Application organisation
Authored by: McDriver on Sep 21, '02 11:16:48AM

In OS9 and earlier the actual location of applications and files on the harddrive was a no concern for the user because the icon representing any file was just an alias pointing to the file. That means you could move the alias aroud as you pleased and nothing actually moved on your drive, That is why you should use the same procedure in osx by making an alias and store it whereever you want. ie organize your alias instead of your applications. Any other way is just plain wrong.
