If someone doesn't speak up with an authoritative answer, here's how I would
investigate this.

I would first check all DOS 3.1 and 3.2.x disks at hand and see if any of
them have this file selector.

I would also skim thru Call-APPLE, Apple Orchard, and any other magazines
from that time period. I would probably just scan the table of contents for
each issue.
