David [et al]

this was the point of my post. Alain, and others, had remarked how nice the
system was, but also that we couldn't cut and paste.
The objective of my post - which [re]started this thread, was to provide a
way to launch in a simple manner a standard browser and allow this
operation. It wasn't pretty perhaps, but it avoided reinventing the wheel,
or in this case, the Help System, for the fifteenth time.

When the Apple approved way is also a clear winner, ok. But Apple
*sometimes* tend to prefer 'cool' over practical or even good.

PS. We could save a lot of bandwidth if folks read posts before replying,
but oh well, I don't suppose that that will change. (This ain't aimed at
david, btw).
