I saw in MacWeek the other day that they got a preview of Finder 7.0
(supposedly- grain of salt time) and that it supported links.  Lots of
other neat stuff, too, like network icons: open up the Appletalk
"folder" and see all the LaserWriters, servers, etc...  Double click them
to choose them, etc...  It also said something about supporting user-
written code modules... Sounds like a great new Mac fad of the season
(the list so far: FKEYs, INITs, CDEVs, XCMDs...)
