Safe (icon) image IDs

Fri Nov 11 21:18:28 EST 2005

Scott,

Thanks. If you trick works then the issue is indeed a mime
handling problem - "rev/text" should "rev/bin"... Or something
like that if guess correctly. 

is this a good explanation? See about the mimes mid-msg...

Indeed it is missing FindTabStops() - and a few more handlers
which are integrated into taoo now. I'll wrap a new version
tomorrow morning and furnish an html download page to make
it easier. Now I know what the problem is with the links
I furnish. :)

Thanks for the pointer. I'll update that Saturday morning with
a nice story on the wiki ;)

cheers
Xavier
