Yes yes, here we go, this is exactly the sort of stuff I'm looking for. See, I didn't have enough os x street sense to know that a hybrid command-line/GUI wasn't really meant to be. I've got some code in there for handling .shy drags, so there's a start. I'm not sure if I want to grab .rb from Ruby. We should probably find an extension for plain-text Shoes apps... .roos?? I do have a pair of orange Roos. > Hope this helps, Oh, yes, very much. Shoes is my whole life right now and it means a great deal to me that you stopped for a moment to straighten the record on these things. I'm going to work on the issues you raised and resume more discussion soon. _why
