One thing I've noticed with list is a different behavior when listing a directory versus listing the filename in the directory, when a new file is currently getting copied by workbench into that directory:

1) Listing the directory containing the new file, I don't get any DOS errors and everything is fine.
2) Listing the file in the directory by itself, I get a "No information for <filename>: object is in use"

Thanks for the datatypes updates!   Is text search possible for AmigaGuide?   
WAV and AIFF datatypes on Aminet don't seem to work on 3.1.4.   Any likely hood of including some updated sound WAV / AIFF ones in the future?

They do work, but only for 8 bit samples because this is all the hardware can do.

I'll have to check more but I seem to be getting "Unknown data type for <filename>" for both a AIFF and WAV file.

I was trying the versions here:

Ah...thanks for the info.   Found one that doesn't need v41 and it is working!

To make that particular wav datatype work on any 3.x version of AmigaOS you also need to use his sound.datatype v41.

GIF and AIFF datatypes... :)

@rxxic:

Well, don't throw away your OS3.9 CD just yet; not every tool will be as feature-complete as H&P's equivalents, so some components from OS3.2 will be better to be overwritten with OS3.9 components.

Such as?

The only components I would perhaps wish to bring from OS3.9, from the top of my head...

* SYS:System/Find - only requires one or two Reaction classes that I presume are now part of OS3.2
* RAWBInfo - same as Find, only requires classes that I presume are now part of OS 3.2
* Unarc - also requires resource.library, which I presume would need to be brought from OS 3.9
* "Ghostbuster" edition of SYS:Prefs/Workbench that allows one to hide NDOS/"Uninitialized" (sic) volumes from Workbench.

Anything else?
