Like everyone else I rushed out to get my (manual-free) copy of System 7 today,
spent a few hours backing up the hard drive and installing and trying to figure
out which INITs and cdevs I can still use. At the end of that I have some 
questions:

1) No macromaker seems to come with system 7. I copied my system 6 macromaker
into the extension folder, but it doesn't seem to do anything. Are my days of
being able to force my editor to look like the unix jove editor over?

2) The finder find command seems very fast. However can you tell it not to
present me with an icon of the file its found, but to show me where the file is
(you know- something like disk20:folder1:folder2:looked_for_filw like the old
findfile DA used to do). I've fiddled with views but nothing there seems
promising.

3) I have a b/w SE/30. Can anyone tell us the technical reason why the new
finder is **so** slow with moving icons? If I move say 20 icons in a finder
window dwon say 3 cm, I see each one lovingly drawn in slow motion- do we have
to put up with this?
