Mahboud,

I have an old copy too (another shipping screwup keeps my upgrade
away, this one Christmas-related).  It does the same thing, but there's
an easy fix.

Just do your downloading and finish your session before looking at the
files.  It helps to keep the downloads in a closed folder.

Then, quit Versaterm before looking at them.   It apparently lacks the
file flush being called, perhaps just for the BNDL resource (also
desktop position) or something, and quitting does the flush.

Then your downloads will be in position, and wearing the right image.

If you want to do more terminal work, then you can fire up Versaterm
again; it's quick.


I imagine it's fixed in the Multifinder-compatible version -- will
post if not, when it finally comes.
