Just trying to be helpful.
I bet Daniel and/or the folks at Microworlds are already figuring out how to
automatically provide a way of informing the user that a Microworlds program
is loading and predicting how soon it may be done. Also how to keep it
from interfering with other open windows.
Lisa, it might be a good idea to post a notice that after the click the
program will load and will take about xx minutes to finish. I don't know if
it is possible to provide an option to not load the music. You might also
recommend that the user not try to surf, etc. as the program loads.
Lots of issues to consider in the Information Age. I congratulate you Lisa,
and Wendy also of course, for wading in where no one has waded before.
