Also while demoing AppleScirpt & StuffIt last week at MacWorld, I wrote a "droplet" (scriptable dropbox) which would do the same as Drop*Stuff, but was done via AppleScript so it could be customized and would work with Lite as well as Deluxe. Another thing that migh work here too is that the "stuff" filter for FilterTop used to work by calling StuffIt Lite/Deluxe vai Apple events. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Leonard Rosenthol Internet: leonardr@netcom.com Director of Advanced Technology AppleLink: MACgician Aladdin Systems, Inc.
