I have discovered what appears to be a major bug in SmartIcon (which I
obtained from Fish Disk # 134).

If you iconify several programs which all have the same name (say,
several NewCLI's), then when you look in the RAM: drawer, you only
find a single icon.  Thus you lose the ability to reopen more than one
of the programs.  The workaround I use:  immediately after iconifying
each program, rename its associated icon to some unique name.

Has anyone else noticed this problem?  (I'm also emailing a bug report
to the author of SmartIcon.)
