Thanks for this, and it's much appreciated.
Regarding the online dictionary, it seems to be different on the mac
- the tutorials suggest you can use a drill down approach looking for
say messages or commands and then locating the one you want
(serendipitous browse) however on my mac I seem to only be presented
with just a huge list and expected to know the name of the command I
want (targeted search). Is there anyway to get the browse facility?
Cheers again
Si.
