OK, thanks very much, I'll give it a go.  My brain is full, currently, so I 
won't do it straightaway.

As you say, I guess we're not in Kansas anymore.  I'll start a new thread if 
I have anything useful to add.

I took a look and realized I should have pointed you specifically to F-
Script Anywhere, under the Extras directory.  It's an app that allows
you to add an "FSA" menu to a running application.  Make sure you see
the note in the "Read Me" about installing FScript.framework.  Also I
had to run the Terminal commands in "How to install.txt".

Having done those two things, launch F-Script Anywhere and specify
what app to hook into.  If that succeeds, go to that app and under the
FSA menu select "Browser for Target...".  The cursor will change to a
crosshair allowing to select a window that you want to inspect.
You'll get a browser window that lets you inspect the window's ivars.
It also lists all the messages it responds to and allows you to send
any of those messages.

I don't want to drag this thread too far from the original question,
so if you want to follow up you may want to start a new thread or, as
you say, take it elsewhere.  Note that the above is everything I know,
I'm not an F-Script expert.
