Perhaps the .README wasn't clear in stating that FlyView requires NeXTSTEP/BackSpace 3.0. Under BackSpace 3.0 you can have "BackModules" as well as "BackO" files. This allows you to neatly wrap all of your module's files in one directory. To install it just drag the icon/file (FlyView.BackModule) into your ~/Library/BackSpaceViews directory or /LocalLibrary/BackSpaceViews, and then launch BackSpace 3.0. On a side note, there is one bug in FlyView. A method gets called from the initFrame: method that attempts to (un)lockFocus on the view. This will (of course) generate error messages in /tmp/console.log and /usr/adm/messages. I'll submit a fixed version shortly. Todd -- NeXTmail: tagreen@cica.indiana.edu
