- Let me see if can clear this all up...
-
- As of System 7 Pro, the Finder includes a number of undocumented "features"
- that the developers were able to sneak in. HOWEVER, in order to keep them
- secret, you need an extension which will enable the features. The most
- notable of the features is "control dragging alias creation" - in other
- words hold down the control key and drag a file to another folder...instead
- of copying it, it will create an alias!
-
- I have enclosed an extension that I wrote (called Alias Dragger, oddly
- enough) that will enable the feature. This is "if it works, great - if
- not, bummer!" ware... and has NOTHING to do with my employer, so leave them
- alone.
