This is in the TCP/IP browser (rendezvous).. Sorry I guess my message
needed some interface work too.
I find that when I select the server(mac) via rendezvous, I
automatically move my hand toward the close box just as the "connect"
button appears. Looking at the Appletalk browser/selector, there is no
connect button. This seems simple, and less confusing (to me).

If you are going to do that anyhow, i will let you do it.
I just thought it would help to have a binary only package so more
people can test/use the newer escale. I think the size of the nightly
package is big from some people :~)
I can also offer you space on a server here that is on 24/7 if the
powerbook acting as nightly server is sketchy.
