<big slap on forehead> I guess this is a sure sign that I am somewhat new at all this, even tho I had fussed around with it a few years ago.

One other question for now... What do the '* +' and '* -' mean in the System Browser next to the package names? I can find no mention of this in the AppDevGuide.

'Everybody' knows that the '*' means that the package has been  
altered and should be versioned into Store at some time.

'Nobody' knows what the '+' and '-' mean. I'd have to look it up  
(probably in the Store manual) but don't really care enough. It has  
often been suggested that these get removed from the browser or be  
augmented with flyby help but neither has happened yet.

* means "has been changed"
+ means "contains overrides of others"
- means "is overridden by others"

Cheers!

I had wondered about those.  Although, from my observations, it looks
like "+" applies to packages that contain any extension of a class
defined in another package.  "-" is indeed only overrides.

I guess the symbols make a certain sort of sense, "+" to say you've
added something, "-" to say you've had something taken from you
(something you originally defined in your package is not currently being
defined by your package).
