Thank you very much for that careful assessment. Oy, my bad. In Jmol 11.7.45
I mistakenly turned all functions starting with _ global (shared between
applets). Prior to that it was the other way around -- that functions NOT
starting with _ were shared. But the reason those were NOT global was that
state scripts use that _ prefix. It was a poor choice all around. I've now
set both Jmol 11.8.8 and Jmol 11.9.7 to consider all functions to be local
functions unless they explicitly start with "global_".
My VPN is down or I would upload these files tonight; they will have to wait
until tomorrow.
