I keep forgetting about Iconx. I used it once, as a platform to launch an ARexx script I wrote, that enabled me to format a floppy disk using the fast file system (FFS). I stumbled around trying to get the script to execute, then came across Iconx. Wrote an Iconx script that says "Rx FastFileFloppyFormat" and I was off. (The rabbit Icon I adapted from NoFastMem really gets raves from people who look at my System disk, too! :^) I know I could have written an Iconx script, but I wanted an option to cancel the formatting, plus I had the luxury of reading the directory of the disk I want to format before proceeding. The best thing about the Amiga is its flexibility and ease of use! I havn't even scratched the surface of it. Glad I didn't get a 486! (But I wish I had waited until now to get the 3000 – Ouch!) Thanks again for your help! — Dave
