I just installed SuperSpool 5.0df (the DataFrame specific version) in the
System Folder of my DataFrame XP60.  The first couple of times I booted
with it in there, it seemed to install fine.  Now, though, it displays a
dialog box saying something like "SuperSpool can not tell if you will be
printing while under MultiFinder."  It has a check box labelled "I will
be using MultiFinder" that is unchecked, and an OK button.  Unfortunately,
this dialog box stays on the screen for a nothingth of a second before
vanishing (I had to look at the SuperSpool file with ResEdit to figure out
what the dialog had been saying).

How do I tell SuperSpool I am using MultiFinder (I am... version 6.0.1
under System 6.0.2) if that box won't hang around long enough for me to
click in it?

On a related topic, is there a way for me to change the frequency of
SuperSpool's disk polling?  It checks my hard drive every four or five
seconds to see if a print job has been spooled, and the access sound
every four or five seconds gets annoying very quickly.
