Hmm another possible bug I've encountered with Shrinkit is with deleting
files:
I created a NuFX archive and then proceeded to use the ShrinkIt
delete function to get rid of it. The disk ran for a bit and then
said "deleted", however upon checking the catalog, it was still there!!!

I assumed that maybe it just didn't get it the first time and
gave delete another try...  no luck the second time either...

Davex said that the file had a "baked bit-map" (funny Dave, funny...
:-) ) and refused to delete it...  The ProSel utils failed to do
anything with it and Mr fixit gave me the same errors and didn't fix it
The only way I could get rid of the "deleted" file was to copy
over all the other files to another disk and reformat the old one...

Is it my fault for buying an apple instead of a Sun Workstation :-) that
this happened??

Chris
