You might want to try a simple short term fix for this type of problem that
is available on the Mac. Andy Hertzfeld wrote a patch to the open routine
that searches all directories if it cannot find the file in the current
directory. This allows many pre-HFS programs to work with the new Mac ROMs.
I do not know if this kind of patch is as easy on the ST as it is on the MAC,
but it might be worth a try.
