I think that the libraries were supposed to get a little more polishing before we jumped into all the apps, but this may have changed. Try looking through all the libraries for todo lists (there are lots) and see if any tickle your fancy/expertise... Andy Shish wrote: Now, the question is: what

I took a quick look at the tofu page, I have never seen anything like it before but It makes a lot of sense to have a a textviewer thats focused on what we do most -read - instead of Just Another TextEditor. Sounds like a fun project and something that could acually be useable aswell =) Barry
