I was poking around with my friends mac nosy (2.01 I believe) and was getting
errors just trying to access files -- does anyone know why it trys to access
filename.src when the filename is trucated to 10 characters (instead of the
whole name) and then claims that there is an error (-31? -- it was a noexistant
volume error). The same thing happens when you try and quit and save the .map
and .jnl files. Also occasionally it would bomb when 'combining blocks' with
some sort of LIB error that would freeze the mouse. -- Obviously this is not
for the faint of heart -- but I couldn't even figure out enough to tell if it
was worth the buying. Is the latest version more robust?

PS I wasn't sure if this fit more into .programmer or here so please forgive
   me if you are offended with where I posted this.
