Message-ID: <29835@hydra.gatech.EDU> Date: 25 May 91 01:30:13 GMT Followup-To: comp.sys.mac.system Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 22 For the creative programmer, Here are 2 ideas for system extensions under system 7. An Icon Editor/Database which is easilly accessible from the Finder. Perfect for the many mac users with limited artistic ability who want to customize their finder icons. A "New File" Option for the Finder. Pull down the file menu, and the mac presents you with a scrolling list of all of the applications on the mounted volumes. After selecting an application, and typing a filename, the app launches and creates a new blank document already named whatever you named it. I have already found System 7, the extensions manager, and understudy all wonderfully usefull. I'm also waiting anxiously for HAM. Thanks, wMoss -- William Moss Disclaimer: I speak for myself. wMoss --
