Damn, I don't have time... > Better still, someone found a way to do it without requiring Haxies. (example that only works with Safari) Software that makes applications have different behaviour for basic user interface actions is hateful. I don't care whether it's GNU Readline or OCDEV Taboo or gtk+ or the lowly "alias rm rm -i", it's hateful. > (To steal a phrase, if the problem is UI stupidity, and the answer > seems to be a haxie, you don't have a solution, you have two problems.) Calling the frobber that changes the UI behaviour a "Haxie" or a "Plugin" doesn't change the fact that it's a second problem. If the plugin makes different applications behave differently, it's a third problem.There's stuff above here
