Thanks, John in Kansas. As always, you have much valuable information and share it often on mudcat.

Regarding opening another window and hovering over a link in Safari, I figured out how to do it. Showing or hiding the status bar (option top right drop down for Safari settings) lets me hover.   New window option (option top right drop down menu for current page) lets me open another window. Apparently it's all there except scratching Foolestroupe's bum. Good luck with that.
