It was claimed on Compuserve that the only difference between System 3.1 and System 3.1.1 is the lock bit ( I think that is the one ) is on for pack 6 in 3.1, and off for pack 6 on 3.1.1. If this is true, ResEdit is all one needs to fix System 3.1. [ I think it was pack 6... ] I am not sure that I believe this, since my one copy of 3.1 had the bit off, as did 3.1.1. > Better yet, wait a week or two for a dealer (or a friend) to get > you System 3.2. If you are in a hurry, and are on Compuserve, System 3.2 and Finder 5.(one greater then the current one) are going to be uploaded to macdev any day now. -- Tim Smith sdcrdcf!ism780c!tim || ima!ism780!tim
