> When you turn the computer on, with Named Folder in the System File,
> you will see an Icon appear that looks like a file cabinet. This is
> to let you know that Named Folder is being installed. If you have
> the Shift key depressed while you power up, then Named Folder will
> not install, and you will see the same icon with a cross in it to
> let you know that Named Folder did not install itself.
>
> After installing Named Folder, the Finder will behave just as it
> always has until you select "New Folder" from the Finder's Edit
> Menu. Then, instead of just having a new folder entitled "Empty
> Folder" appear in your active directory, you will see a dialog box
> that requests a name for the new folder. Type in the name for the
> folder, and Click on the 'Ok' button (or press either of the Return
> or Enter keys). You will get a folder having that name and it will
> be inserted in its proper alphabetic position in the directory.
>
> If you just click on 'Ok' without entering anything, then the normal
> Finder activity will take place and you will get a folder named
> 'Empty Folder'.
>
> Named Folder insists that you enter a name that is acceptable to the
> Finder. This means that you can not use colons in your name; Named
> Folder will automatically change them into dashes - just like the
> Finder does. Also you can not use names that are more than 31
> characters long. If you attempt to do so, Named Folder will beep at
> you and refuse to accept any character after the 31st.
