- Post E2, although I would suspect an Executor Enthusiast or two may
- have some help in this area before then because of the similarities
- between an HFV file and a disk image file.

- Internally we have that ability but it's turned off due to copyright
- reasons. Designing a more flexible way of allowing people to put
- arbitrary icons up there is doable but it's post E2.

- Jim> Multiple selections in the Browser

- Post E2. We'll be making Browser's source available when E2 ships.
- Also after E2 is shipping we'll be looking at a few Browser
- alternatives and see if we can make them go.

- E2 is bascially "feature frozen", meaning that all the features that
- will be in E2 are already present, at least in our lab. Of course
- that's a little tricky since there hasn't been a bleeding release
- since Q12 so you can't tell exactly what we have over here.

- Hmmm... I hope others can provide you with some help. We've run
- HyperCard 2.1 and HyperCard Player 2.2 over here over many versions of
- Executor, including E/D 1.99q12, which is the latest Bleeding Edge
- version publically available. After beta0 is out we'll try to figure
- out why some people are getting HyperCard to run and others aren't.
- In the meantime perhaps Executor Enthusiasts will figure out the
- common denominator for us.
