[] You are 100% better off than I am. I tried to update my system (4.1) file on my SE with the provided Installer and script. The final result was a system that was broken in the interesting way of not recog- nizing the SHIFT key! I couldn't shift-click, or type capitals (SHIFT LOCK didn't work either). I also had some interesting bombs. I finally just put all my System-file fonts and DAs (not many because of Suitcase) onto a floppy and copied the System 4.2 file directly. Now things work normally, but I have a few compatability questions, each with two parts ((a) under Finder, (b) under Multifinder): I couldn't seem to get the Popkeys INIT from FKEY manager 3.0 to work. Is it broken? I see several reasons why SuperSpool might not work under Multifinder, but I couldn't get it to work under (uni)Finder either. Since the new built- in spooler only runs for Laserwriters, I face the frustration of not being able to spool prints after growing used to doing so. Will the built-in stuff spool to an appletalk imagewriter? If so, what is required to make an image- writer work as an appletalk device? What else seems to be broken? -- pem@cadnetix.UUCP (nbires!isis!ico!cadnetix!pem)
