     What are some of the more common methods of tricking applications
  (running under MultiFinder as well as MonoFinder) into writing their
  private scraps to the public scrap?  Also, do most application ever
  do the opposite; that is, when they are activated (i.e. under MF) do
  they import the public scrap into their private scrap?  Anyway, if I
  can get at an application's scrap (through trickery or not) and then
  "put" to it's private scrap (!) you all will see a hell of a program
  (I should have a DA, an INIT, and a APPL version to suit everyone)
  that you will never believe was never thought of before (shhhh.....)

     Anyway, the sooner you can help me answer these questiosn, the
  sooner comes the product!  Thanks much.  Ando "Moon" Sonenblick.
