I am a registered user of PowerStation.  For some reason, I have not
been using PowerStation for quite a long time.  Recently, I digged out
my copy of PowerStation, and played around with it more.  I started to
re-realize its usefulness!  It's interface is really elegant.  Steve
Brecher did a great job!

However, I have the following suggestions/bug reports:

1) Under Multifinder 6.1dx, the beta release Multifinder with the "Set
Aside" feature, the install DA feature in PowerStation no longer works
because in the new Multifinder, the application menu and DA menu are
swtiched (application menu is on top of DA menu).  Is there a fix for
this?  Or is it already fixed in a newer version  (I have version 2.3) ?
                                                                  ^^^
Does a newer version exist, if yes, why am I not notified.

2) The "Dedicate this set of documents to the application menu" feature is
REALLY nice. However, I would also like to have a pop-up menu of all the
documents installed to an application (or just for the documents that
are check-marked among all the installed docs).  Rightnow, the pop-up
menu just opens a window displaying all the installed documents then it
would require me to open one of the installed documents, so this
becomes a two step process... ( maybe this feature is there but I can't
find it ???? ).

3) The only way (that I know of) to install a document is to install the
application and then use the "Dedicate this set of doc....to appl..."
feature.  Then what is the "Install any document" feature for ???  When
I first saw this feature, I thought that after I install, say a WORD
document, and if I click on it, WORD would be automatically called upon
to open that document.  However, Powerstaion just would treat whatever
is installed this way as an application, and then it would beep at me
since a WORD doc is not an application by itself.  I still can't figure
out what the real use of this feature is, since afterall, if I can't
open a document as an application anyway, what's the use of my
installing it ???  I think that the interface here should be made a
little more intuitive such that when I install a document with
"option-install", Powerstation should open it's proper application
along with this installed document.

4)  Is is possible in a future release of PowerStation that I can set
the pattern of a button, or just maybe put the applicatoin's icon there,
instead of just a name ???  One nice thing about Macintosh interface is
that its ICONS.  It would be really nice if PowerStation incorporates
it.

Overall I am REALLY satisfied with PowerStation and Software Supply's
customer support (so far, except for Suitcase II, all of its upgrades have
been FREE) -- 5th Generation hasn't come up with an upgrade to
PowerStation yet.

Special Disclaimer: Read and decode my last paragraph.  I just really,
                    really, really like all of its software, really...
