A multi-tasking system for the Mac. The person I heard it from has a beta-test copy. He said that he started a download in MacTerminal, and returned to the finder. He watched the received file grow, then launched a copy of MacPaint. Later he returned to find the download finished. According to him, the total time to download was not too much more than the time it MacTerminal was running alone. I am trying to get more details, I will post them when they become available. -- George Erhart at AT&T Bell Laboratories Columbus, Ohio 614-860-4021 {ihnp4,cbosgd}!cbdkc1!gwe
