I FTP'd a copy of CLICK.ZIP from cica.cica.indiana.edu.
This message refers to Click! Filer Version 1.1 from TrogloByte.

When I tried to define push buttons in the Custom Defs I got
corrupted win.ini, progman.ini, etc.
This is extra strange since Click! saves its settings into click.ini.
The problem may be related to my specifying that the program was to be run with
"highlighted source args" and no fixed args (I cleared the field that defaults
to "none").

This occurred on two separate 386 machines in 386 Enhanced mode.
Anyone using it successfully?
Suggestions?

Be careful - Backup at least your *.ini files before running Click!.
You might want to backup *.pif and *.grp while you are at it.
