Promised since it's first announcement on Oct. 15, 1990, Farallon's
DiskPaper would do exactly what you want.  The question is whether
it will ever materialize--I think that this program takes the award
for the longest vaporware in Mac history.  A Windows version was
also promised and as recently as the March 16, 1992 issue of MacWeek,
Farallon was still talking about the Mac version.  While it ever 
appear?  Did Farallon sell it off as they did to MediaTracks and
MacRecorder?
