Thought I had better mention this so others might realize someone
else has had trouble in the downloading of the zip file (and other
files there).
Somehow IE won't see the download(s) and yet going through AOL
does okay. I couldn't even right-click on the links in IE5 and tell it
to Save Target as...
I mention this especially be cause it's a very rare occurance.

Well, whatever the glitch was AOL seems to have fixed IE5.
Try and figure that one!
I got the demos05.zip file through IE.

Is there a reason you haven't moved to the 3.1g GUI source? Just
wondering...

Thanks. I've uploaded helpdocs05.zip again. This time hopefully it's got

umm... yea... I thought I did do that. Oh, yes, now I remember. I got
about 1/2 way through working on that and then got distracted by other bug
fixes and stuff, and never finished it. It appears that you'll have to wait
at least a little longer. :-(
