Since it's been there for 2 years and others apparently have downloaded it, I gather it's an uncorrupted copy. I don't own a IIgs so there could be some problem that doesn't appear on my //e or //c. The Chameleon program will do what you want. It is available in files 87-00030 and 87-00031 on the APPLE2-L list server at the BITNET node BROWNVM. To obtain these files, send the commands GET APPLE2-L 87-00030 GET APPLE2-L 87-00031 to: LISTSERV@BROWNVM.BITNET <--- NOTE! to LISTSERV not to APPLE2-L!!! An even better alternative would be to send the SHAREWARE FEE to the address displayed by the program (and in the documentation) and ask for the latest version by return mail.
