Very kind of you, Brian.  Thanks!  Much obliged.

I just gave it a whirl and it seems to work rather well.  MUCH better 
for me than embedding an entire browser app inside my app just to get a 
good pinch.

Since I was working on an image rather than a graphic, I modded the 
script to use a script-local object specifier rather than the hard-wired 
graphic reference, then added a mouseDown handler to trigger your init 
so I could test it easily.

While I was at it I re-wrapped a few things to hopefully fit better here 
for others to easily copy-n-paste.

Thanks again - it's nicely done.

@Michael Doub:  another candidate for MasterLib?
