John,

I know you and the other developers are doing huge service to the rest of us with your work. I truly wish I had the skills that allowed me to help with this; years of attempts have shown me that this is beyond me, however.

Thank you all.

David

Maybe it is also this way on Windows and Linux, but that is not my understanding. In this "point and click" world, people expect that when they double click on something, that is what gets opened.
