as usual (?!?) your program has already "built in" this function. Thanks a lot. It
works fine. And as a side effect it's interesting and of course educational to see
the different coloured bands of twllight now!

I only hadn't to increase the number of active options by one but by about 20.
And I think I will experiment a little bit more with "toolbar.dat". It seems to me that
moving lines to the end of the file will show me only the "wanted" entries to make
the list a little bit smaller. I always wished I could click on a corner of the opened
toolbar window to see more entries at once.

Clear skies
Bernd
