Sorry about this repost, I forgot a subject on the first one! Since so many people are using so many different sets of widgets (homegrown, borrowed, purchased, etc.) and there is a large amount of "wheel reinventing" going on, I thought that I would try to make a list of what public domain widgets are available and where they can be obtained from, so we can maybe do some sharing. Does any such centralized widget directory exist? If not, I'll volunteer to construct one, if people send me a description of the widget sets available (homemade widgets or standard packages that people are aware of). If people send me a short note describing (1) widget pacakges that they know of, (2) what widgets the packages contain, and (3) where the package can be obtained from, I'll accumulate the replies and repost a centralized "Widget directory" to this news group (assuming I get enough replies). If people want commercial widget packages also, I'll include them too. / Brian Totty o o /__ __ o 406 E.
