see reply to staz. someone took the last train to gloopsville [but I'm a

alain is the cerberus of the pouch.
do you get underscore problems, too? i don't, not in my mails, nor in
others... perhaps it ain't the server, but specific listees' mail servers...

wow! a digest reply!


PS -> solution

alain slipped in a condition... have to press the option key to launch, if
you want to restore previous behaviour then comment as follows:

LOCAL FN doEvent
DIM evt AS ^EventRecord
evt = EVENT
LONG IF evt.what = _mbutdwnevt
// LONG IF evt.modifiers and _optionKey%
FN FindAndLaunchURL
// END IF
END IF
END FN

the old grey bearded one also informs me that OSState is a LONG, not a byte,
so you could correct that also [2 places in the code]. This'll make sure
that those at the back of the class have been paying attention.
