Books play an important role in my life too. So do women, so i want the address & phone no of chicks with pd on the help menu ;o) Seriously my point was not that books are uncool but 1) you cannot access them by clicking through 2) we may not want to link to non-free resources. But again, i don't object i just brought these aspects up. I welcome all fun stuff in my help menu, up to the available screen height. Andras
