- I've noticed that when using the icon view in the file viewer that when in
- certain directories icons are arranged and rearranged automatically as files
- are added and deleted, such that there are no vacant positions between the
- icons and they're in alphabetical order. Within other directories, however, the
- file icon is simply added on at the bottom of the viewer. Can anyone tell me
- why this is and how to change it.
-
- btw, Has anyone ever noticed that Digital Webster's sometimes looks-up what
- would seem to be the definition of the succeeding word in the dictionary.
- This problem seems to be limited to many of the words ending with 'est'
- (ie. best, jest, nest, pest, quest, rest, vest, west, etc.)
