Try a validation string of "r6,13" to make a button that slabs down
dark-green instead of orange.

Kt has plenty of effect on the last icon... the caret wraps around to the
first writable icon. Also Shift-TAB makes the caret move backwards through
the writable icons, wrapping at the first...

I like the new colours chosen for the borders in 3.10 over 3.00 - they look
more like the colours used in Interface - lighter greys.

Also you can specify the co-ordinates of the hotspot: eg. Pptr_write,4,4
All of this is very Interface-like...
Cheers, Julian.
