I think LaunchServices will use the first one        > as the default.               1. Good to know. I don't use SportLight or QuickLook much, so I don't know       much of their inner workings. I am more of a "having a hundred text files       open at the same time" kind of guy.       2. I did this originally with CiderXPress and NuShrinkItX but when I moved       the Apps out of their original place, Virtual II took over and I didn't       realize what happened at first. I also did the "Apply to all files" to       CiderXPress and NuShrinkItX when I        moved them back, which didn't change Virtual II's behaviour. This shouldn't       have been application specific when applying to all as it shouldn't have       realized I was trying to apply control back to the original apps. I still       think this is all unnecessary        programming maybe more on Apples account for putting such things into their       code.              I totally agree with Kegs being the main emulator now. Now if I can just       persuade Kent to program a 640x400x256 color screen into Kegs. That would be       like a christmas present to me. :)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
