interesting bug (kinda major)



   OK, the following report is under version 1.99n5 (Haven't been able to get
the latest release yet, sorry, so if this is fixed ignore the message) running
on a P-90, 8 meg ram, with the parameters -nosplash -applzone 3500 -syszone
3500 -stack 1024
        
   OK...Here's what I tried to do. I chose the HFS_XFer off the apple menu to
move a folder (we'll call it test1). Let's say the folder was on drive 1. I
chose the destination as drive 2 (a seperate volume on my hard disk) So, I
selected the destination, highlited the folder to be moved, and clicked on
move. It seems to work for a bit, then says: "Error -43 in PBGetCatInfo"
Continue or Abort? I choose Continue, and it seems to finish. This is where it
gets confusing. 

   The moved folder is still where it orginally was. I double-click on it, and
it shows me a duplicate of the folder it was contained it. (example: Folder
Shareware contains 10 games (folders), one of which was the one I tried to
move. When I open that particular 1, it shows me a second folder with all 10
sharware games in it) I then clikc to drive 2, the destination. The folder
never made it. When I close drive 1, or restart Executor the supposedly moved
folder is deleted, and I have not found a way to recover it...This for me,
happened to be 15 meg in compressed files...
just thought you might want to know about that...:)
later
