In my last post, I mentioned artWorks' use of temporary memory for document storage as "against Apple guidelines". That was incorrect. Use of temp memory for document storage is perfectly reasonable in System 7, and (as I noted in my previous post), it has big advantages when the document sizes can vary widely. This use of MultiFinder temporary memory is not possible in System 6, where such memory must be released between calls to WaitNextEvent. -- Russell Williams Not speaking for Apple Computer
