Believe it or not the response that I have heard is that people are more
comfortable within a browser because it has a "forward and back button". I

keeping everything in the same window) and they can leave a trail of

Okay, I'm just finishing up this word processing program (which may
be of interest to the MetaCard community... more on this in just a

custom type ( "NTTX" in this case ) . N

I'm using a number of paired fields as tables with a thin field
acting as the table headings and a body field holding the main
content of a given table. Most of the tables only need vertical
