A tip for those using my Calendar 1.1 and ramdisks:  The file name that
Calendar 1.1 uses for its data is stored in a STR# resource.  It is now
Calendar File, but it is simple to use ResEdit to change it to anything
you like  (For example:
HardDisk:System Folder:Calendar File
)

Since the name "Calendar File" has no colons in it, the Mac will use the
"poor mans search path" to find the file.  In the normal case, it will
kust find its data file on the disk, but, if it doesn't find it ,  it 
will create it in the System folder under HFS. 
Under MFS, it just puts it at the disk's top level.
