It's not all that well documented in all cases, but I'll clean that up eventually. Also, I've added to requested ability to override the gui display mode in favor of a console-only mode. The attribute for this is consoleOnly='true' ... Regards, John On Thu, 2002-07-18 at 22:49, John Casey wrote: > I've included a test jelly script.
