Have you ever wondered how many bytes are contained in each of your folders? Now I know you can use the get-info boxes, but why doesn't display by Size report this? Presumably it would take time for the finder to search through the directory to get the up-to-date size, but it would be nice if this was at least an option. I'd like a menu item under special that turns on true size display, then I could see the size of all by folders at once. How about it apple? Jim Meiss jdm@ut-ngp.UTEXAS.EDU
