Aren't you the same fellow who just blasted me for my grammar on the net, and then proceeded to blast me again over my ignorance about a term - "localization" (forgetting in the process to address the basic question I asked)? :-( Let's get back to the first question I asked you: What are these products or systems you seem to think exist? Who has the matter "well under control"? There's no need to be hostile. I really don't mind being told I don't know what I'm talking about if my respondent can cite evidence. Can you cite an os or windowing sys- tem that meets the criteria I outlined? Please, no more flames: Facts. -Richard L. Goerwitz goer@sophist.uchicago.edu rutgers!oddjob!gide!sophist!goer
