    Hi,

    Was there ever a RICOS application to make individual directories look different e.g. a different colour? I have a vague recollection of
    something.

    I can do that on Windows.

    Thank you. Got that. Now all I have to do is figure out how to use it.

    Richard Ashbery wrote it up with some examples in the September 2021 issue
    of The WROCC (39.6), if that's any help.
