Do we have any Mac users on the list who can confirm this apparent bug?

I can open multiple instances of flmsg under Vista, although I've never
tested it before I got this report. Apparently, Rabe can't open a second
instance of flmsg with Mac, and he looses the extract file from the
previously opened FLMSG when he opens a second one.

This is NOT an flmsg bug, but a limitation imposed by the way the OS X launches applications. I can open several instances of flmsg on my mini-mac but must do so from a command line terminal (which many OS X users are loath to do even though the underlying operating system is BSD Unix).

Subject: FLMSG 1.1.1 on the Macintosh version

Hi, Dave: Just an observation about a quirk with the performance of FLMSG
on the Mac.
The program works great, except for one small problem: only one FLMSG
window will appear on the desktop, even if I open the FLMSG program another
time.  Because of this, after I have brought up a message, and try to bring
up a second message, the first message is erased, and only the second
message appears in its place in the FLMSG window.  Not a real problem,
because if I want to preserve a message, I simply save it before I decode
another.
I understand that in the Windows version, multiple windows will appear.
