Test Pilots Wanted

Folks -

I attach two changesets that are somewhat more likely than usual to cause problems in code outside the system (maybe even within).  I would greatly appreciate it if some adventurous Squeakers out there would try out these changes and report anything amiss to me.  (If you don't test them now, you'll be testing them after the next bunch of updates ;-).

The change to rectangle>>copy is simply a move to consistency with the philosphy of Rectangles as funtional objects, and should cause no problems (heh-heh).

The new implementation of italics is *much* nicer looking for any large font (try a big italic before and after).  However it makes several changes in the text kernel, and my testing of MVC has not been extensive (heh-heh).  Note that this new code will only take effect after you have saved, quit, and resumed, due to caching.

Keeping you from getting bored

	- Dan
