Unfortunately the space after the item name displays with the same face. Is it possible to prevent this? This probably isn't for the release, but I think toolbar functionality maps better onto text only terminals than the menubar because there are no pull down menus to worry about. -- Nick http://www.inet.net.nz/~nickrob
