It was just a bunch of small code snippets and Qs.

ANYHOOOOOO, I solved 1 Q, and that brought up another Q:

When I call GUIask mega-widget, and use ' -label => $header_msg' the $header_msg gets printed outside the Frame(); when I use '-text => $header_msg' then the $header_msg gets printed inside the Frame().

Why the difference here? The second case ('-text => $header_msg') is what I wanted.

OH! BTW: I tried to get an acct here. I didnt get an email. I will check Trash, but dont count on it; I have already thrown much stuff out today...
