Greetings, It is running smoothly for me under 10.5.3 too.

If you are willing to calculate the screen geometry and manually specify the max size, this should be possible.

You can add icons to arbitrary files by right-clicking on the file, choosing "Get Info," and pasting/drag-and-dropping the desired icon onto the tiny icon in the upper-left hand corner of the info window. The advantage to this approach is it's extremely simple. The disadvantage is only .app directories can be included in the dock as applications :-\ >> A comment on networking: Since 9vx uses the host's IP stack, >> two instances can't open the same port.
