YES, YES. Apple Please do it!!! And why you're at it, how about a virtual directory, a folder that keeps track of all the floppies you ever look at and allows you to search for unmounted files on those disks. This would only be feasable for hard disk users I suspect as the space required to save all those directories could get quite large. If you could delete, rename, and move those files from unmounted disk to disk, you could do a real nice job of organizing archives and keeping track of files. I have some 200 - 300 floppies and it gets to be a real pain to find things sometimes.-- Tony Jacobs * Center for Engineering Design * U of U * t-jacobs@ced.utah.edu
