Is there any hard and fast definition on the behavior of windows within
ST-80.  By this, I mean who counts on the behavior, e.g., the refreshing
of uncovered windows?  Following this tangent, what standard definition
of windows, window controls, icons, menus etc.. exist?  I understand
tradition and convention, but how much latitude is there in implementation
of these (and related user interface) functions.

Following on, is there anything future implementaions of a Smalltalk
user interace can learn from all of the adaptations of its user interface
(Mac/Amiga/Gem/etc...)?  (international?)

	Thanks,

	Steve Sanderson
