zones invisible to Chooser
List Moderator
We are using a freeware program called LaserwriterLockout which may not do
exactly what you want, but it comes close. It allows you to select which
objects are visible in the Chooser (e.g. printers, servers, etc.) and I
think it even lets you make the local system folder 'invisible'. I don't
remember where we got it, but I would guess you could find it fairly
easily. We are using ver 1.1 and the documentation lists the following
for the author's information:
Maurice Volaski
vol...@contra.med.buffalo.edu
173 Princeton Ave Apt#2
Amherst, NY 14226-5006
But the creation date of this version was 1990, so Maurice may not be at
that address any more. I don't know if there is a newer version either.
Any way, hope this helps,
Scott...
