Yes, I guess I'll do that, too. Make some sets of my own standard grcs that
look good but have utility more than fancy. Can just create up and down
state buttons, maybe disabled (if needed).

I used to provide for standard HIG button behavior (sliding the cursor out
unhilites, etc.) with "the mouse" (if the mouse is within the rect of
me...else...), but in Rev it should probably be done with 'mouseMove'.

I can't seem to get the behavior to work right with 'mouseMove'. Does anyone
have a generic script?

Haven't had to deal with this before in Rev, because I just worked Mac
stuff.

TIA,
Ken N.
