I have just strted programming with great respect to MultiFinder.  There are
only a few things that I haven't figured out yet.

Q 1: How do I determine my current open directory by refnum?
     - Somehow while I running all over the disk, my output folder
       gets changed.  When I write my parameters back to disk, it is written
       to the wrong folder.  I would determine this value when I first run
       so I could keep track of it.

Q 2: How do I determine if Multifinder is running another program?
     - I could turn off my windows if I am not currently running.
