Nah, I think that's a feature of TOS 1.6. The guys at Atari thought it
might be nice to look at the code rather than run the program from time
to time.

I'm not sure about the fix, I think that bug has appeared when I was
using the desktop inf file on my hard drive, which is definitely an STe
version. I find the best way to beat this bug is to buy Neodesk(!)

Mark.
