If anyone responded to this, I missed it.  Can anyone answer Brian's

I'm trying to figure out how OS X stores things- where to things like
recent items get saved? The only recent items folder is for Classic,
and poking around in /library, I don't see anything offhand than looks

In OS X it's under the "Blue Apple". Actually has more options than 'recent items" in OS 9.



Actually Bruce Johnson's off-list reply was what I was looking for:

he had to email it to me off-list as the list software is messed up and not allowing him to post.

But it is not just a plain text file.
