- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- This is a very rough and ready little utility to patch the filer so that it
- doesn't chicken out of sorting big directories.
-
- This has only been tested on RISC OS 3.7 at the moment, but I am sure people
- will report bugs back pretty damn quick if theres a problem...
-
- I recommend you run this in your boot sequence in the PreDesk directory (or
- before the desktop starts at least!)
-
- If you run it from the desktop all your filer icons will disappear, and you'll
- need to do *Desktop from the 'New Task' menu option on the
- switcher/Task Manager's icon bar menu.
-
- Please let me know how you get on with this software.
