The above (AUX) appeared during the move. /Hannu E K Nevalainen, 59~14'N, 17~12'E ~ <=> degree -- Background: One form of driver loading on the Amiga is done with simple text files containing settings in a specific directory (SYS:DOSDrivers/). Here we have a device, by default, named AUX i.e. a file named AUX. For this file to be visible with an icon on the desktop (Workbench) among other things, there must be an AUX.info. Which in turn contains the icon image and "TOOLTYPES" i.e. settings that are local for that Tool or Project.
