More groups

[Sarah]

Hi Ken,

Try stepping through with the Script Debugger. You will see that Klaus' 
script builds a string from the list of objects in his field, using a 
repeat for each loop. So mylist_to_group ends up containing:
	field 3 and field 2 and button 2 and button 3 and
As it ends with an extra "and", he deletes the last word (word -1 means 
last word - you can use either syntax).
Then he adds the word "group" to the front of his list and uses "do" to 
perform the grouping.

Hope you don't mind me answering this one Klaus, but we're awake over 
here in Oz, while I figured you must be still asleep :-)

Cheers,
Sarah
