Sounds like a nice application, but it seems to me
that you could do all of it (except launching the
correct APP) with current versions of R:Base by
reading the directory into a table, and basing a form
on that table.
In order to be able to launch the application
associated with the file, I think you would need the
6.5++ version of the R:Base -- which is supposed to
have a new command LAUNCH for exactly that purpose.
