My comment about COMMON blocks brought several e-mails as well
as this article. I really don't have time to explain the whole
thing, but as many of you know, I'm no big fan of common blocks,
and especially not in widget programs. Any widget program on
my web page will illustrate how to write programs without
them. And, of course, half my book is devoted to this
single topic. :-)

Cheers,

David
