Hmm.  I use Moire Cdev, and have had no problems.  Icon-It! does clash
with QuicKeys, but otherwise I've had no problems.

Oddly enough, MacroMaker will handle this job.  Last night, someone asked
me to explain what the deficiencies of MacroMaker were, and I tried the
"close window" example.  To my surprise, a macro made from clicking on the
close box always seems to close the active window.

I believe that the biggest deficiency in MacroMaker is the documentation.
If the person that wrote the QuicKeys manual had written the MacroMaker
manual, people might find out that it's a lot more useful than it looks.

Now, if MicroSoft BASIC would just refrain from bombing when MacroMaker
and QuicKeys are installed...
