Nah, that won't work. I've thought about it - but the intended audience is
gonna get frightened if I even suggest that they need to download a 6-10meg
file (compared to the 1meg file I'd be providing) to run the program.
I've already built up various libraries for each OS - the right one is
require'd at runtime - and the Mac and PC versions will be compiled apps,
(MacPerl and Perl2Exe).
I have every intention of writing specific code for the Mac GUI and for the
Windows GUI, I'd just like something real quick so that my beta testers
don't get further annoyed at this "force quitting" that is currently
necessary for Windows...

OXFORDMORBUS DICKTIONARY: Ug - pronounced uh-g (hard 'g' sound)
Verb, New Hampshire slang, meaning: 1) when one shouldn't have to thank
another for additional services or favors rendered as part of a larger
service arrangement but does, the proprietor responds with "Ug". Which
is to "ug" it out, as in a comment tag in HTML code or a REM comment
in DOS.
