I've had an odd problem with ReadySetGo! v.3 with v.5 system files. Whenever I rebuild my desktop, the icons for RSG disappear into the void, with the further result that I can't open documents directly (although they do just fine if I launch RSG directly and then open the appropriate doc). I could get the icons back by trashing RSG and re-installing it from floppy masters, until one day I had to rebuild the desktop on the floppy. I am now permanently consigned to generic appl/doc icons for RSG. I tried pasting the ICN# resources from RSG itself into the DeskTop file, but it didn't help. The only other thing I've noticed is that most of my applications have the Bundle Bit set, but RSG does not. I'm not deep enough into os.trivia to play any further, but if anyone knows why it might do this and whether there's an easy fix, lemme know. (I know RSG-4 is out, but I couldn't afford the upgrade. :-( ) Linc Madison = e118-ak@euler.berkeley.edu
