GeorgeGwilt's Window design Program which is being updated was limited to 30 loose items, 10 spaces being allocated to system sprites. However we have learnt that Dilwyn has 97 in his Launchpad program! (It is amazing what George can do with NetPeek!) So George is taking steps to ensure that programmer can specify the number of loose items in SetW as it will be called.
