- Hmmm... Gee--you're right. Grab is somewhat defective. I now remember
- sending in a bug report to that effect during the 3.0 Beta-test program, but
- forgot about it in my previous posting. But actually, back then Grab would
- work from the Services menu, BUT you had to launch it manually before it would
- register. But now under the final release of 3.0 it seems that Grab won't
- register itself no matter what! What an improvement. Sorry for my
- misinformative posting!
