Thanks for the info. I've been talking to somebody else about this, and he
clued me in to this information.

I found a way to do this, also. Somebody pointed me to the event command. I
took a loko into it, and it does what I want it to do. My only problem now
is that the event command in my shell only takes two options (raise and
bind). As of yet, I have not found what is creating the new command over the
original (with add, delete, bind, etc.) I can do it with only raise and
bind, I'd just like to figure out why the real command is gone. It seems
kind of wierd.

Anyways, thanks for the help. As a side note, what's up with the Tcl
conference in Boston? I've heard some comments about it, including the fact
that you'll be there. Is it open to the public? I would really like to go to
any talk you might give on Scotty, since I'll be useing it so much in the
future. Can you point me to a location with information about it?
Thanks again,
Robert Seeger
