Sent under separate cover....

Well, as much as I'd love for you to have a 5200, I guess I'll have 
to settle for helping you! :-)

That's all I meant. I can't figure out how to save an existing 
graphic to work on it. Tonto seems to save a different graphic than 
the one I selected. Also, it doesn't seem to recognize bmp files for 
loading back into Tonto.

It's strange, because while working on the Marantz CCFs, Tonto 
apparently allows me to insert "Timer" actions (which aren't 
supported), but doesn't allow the "Delay" action.

You are the best! I'll pass my public congratulations on for the hard 
work you've done. Like I said before, I find TSS very unreliable for 
up/downloading (taking an average of 6-8 tries before the CCF takes). 
Tonto is so much more reliable, that even with the current niggling 
bugs, I'm using it for my editing!
