No apology is necessary for a program behavior that is easily corrected (by resizing) for a program I use all the time to analyze my club and tournament games and find version 0.95 perfect for me. I really, really, like it and need to send you some money soon. (I'm thinking 10% of my Scrabble winnings this year, but so far that would be only $4.50.) I just found the flickering board an interesting behavior, since it must require some sort of test that says "if it's size A and the letters available window is size B, change it to size C and the letters available window to size D" and another test that says "if it's size C and the letters available window is size D, change it to size A and the letters available window to size B" creating some sort of infinite loop. But since I can't read the code, I can't tell for sure if that's the problem, and thought you may have found the problem while working on future versions. If you don't do another thing to Quackle, I'd still recommend it to Scrabble players everywhere. I wasn't complaining about the flickering, just curious as a former programmer. Thank you for Quackle, Bruce D'Ambrosio PS. If you ever make an even faster or cut-down version of Quackle, you should call it Quickle. ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
