I've FTP'd a new version of NLoad to the submissions directory of the
cs.orst.edu NeXT archive (version 'nov 27 1989' in the Info panel).

This version fixes some bugs (eg. NLoad would cause a 'limitcheck' PostScript
error to /usr/adm/messages if/when the NeXT was (very) idle (apparently caused
by the difference between the smallest positive numbers in 'C' and
PostScript)).

The code has also simplified in a few places (eg. uses an appDidInit: method
instead of a second timer to initialize the application icon).  NLoad should
now do slightly less work on each update and thus steal fewer cpu cycles.

Bug reports and/or suggestions welcome,

- Christopher
