What's the scoop in System 7.0?  Do comments still get blown away with
rebuilding the desktop? I.e. are they still mostly useless?  Also, it
would be nice to be able to attach Get Info comments in the Standard File
dialogs, especially when creating a new file.  I can do this in Windows
using AmiPro (a word processor).  It comes in handy for identifying files
you created months ago.  Anyone know of an INIT that does this?  Anyone
want to write one?  Could make a nice addition to Boomerang.
