A bunch of questions:

1. Exactly what does the INSTALL command do?

2. What does DISKDOCTOR actually do to the disk?  Does it repair corrupted
sectors?

3. Does there exist a program for the Amiga that will search for bad
disk sectors and lock them out so that they won't be allocated to other
files?  In the days of CP/M, there was a program called FINDBAD which
would put all the bad blocks into a single file, so those blocks
wouldn't be reallocated.

4. A wierd bug, which I haven't figured out how to reproduce at will yet:
Using vt100v2.6 (wonderful program) and also having microemacs (can't 
remember which version) also present in memory, suddenly the situation
occurred where not all of the menus would pop down.  Some would, some
wouldn't.  Also, even though the menu wouldn't pop down, I believe the
system actually though it was there, since selecting the menu (the
menu header did invert) and the moving the mouse down a bit and releasing
the button actually did something.  Anyone know what could be going on?

				Thanks in advance,
