He he - it's all in VB isn't it?  I think I'll be leaving it alone ;-)

OK, I didn't know it was all so tightly integrated.  I guess things
like the MVP menus would be even harder to separate too.

It could be very useful - and for more than just alternate front
ends.  Your webcam display for example would be simple to do as an
app sending a message to xplRioNet, as would text-to-speech or other
on-the-fly announcements or sound effects.

Anyway no rush - I've got plenty to be getting on with just with
