This sounds suspiciously like the Cookie Jar.  Interesting...

This is true.  There are two versions of TOS 1.6 out now, one being a bug fix
release of the other.  I haven't taken more than a quick look at 1.6 yet.

PS: Ignac, I still can't get mail to you.  If you still want to have your
QuickST tested with Overscan, I could do that for you.
