Just a note:  If you hold down Option while choosing "Set Aside" in
MF1.6bx, it changes to "Set Aside Others" and lets you, obviously, set
aside all the other programs.  What this does is simply hide their
windows...  If the program is really multifinder friendly, such as
Smartcom, you can continue working (downloading, specifically) while
you are working in another program.
