I have seen what appear to be three versions of Finder 6.1 accompanying
System 6.0.2.  The only VISIBLE difference (the version numbers are the
same) is with the command-key equivalents for Restart and Shutdown under
the Special menu.

The first version I saw had command-R and command-S for Restart and Shutdown,
respectively.  The second version I saw had NEITHER, just like in previous
versions of the Finder.  The third had no equivalent for Restart, but had
command-Q for Shutdown.

Also, the version that had R and S got to me with the vertical icon phase
set at 15 pixels (i.e. icons in Finder windows are staggered up and down
across a line, rather than having them in a straight line).  I changed this
in the LAYO resource because I didn't like it.

Have I been seeing home-altered copies of the Finder?  Which of the above
configurations did Apple release?  All of them?  Just one?  Please tell me
whether I'm using good software!

If you e-mail replies I am likely to see them; my system often erases
articles before I can catch up.  I will summarize responses to the net.
