[Squeakland] Copy problem

[Kim Rose]

Hi, Phil -
If you have all the updates loaded into Squeak, and select the "Pen 
Use" category in the viewer, you'll see a "trailStyle" tile -- you 
can now set the "trail style" to "dots" and have the object lay down 
a series of dots....(as opposed to a line or arrowhead).  I don't 
know if this will give you the desired outcome for your 
application/etoy, but it just may be simpler than what you are trying.
cheers,
Kim
