 >OS X
unlike all other unix systems that i've used, a program that starts in OS X 
and prompts for a file, tries to open the file in the directory containing 
the  exec. i thought i got over this by using the environment variable PWD 
which points to the working directory. if the user plaves a / or . or ~ or 
some unix like character, i do not use PWD. i don't have a CNS map on my 
development system, so i might have a bug there

my hopes that smooth lines had come to all OS X systems remains a hope. we 
have smooth lines on a G4/geforce 2 mx, and a G3 powerbook but jagged lines 
on a new ibook, and an old G3/ati rage system.

 >paint_zone
does not expect an ID. pa_obj_zon does, so a macro
-------
pa_o_z
wait_id
wait_id
spin
-----------
will not spin until 2 ids are  made

 >true O web site
there is only one 'true' o web site (see end of message) and all links work 
( as far as i know).
