A long time ago, on a proto single-board MM/1, I wrote a little diddy called
ciff2gif.  That's what I used to convert the IFF snap to GIF.

Yeah, I noticed this 'feature' the other night while deleting Icons you guys
don't need from the tmp icon dir I had created on /r0.  What's going on is
this;  when you delete an entry, it gets deleted from the internal list in
memory, then it will re-display the directory without resorting or rereading
the directory.  I just wasn't keeping track of where you were in the directory
before the delete, so i redisplays from the top.  

I need to add some other things too, but they will take time.  I've been
thinking about the double click to bring up the editor thing more.  I much
prefer an Edit option on the Desk Menu.  Another thing I still want to add is a
Program screen.   This would make it trivial to select a program, then a file
and would make the double click edit uneeded.  Like before I'll see what's most
comfortable here and let you guys play with the results.
