Yep, that and the other "stock" approaches was pretty straightforward.

I presume you mean just replacing/augmenting the Javascript output code?
Okay... yeah, I guess I'd agree it can be "taught"... and I guess I'd agree
with the "easily" part.

You can specify your own templates (for any

"pref system???", he says, with an absolutely clueless look on his face...
"what pref system?"


Hope that helps,

It might if you tell me how to access the "pref system"! :-) I don't think
I've read everything about Venkman, but I've read a lot, perused a bit of
code (both at the UI level and at the call/return-hook level), done a little
debugging and a bit more profiling with Venkman... but haven't run into any
pref system! Enlighten me, please!
