Is there some standard way of lynching software authors, and does anyone
know Pradip's address? (Atari Works uses forms for almost everything,
including the printing progress dialog!!! Forget multitasking with AW).
Using a form for progress is MAJORLY BAD, because it is just that time
that the user will want to switch to some other application.
In fact, gaudy progress meters are a bad idea in general.
... and can we vote on the short-cuts now and move on? (to app-defs.sys)
