But, Suitcase II's interface is so elegant !!! Have you ever seen the BIG and all-encompassing window that MasterJuggler forces to you to face ???? The author of Suitcase II did a good job by keeping the sub-dialog boxes (for open inspect, show, settings .. etc) within the confines of its root dialog box, which only occupies less than half of the screen even on the Plus's 9-inch moniter. Well, MasterJuggler also keeps all of its dialog boxes within the confines of it's root dialog box, BUT the root dialog box already covers the entire screen. -EOF- ________________________________________________________________________ Xiaoxia Ye INTERNET/BITNET/UUCP: xxiaoye@eleazar.dartmouth.edu Dartmouth College For more info: finger xxiaoye@eleazar.dartmouth.edu
