Is this correct? If so, would someone be KIND Steve> enough to tell me what it exactly does? Thanks!!! The switch is "-system 7", not "-system7". You can also say "-system 9" if you want. :-) If you want to be more specific you can also say things like "executor -system 7.1.2". The "-system" switch is only present in recent "bleeding edge" updates (e.g. Executor 1.99o8). Basically, it makes Executor pretend to be system 7, and enables some system 7 features. Much of System 7 is unimplemented, so "-system 7" is not the default. It makes some apps run, like NIH Image 1.58, and makes some apps break. -Mat
