Message-ID: <1433@ns-mx.uiowa.edu> Date: 5 May 90 02:41:06 GMT Sender: news@ns-mx.uiowa.edu Lines: 20 I have all my applications in a folder called "Applications." How can I launch a given application when I am deep down in some folder far far away from "Applications"? I know there are a lot of launching programs out there, I have been using the "Disktools" DA for this, but what I really would like is some sort of mechanism like a symbolic link provides in the Unix environment, ie create a link to an application in the "Applications" folder. Know what I mean? Jeff Haferman internet: jlhaferman@icaen.uiowa.edu Department of Mechanical Engineering University of Iowa Iowa City IA 52240
