Hi!  I have two questions, how big is supposed to be the system in
multifinder?  (2 meg).  I've seen it at 200k or so, but it grows and
grows until it's 700 and when i put stuff away, it's still at the
same size!  Is this normal?

Also: versaterm:  I was told that it can use the background to 
download. I have v 1.2 but when in multifinder there is no
way to click another application.. am I missing something here?
I vaguely remember someone saying I can tinker with programs and
set the 'does in background byte' on.  Is there really such a
godsend byte in resedit or something???  I couldn't find it...
Any known patches to fix this non downloadableness?  grrrr....
my multifinder isn't letting me see all that neat action in lotsa
windows... (*sigh*) oh well....

Thanks for any help!
