I have been wishing for a specific DA for about a year now, and Santa Claus
still hasn't come through.  Just in case he's listening on the net, I think
I'll post my wish here.

I WISH there existed a DA that allowed one to edit the "Get Info" text for a
given file.  That way I could use short file names and still indicate what
files contained without quitting applications.

Sorry, Nick, I have never read I.M., so I don't know if such a DA is
impossible or prohibitively difficult.

                 Love,
                   Kelvin Thompson
