Shao doesn't have a resize alternative in his external (btw, I really
like his external.  It does a lot of things I need).  If there is an
external out there I'd love to try it.

I ended up using my own button as a resizer but the trick, as pointed
out by Jacque, was to NOT continually poll for a mouseDown in
mouseMove x,y

Would love to see it run faster but for now it's better than was previously.
