Newhall a list of "recommended libraries" to be associated with the ESL. Including the library just means it does useful things which are not in the earlier releases of the ESL: because there arzen't too many people around, because these libraries are darn good and why just rewrite them to conform with the internal doc standards, or other reasons like these. Among the list of proposals I sent to the list, most (I think all) the libraries you mention appear. An exception: I chose the original G. Boehme object-to-memory library rather. CChris
