More importantly, how do people work around this? [ etc ] ParcPlace ST-80 used to have this on their bug list. Now it is just a feature :-) I have never found a very good workaround. It seems that one has to file out your source code before compressing changes. To recover, the fileouts have to be filed in and then use the change log. I find this "feature" most annoying. -- John Baima john@utafll.uta.edu
