I apologize for the back-to-back requests... This is for another individual in my group.

In this world of mice and windows, it seems that everyone (OpenLook, Motif, Microsoft, etc) lets you DOUBLE CLICK displayed images in order to initiate an action (load, open, etc.).

It would seem that the way to do this is to set timers and flags and trap the DC event in your own code.  Thats what I'm doing, and it works fine... Is this what others are doing?  Am I attempting to re-invent some wheel that is, as of yet, unknown to me?

If there is something that will keep me firmly on the "standards" trail and/or save me un-necessary effort and/or make my code work better and/or keep me from appearing ignorant when others look at my code,  please let me know.
