Sorry, it is version 1.1.2

Maybe, I have to shorten it a bit, looks probably a bit
confusing...
I am looking for a python function to include png Graphics
at the cursor position; would be nice if I can apply all
those settings for graphics too, e.g. positioning, size,
boarders and most important, the connection to a different
macro by clicking on the inserted picture. Would be nice, if
the clicking event could be connected to a different python
script, which reads the name of the picture and opens the
corresponding tex-file.
The next thing I am badly looking for is a way to get access
to the archive of this list. It seems that the threads
expired pretty fast...
Would be nice to hear some ideas!
Greetings!
Fabian
