Dear All:

In the Animation control widget, I am developing for WebExport, I use some of 
the standard button icons used in Jmol.  Up to this point we have kept all the 
resources for WebExport in the WebExport/html part of the .jar file.  The 
question is whether we should continue to keep this completely independent of 
Jmol?  Should I move copies of the Icons to that part of the .jar file as well?

Here are the considerations as I see them:

1) If the resources for WebExport are all in one place they are easier to keep 
track of as the WebExport is changed;
2) WebExport has evolved to the point where it is no longer functional outside 
of Jmol (we should clean up the code that allows for independent launch), 
therefore I no longer see a strong need to keep resources for WebExport and the 
rest of Jmol separate;
3) If WebExport uses icons and images from the Jmol resource base, we will only 
have to update images in one place;
4) Using the Jmol resources will require some rewriting of WebExport's resource 
access code so that it can access general Jmol resources and WebExport 
resources cleanly.

Thoughts?

Initially, I am going to move copies of the icons, since that takes less of my 
time.

Jonathan
