Push Card

[dunbarx at aol.com]

This goes back to 1987. The HC team assumed that most people would navigate
like crazy, think rolodex, and being able to retrace ones history would be a
very useful tool.

There should be a "clear recent" command, so that the piles of cards in that
history can be eliminated. But LC has things that make this simple, the
"recentCards" and "recentNames" properties.

Do you mean to also keep a track of my own card id’s and
then eliminate the ones I do not want in the list?

That would probably work but I think I will just write the
code differently for this program.  It is not a big problem
but the ending up where I did not expect just needs to
be fixed and is not going to be very difficult.

thanks for the help!
