This was what I had in mind to do if no happier answer came in.  Its really
not so bad since I can set GADGIMMEDIATE on the string gadgets I'm worried
about and thus detect when one has been selected and therefore only
monitor INTUITICKS while one of the string gadgets I care about is active,
thereby reducing polling to a minimum.

Thanks for the reference to Tolly.

)In this case, I don't think so.  You might have just sold your Amiga.

Too many of those originally responsible for developing the Amiga have
responded in more or less those words to that line in my .signature, while
I had intended it only as a general metaphysical remark.  That does it!
I'm changing my .signature to something more appropriate to the state
of documentation everywhere.

and And and And and Chips in my Fish-And-Chips sign' have been clearer
if quotation marks had been placed before Fish, and between Fish and
and, and and and And, and And and and, and and and And, and And and
and, and and and Chips, as well as after Chips?"
