	I have some good news for you Black Box owners...Andrew Welch, the
author of BlackBox , has been hard at work for the last couple of months 
working on a project originally called Menagerie, and now called QuickTools
(to be marketed commercially by Casady & Greene, inc.).
	QuickTools will be a package of five utilities whose functionality 
originally began as the individual pieces of BlackBox, and then grew from there.
Included in the package are:
	Functionality - Makes the F1-F4 keys work as they are marked
	Dialog Power - Gives cmdKey equivalents to checkBoxs, radioButtons and
pushButtons in your dialogs and alerts.
	SunSet - A modular screen saver (like AfterDark or Pyro 4.0)
	Snipper - THE BEST SCREEN CAPTURE UTILITY TO DATE!  (Anyone who has
ever tried to capture _JUST_ one window/dialog or _JUST_ one menu will LOVE this
as it has a special mode for 'windows/dialog' and menus.  You have to see this
to believe it!
	PowerStrip - this is the NeXT-like application doc which is now movable,
resizable, and hidable.  It also supports document launching!

	Although I have not confirmed this with C&G, QuickTools will ship in
time for MacWorld SF (or Andrew will be in trouble ;-)

Disclaimer: I have been working with Andrew getting the last couple of bugs 
and features taken care of and have written some of the Sunset modules so I
guess that makes me baised....
