ok, a little more on this. In addition to the original picture I
put up:
http://www2.hawaii.edu/~gkomatsu/launch.jpg
Compare it with:
http://www2.hawaii.edu/~gkomatsu/launch2.jpg
The latter is from an 8.1 PPC, but the Launcher works identically. (As far
as I know, except for variable sized buttons and being able to drag and
drop directly to/from the Launcher window, the Launcher has pretty much
worked the same since it's introduction in System 7.5. I've set up
Launchers under 7.5 like this without problem.)
Notice the folder names have the dot preceeding them, this signals the
Launcher to create those group buttons you see at the top of the Launcher
window (launch2.jpg). However this didn't happen with the machine in
question (launch.jpg). I just got four item buttons for the folders.
...the items in the Launcher Items folder of launch2.jpg are folders (as
shown by the open Internet folder. The reason for the special icons and
the abbreviated names (ie "(Mara)") is because I had originally set things
up to use the X-Launch launcher, but that kept crashing my machine so I
went back to Apple's Launcher and never reverted the icons and such to
their old selves.
