While we're talking about 2.0 bugs… My wife has discovered the following bugs under 2.0: 1) If the filenames of redirected input and output (ie. < and >) are too long (ie. dev:directory/directory/directory/long_file_name.ext), then the system give a "too many < or >" type error. 2) The GLOBAL and REMOVE options of the ALIAS command do not work; they are not recognized by the command. 3) If she creates a NewShell with the NewShell command, she gets a close gadget–UNLESS she creates the window from Startup-Sequence. If the latter, then no close gadget. 4) This sequence causes the system to freeze up: 1) create a new drawer, 2) open the drawer, 3) put the drawer icon into the trashcan, 4) (empty the trash: may be optional), 5) create a new drawer in the same window with the old name. 6) Try to close the old-drawer window. What's the proper way to report this kind of thing? Are any of these "known" bugs? Thanks -)—– Chris
