Yes, well, I can't see why megaroids would cause the problems I have mentioned,
either, which is why I made a point of saying that the only thing I had done
before the error occured was to play megaroids -- indicating to me that the
problem is something in GEM or the OS, and not in megaroids.

BTW, if it is so that GEM sometimes has trouble detecting that the left button
has been released, even so I really can't see why this would have any connection
with the bug I have mentioned:  the "close" gadget in a GEM window just hilights
as though it was an icon being selected, and it does it immediately. Further-
more, it unhilights immediately if you click on it a second time.  And it does
this immediately.  None of these things seem to have anything to do with the
left button being detected as being always down.

The same thing goes with the other bug that makes everything in the GEM window
act like one of the options of the pop-down menu (i.e. whenever you move the
mouse over it -- without the button depressed, even), the icons/filenames
become hilighted for as long as you are over them, just like the menu options.
(the effect is just like running IBM's TopView, for those of you who might
have seen that).  If GEM thought my left button was depressed, then moving
the mouse around would drag the first icon I moved over:  not just hilight
and dehilight them all to no other effect (except to crash the system after
about a minute).

Of course, the reason I reported these things is to find out whether anybody
else has seen them, in the attempt to discover whether it could be a "problem
with my computer" (though it is hard to see what it would be).
