Ian, Thanks for the Goodies

I've been using my own Currency and CurrencyToText classes for almost a year
and they've worked out pretty well ... until recently.  I wrote a data
reader that reads numbers from a text file and it was taking a long long
time.  So I looked at what was going on, using Ian's Profiler, and it showed
almost all activity was taking place in ScaledDecimal.  I assumed that since
my Currency class was subclassed from ScaledDecimal, that's where the
bottleneck was.  So then I took out the Currency and CurrencyToText classes
and filed in Ian's CurrencyToText class and it zips on through.

Thanks, Ian, for the Profiler, for the CurrencyToText class, and for all
your other Goodies et al.

Louis,

Thanks for the kind words Louis, and I'm glad you find the goodies useful.

This might be a good time to say that with the coming of Dolphin 5 in the
near (or not too distant??) future I will have to go through all the goodies
to make sure they still work (and are still needed). If anyone has got any
suggestions for improvements, additions or whatever then now would be a good
time to mention it, especially as I sometimes tend to have a long "thinking
about it" time.  Please mail me with any requests

Regards
    Ian

Ian, I too would like to thank you for many goodies over the years.

I've subclassed you file browser and added functionality similar to Window's
explorer, like cutting and pasting files an folders... Its crude by your
standards but it serves my needs. If you'd like to have a look I'll email
you the package.

Thanks again,
Dino Rosati

OK! it's my turn for a round of thanks ...
Ian, for all your goodies and especially for the printing package!
Louis, for your tutorials. It helped kick-start my project!
and everyone else who have shared their Dolphin goodies and other helpful stuff...
I hope to be good enough to do the same. :-)
