Your suggestions are spot on. I was thinking there might be a squeak way of
doing this lurking just out of sight. Same as I discovered that a thoughtful
collection of morphs will do what I thought would require massive
programming.

Last weekend I played with table layout in a text morph, trying to
understand what all those options do ... alignment, spacing, etc. I did not
get very far. Next time I will try a PasteUpMorph and hopefully I'll get
father.

I do not think it wise to recreate Excel in smalltalk. Better to have a
smalltalk object that does spreadsheet kinds of things in a smalltalk way.

Ok, never mind, I was just giving some pointers. Sorry if they are not
useful.
