- I didn't try to reenact the steps I took, but I have a couple of observations
- about the HFS Xfer bug (or filesystem bug): only specific folders are affected,
- and moving them to a different place on the volume has no effect (they CAN be
- moved, but cannot be deleted). If copied to another volume, the destination
- folders CAN be deleted. Also, the only folders this has happened to -started
- out- as folders within other folders.
-
- One quick thing about cursors disappearing: I've noticed that for applications
- which hide the cursor, hitting shift-ctrl-5 brings up a cursorless dialog box
- (and apple/alt-period doesn't cancel it).
