ROTFL

It was worth it then ;) I have relatively stubby fingers, so I could not
manage your super excellent method. Here is an alternative for others with
my affliction:
Get a box of pencils from out of the cupboard and some sticky tape. Whilst
dangling eight pencils in mouth leaning forward over keyboard, adjust each
'prodder' till positioned over keys. Now, with all prodders in place,
frantically bind together using a wide stirring motion beneath your chin. Now,
every time you want to bring the ticker window to the foreground you can
just pick up your widget and tap the keyboard ;) <-- OK, I didn't try it.
Sl�n anois,
