Hi,

Recent updates just checked in:
- refactoring of the GUI - Tools is now called Desktop and split out 
into 20 smaller classes
- removal of dtools, and various other useless classes
- updating to javamail 1.3 not for any good reason other than the old 
(1.2) jar was bust

The best bugfix is that the tabbed/MDI views now have half way decent 
names for the tabs.
Feedback welcome.

And a bug I'm finding hard to crack - kudos to whoever knows about this:

The look and feel selector works fine except that all GUI components 
created after the last L&F change take on the Java L&F regardless of 
whatever is current. So if you are in Windows L&F mode, everything looks 
fine until you start creating new tabs and then the bottom tabs have a 
Java L&F in the middle of an otherwise Win L&F GUI!

I change L&F using UIManager.setLookAndFeel(plaf); in
  org.crosswire.common.swing.config.LookAndFeelChoices.setLookAndFeel(...)
Any clues?

Joe.
