TextBooks
---------
Our feature article describes a concept of creating text windows that contain any type of information, similar to post-em notes. These "text books" can contain up to 30K of text, are resizable, can be placed anywhere on the screen, and can be minimized and maximized at will. You can use text books to store just about anything, including BBS numbers, commands, file names, and any other information that might be useful while using MicroPhone. Because TextBooks is a module, it can be used in any MicroPhone settings document.
Hacker's Hangout
----------------
This month's definition of hack: it adds and subtracts, but not much more, it doesn't know decimals or baseball scores. It's a quick and dirty example of how you can write a functional calculator, using MicroPhone's script language.

A grab bag of a dozen icons, ready to install into your MPToolBox file, for use by all of your settings documents.
