Purcell) says "As for having to scroll through tons of DAs to get to MultiFinder app icons, try holding the Option key down before pulling down the Apple menu. This works with OS versions 6.0.3-5 at least." What's this supposed to do? I just did a quick check with a copy of the System 6.0.4 "Utilities 1" disk, and nothing seemed to happen. On my hard disk, I have MultiFinder 6.1b9, which swaps the applications and DAs in the apple menu, and lets you "hide" application layers in various ways with the option key, but I don't think this is what Purcell had in mind. Or is it?
