Fab4Linux

[Vaughn Treude]

BoBB,

Thanks for the insight on the library issue.  I'll look into using this 
approach for the real install.  Actually, it was a bug in the install script, 
it wasn't supposed to overwrite the existing libraries, oh well.   Putting 
them in the "Fab" directory should be a safer approach.

As for the size of the thing, the keys are bitmaps so they can't be scaled; I 
have to create a new, smaller set of them for the next version.  I'll also 
add an option to hide the dialog frame - tried to do that for version 1.02, 
but didn't get that working yet.

Thanks again for the feedback.
