I've just discovered a bug (or something) in StuffIt 1.31.  It happens almost
every time with a .sit file with more than one document stuffed.  The StuffIt
program itself is about 3-4 folders deep on an AppleShare volume.  The .sit
file is in the root of a floppy.  The destination is in a folder at least
one deep on another floppy.

Bug description?  After I've selected more than one thing to un-.sit, it
gives the compress/extract window and starts on the files.  Then it just
hangs.  Nothing works, not even the mouse.  Rebooting fixes things.  This
has happened several times.

Any suggestions?

Thanx
