hatcheting up a special version of HDSCAN to
   become a future version of DISKTOP...that way I can keep track of
   full hierarchy and also have a tool that will work on all the
   floppies on my Unix box...with all of hdscan's features of course.
   I am really surprised that there aren't any tools like this already
   on Unix systems...or if there are, they are so expensive that I
   never hear about them.
