I have a weird issue that *seems* to have started since upgrading to

The problem is Revolution is a normal word. Other names, like

You have a very good point. Java is an example of nearly the best possible

one. It is such a cool name that JavaScript took the name too. I think

To do this, I think you'll have to explicitly set the textFont of the

in the global variable chord has no font property - it is simply text.
So you might put something like this at the end of the placeChord

Don't you need to be using libURL for this to work? So before you issue 'put

Another way to solve this problem easily and elegantly, with far more
capabilities than you ask for, with off-the-shelf components:
1. Forget about Rich Text Format.
2. Get a copy of altBrowser from Altuit.
