We need a hard drive parker that can be run from within Spectre 128. When I bring the system down, I am always having to reboot the the "ST part of my computer" so that I can run my head park program. I wish we had an equivalent program that can run from within Spectre. I have tried some of the Macintosh PD parkers but, for obvious reasons, they don't work. Does anyone know of such a program, if not, could someone, as if they really had nothing to do, write one and share it? Not asking for much, am I... Larry Rymal
