If you're happy, I'm happy. Will somebody (Kim? Monty?) please check this in? I can't get to SourceForge's CVS from work, and I just had a boot hard drive crash at home.

Not > enough to worry about though.. looks fine.. I don't actually run the sizing regex's for the Ucomics: they are ALYWAYS the same size. I think the offsets and so forth may be due to nothing so much as the desktop theme. Since my version does the resize on the whole window, instead of just the document/comic space, the sizing should compensate for the total size of the title bar, window edges, and such. But, there's no way to find out how big the window is in IE, so there's no way to get the resizing exactly right on every desktop. I guess, if we wanted to be tricky about it, we could add some arbitrarily large number of pixels to the width and height on resize, then center the comic in the window. There would be too much white space around the image for most people, but it would never be too small. > > > While we're about it, we should throw in a > > list of daily preferred comics, so I don't have to type them on the > > line (Yes, I do remember localaliases.txt). > > heehee aliases are your friend!... > > > What about title bars?
