I came back to the newsgroup looking for confirmation of just
this problem -- I have System 4.0, Finder 5.4 and Switcher 5.1 on
my Mac SE, and problems with running Switcher.  I'm not looking
for answers here;  I think Sue summed it up neatly.  I'm just replying
to Steve's question about what lurks.

If I go into the dark woods of Switcher and bring up MacDraw, then
MacWrite and then try to open a file, then I spend as long as I have
the patience for watching the watch.  The file window comes up (empty)
with the correct file name on it, then the watch just sits there and
nothing ever happens.

That's just my combination of software, I guess, but there are
bogeymen out there.
