I agree that the FTP client software included with versaterm is very slick. This particular part of it is not very bright though. If you are in an open-file-dialog anywhere else in the Mac system, you click on the name to see the folders that make up the path to that name. You don't get a drop-down menu of commands. I'd rather have the drop down list of commands be somewhere else, and have the name-field on this open-file-dialog work like name fields do on standard open-file-dialogs. - - - - - - - - Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@rpi.edu or gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA
