Hi Mike, Nice work ;-) I'm glad you find my list somehow useful. But I don't think those functions should be in the style(official version) by default. The style is designed and can be used for very wide range of usage(I'm planning to write some more demos and tutorials about it when the styles-pack website will be up and running). So I left intetionally all those tiny but useful functions (which are handy for custom application) to be written by developer who is using the style as kind of "customizable low-level grid engine". Anyway, this leads me to an idea it would be good to be able create/store/use some form of "list configuration" so people could make them and easily share and use different list-setups for diffferent applications. I'm planning to create simple website for the styles-pack so It would be a good place for such things. If you have any comments ideas just let me know either here on ml or privately.
