The solution to *all* these problems, of course, is to
have graphics routines that are objects. Then any individual
object "knows" what it is suppose to do. The image objects
in the Catalyst Library are the perfect examples of this.

It's all coming. But Christmas dinner has already been
pushed back to the 28th. (Christmas shopping on the 27th
now.) And Coyote is NO help! He's off to Costa Rica for
two weeks with some young secretary he met at one of his
"Christmas Parties". Sheesh.

Cheers,

David
