Just be aware <shudder> there is no way we'd support you
doing this
<shudder> and if you break Rev doing this and lose work and
your computer
explodes we bear no responsibility in any way...

Ummm.........  I think you are laying things on with a
trowel!   I shall try this experiment on one of my 'spare'
computers ("my other car is a mercedes").

The point of my message was not to rub Runtime Revolution
staff up the wrong way (although a bit of that can, at
times, be stimulating) - I just wish there was more
flexibility in GUI personalisation.  I belive that most of
the xTalk community have learnt
HyperTalk/MetaTalk/Transcript/What-D'Ye-Call-It  and
HyperCard/MetaCard/RR in their own highly individualistic
ways (it is the nature of this diversity of learning styles
that has led to such a creative community clustered round
MetaCard/RR) - and as a result do things in many different
ways.  Surely the ability of programmers to customise their
Development Suite is to be encouraged: even if some of them
are as alarmingly retro as myself?
