I am just glad it is working. The feeling I get reading your webpage is that you take pride in detecting (presumed) shortcomings of the standard distribution and offering (presumed) fixes for them. I dislike it because I don't agree with many of the supposed shortcomings you point out, and because I think you're *taking* options from the user (at least, from the novice user). Pre-packaged releases with lots of goodies stink of patronizing to me. > And some of those things that you call ad-hoc solutions are just that I > follow the Window's API. That means nothing. There are a gazillion ways to use them. Juanma
