 [For the great stone-eating mons..  ]

	I'd like to thank all the guys who helped me out with the
problem of order of execution of files in the AUTO folder;  I got so
many replies that it'll be better to acknowledge them all at once.
Thanks!   (The answer, as explained some days earlier by a poster, is
that the files are executed in the order into which they are
introduced into the AUTO folder).  Now, on to the next question: (!)

	I would like to get my ST into a certain configuration at
bootup - into a shell, with a certain filestructure in my ramdisk, etc.
I've been doing this by putting the ramdisk program and the shell
program into the AUTO folder, with a profile (for the shell) that
copies stuff into my ramdisk, etc. etc.  However, this causes the desk
accessories to not be loaded, because that seems to be done *after*
the stuff in the AUTO folder finishes, so in my case only when I quit
the shell.  Now I would very much like certain desk accs. to be
pre-loaded, so that I can do quick trips from the shell to the
desktop, *without* waiting for the accs. to be loaded.  This is also
important because some stuff I use depends on the control panel to
initialize the RS232 and printer ports.. Is there some
way of putting a *desk acc. loader* into my AUTO folder, which would
load the accessories?  To prevent TOS from trying to load them when I
quit the shell, the accs. could be renamed, eg. to .ACS or something.
Does such a utility exist?  I'm not sure what would be involved in writing it. 
I'd greatly appreciate any tips on this matter.     Thanks in advance,
