File Naming

[Michael Correll]

I see what you mean now.  That is indeed a horse of a different  
color.  And the fact that the user can create more windows  
complicates things.
This is not ideal, but perhaps you could use an AWT box in a  
relatively inconspicuous corner of the window and display the file  
name or window name or other information with one or more of the  
various info( functions?  Not necessarily pretty....but it could work.

That's the best I can come up with off the top right now.  I suspect  
others here may have a better solution for you.

MC.
