One of the features of System 7.0 is its ability to "hide" the windows
of an application that isn't in the foreground, on MultiFinder.  Example:
If you're in Microsoft Word, and you have a document window that fills up
the whole screen, and you switch over to Finder to do some disk work,
the Word window disappears, and leaves you with a completely empty desk-
top, so no windows get in the way of selecting disks, files, etc.
But when you switch into Word again, it reappears, with all stuff in
it intact.

Unfortunately, System 7.0 isn't available yet.

Is there an INIT or some other piece of software that will bring this
feature, or a similar such feature, to us users of 6.0.x?

If so, where can it be downloaded, FTP'd, etc. from?

Please reply to me through E-mail on this BBS (if this message was posted
