<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:"Courier New"'>Ok, but the reason I have a separate Morph for each
digit is that it makes the mouse interaction a lot easier to do as I mouse over
each morph, highlight it and let it capture the wheel/keystrokes. The parent
will have the single domain number and can load the digits initially and be
informed when one changes. What I am after is understanding the morphic event
system or perhaps just an event system. Not from the point of view of events
generated from the mouse, keyboard etc but in code when I decide there is
something another object might need to know about. At the moment I give the
object a block to execute which is really little more than a callback to
execute when a certain condition is met, so an empty block evaluates to nil and
nothing happens. This is the wrong way to do it and I want to make it a pure
event system. The sender of the event should not be concerned who the receivers
are or even if there are any receivers. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:"Courier New"'>It's easy enough to code up a notifier class such
that senders just send their named events to a notifier instance and event listeners
register their interest in named events and then receive those events. At least
it's easy in languages I know, I am still struggling a bit with the
syntax and class library. I simply thought that there must be a class that does
that somewhere.</span></font></p>
