Hi,
I also agree (or won't mind)... The thing is, I think
removing the tooltip would make things 'inconsistent', but
it's not that bad since it's not a contact, it's a separate
frame.. but anyways, maybe some people will say they are
used to the tooltip being there, but it won't matter since
it holds no extra info.
The thing is, I think you suggested this because the tooltip
gets on top of the popup window, right ? and it's annoying
on mac, so I would suggest you search/replace and change all
the tk_popup into another function which would do a destroy
.balloon before calling tk_popup.
This way, it will avoid this bug anyway, and will avoid
having it also with the new tooltip Karel suggested..
