 <P><I>Be careful that your program does not enter an infinite loop
 while <tt>grab()</tt> is on.  On X this will lock up your screen!</I>
+To avoid this potential lockup, all newer operating systems seem to 
+limit mouse pointer grabbing to the time during which a mouse button 
+is held down. Some OS's may noy support grabbing at all.
