This is off-topic, but anyway: MCTool is absolutely wonderful. When I created my ImageMapEditor, I found myself not knowing where to even begin learning about Morphic. I knew I wanted something like Monticello (in the sense of having a row of buttons at the top of the morph), so looked at how MC did things. And MCTool blew me away!

(To avoid a dependency on Monticello, my ImageMap package copies lots of code out of MCTool, but I really wouldn't mind seeing something like MCTool outside of Monticello - it really is a fantastically useful class.)
