- I used to use ZTerm 0.9, which seemed automatically to recognize the
- type/creator of most files I tried to down-load. Now I'm using Microphone II
- 4.something, and it seems really stupid. When I down loaded a UN*X tar file
- with ZTerm, ZTerm said "Aha! TARF/TAR." Microphone II with the same file
- said, "Duh, huh?"
-
- Is there anyway to make MPII smarter, or do I have to put the type/creator in
- by hand for each file?
-
- Thanks.
