Thinking about this issue some more, I think there's something you can do right now that'd even make practical use of those cells. Have a look at the status cells section of the menu. You can reserve those cells to be status cells, and can even select what's to be presented. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: +1 613 726 0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
