- -> Why is this file requester (ASL is I think the name) so slow
- -> getting directories? I want to use it in a program but I hate how
- -> slow it is. Is there another one that looks like it (I like the
- -> look and feel of 2.0) but gets faster directory listings. I know
- -> it can be done because I have seen some *amazingly* fast file
- -> requestors in my time
-
- Be patient, WB 2.1's ASL is at least a magnitude faster. If you can't
- wait, use another requester like MFR that can wedge ASL and use it instead
- while retaining complete compatibility...
