In general: think of something crazy, and if you just try, you can always find someone who wants it :-P Anyway, 'Enable sounds' should not be in the Account menu for sure. If it goes into some menu, it should be in a 'Settings' menu, or something similar to that. 'Preferences' will be there too in that case (it is now put in Account because of the lack of a better place). So we'll have at least 2 items in there, but that is still not enough to justify an extra menu. If we create an extra menu, and call it 'Tools' we may also put the 'Load/Save CL' in there (yeah I *can* work around ambiguities!!! :-D ) ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
