indeed! yes, thanks for this headsup Doug, I will check this.

I'm in love with GetTextInRects though at present I gotta say, for this
terminal emulation product I'm scripting. it's proved far more reliable
really, than GetTextInFrame has, especially when needing to auto speak stuff
upon a new FrameSet loading, which is a utility Jim snowBarger wrote for me
to be able to swap in and out whole screenFrameSet environments. but the
trouble is, sometimes there's timing issues with GetTextInFrame, when tha'ts
just happened, that GetTextINRect, doesn't seem to suffer from, plus, when
you need to get really fancy, with GetTextInRacts, you can vary their
coordinates on the fly based on calculations you can do based on other
screen Conditions! which to my knowledge you can't easily do, using
GetTextInFrame. it has to be static and that's kinda it.
