I think that's a very nice gesture on your part, however I think we're
more interested in compiling a list of programs that just plain don't
work, scripts or no scripts, with JFW.  Please don't forget to include
the Showtime Online air guide and, unless they've done something about
it, the Grollier's Multi-Media Encyclopedia is pretty useless unless
you know the layout of the screen and where things are that you can't
read.  ANother one's Rockettalk, where the buttons on the left side of
the screen are totally JFW-invisible.  ANother one's our favorite
Winamp, which the people who wrote it don't seem interested in
changing, so maybe HJ can figure a way in to that one.
