Andrew, I'd love it if you did. But please give Bolot (without
whom.....) and Dan (likewise....) a share of the credit, if any credit
is being given.

And, of course, I'd like to see it written up with the red/blue/yellow
terminology as I'm looking at a way of making the mouse system
independent (so to Squeak) and I'm not sure whether to go this way
(although I've yet to think up an alternative).

The latest version (posted yesterday) is in the usual place:

http://www.penguin-home.telinco.co.uk/Rolodex_Project

and contains some neat shotcuts suggested by Dan.

Best wishes

John
