Ha-ha. Didn't know that :-) It's kinda confusing since pre Jag had all the BSD man docs. I actually never installed FreeBSD I bought so I even don't know if BSD and FreeBSD shares man docs. >Hiro, I'd love to hear more from you too about how Finale is using >memory...and this whole topic.

Since none of us can come up with a specific user >action that causes the bug...at least not yet... To my limited knowledge, as David pointed out, stressed memory cannot corrupt anything. The pref issue is something different. There are two types of pref architecture, one that keeps open, and the other opens only when the app tries to log pref change. I think Finale is latter, and it seems pref change is cached until program exit. Something goes sour, pref r/w won't get executed. OSX's protected memory is very good. I think our finger should point to how Finale caches into its legacy temp file architecture. But I am not a real programmer, just a wannabe :-) (OK, my education was only java programming at Harvard, which sounds impressive, but not a big deal at all, really. Now you know I am not that real!). -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
