This script creates a small remote control that lets you pick
a frame, reload it or move back and forward through its history.

Unlike the window remote control, this remote lets the reader
select which window to manipulate. The selection list is
created automatically by recursive descent of the frames tree.
The window to manipulate is built up from the remote's
<FONT COLOR="770000">opener</FONT> pointer and the
selected text.
