How to find amazing stuff (was: Re: Where do I find Trevors Enhanced QT Externals?)

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Eric,

I just tried the Search Engine you mentioned. There appears to be a  
very serious flaw to the Search engine - causing Revolution to  
unexpectedly quit and probably doing other damage as well, since my  
only recourse was to reboot. Even the dock was unresponsive. If I  
tried to reopen Rev, it appeared to reopen with the startup Rev  
Splash screen, but then was nowhere to be found. I realize I'm not  
being very specific, but this all was caused (twice) by clicking in  
the small black (color selection) box that appears in the upper right  
portion of the Search results window, the one that says it lets you  
select a color for keywords. As soon as the color selection dialog  
appeared and I attempted to change the color, Rev quit and the other  
things I mention occurred requiring that I reboot.

Just thought you'd like to know, since you say you wrote that part of  
the docs.

I'm running Rev 2.8.1 on OS 10.4.9 with an Intel Mac Dual Core. The  
first time it happened I had Isolator 1.0 turned on. The second time,  
I did not. Neither time did I have any other applications open;  
running  Safari as the web browser.
