Chris & others,

cg> CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS !?!	

The F8 key is mentioned in Oberon0
2001.10.11 also ... so it is not 
new to 2002.06.23.

cg> Although I kept 'yanking
the chain' I got no response - from you people.

Sorry I couldn't answer your question
sooner;  Installed the alpha 2002.06.23
only last weekend.  Your postings about
ML,ML some weeks back gave impetus to 
notice the mention of F8 in the mouse 
configuration viewer. 

A daily schedule for a few minutes of 
reading in the ETH Web site and 
occasionally in a Mod file seems 
helpful.  Installing the alpha release 
in a spare partition is also a good 
exercise.

Keeping up with evolution isn't easy, 
said the grasshopper.  =8~)

cg> F8 toggle also removes the icon ...

So it does!  

Well, seems I can survive using F8 
rather than turn off ML,ML                                                                        permanently.

cg> How would you feel to find out that you'd been driving for the
last 2 years with the hand break on !?

I must have had the emergency brake on
since conception or shortly thereafter.

Incidently, thanks for the tip about 
the HTML module.  It built my Web site.

Regards,       Peter E.
