Re: “You are speaking GREEK to most of us... Zim might understand you but most of us do not...”
You're familiar with the idea of cutting and pasting images, text or urls from articles. When I do that with an article, I try to include as much of the original behind-the-scenes code as I can - including the article's images, subtext beneath the images, hyperlinks (phrases in the article that can be clicked on), bolding, formatting and so on. Often there's a decent amount of manual labor to get things looking right before I can post what I've cut. Now, I have a program that does most of the work. I "cut" the text and code I want from an article, double-click an icon on my desktop, and "paste" into AtomicBobs. It takes about that long. I don't have to save what I've cut or edit it. The icon is my program, and it makes dozens of changes to what I've cut so that it will display correctly (or *almost* correctly since there are still some things my program doesn't do) when I save.

I always get pleasure out of an initial effort that saves me time and money in the long run. It doesn't matter if we're talking programming . . . or cherry trees. Or sheds! I'm sure you can appreciate that. And if I learn something interesting along the way, then so much the better.

Programmig was something I never had an interest in. So all I can say is Good luck with your endeavors and project!

I will be content to stick with the hardware aspects of them and modify them to what I want.

I guess I am not as ambitious as I once was. lol!!!!

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
