[Clippings] problems with installation

[Alex Eng]

Good to hear that it's now working... strange that the Clippings icon
hadn't appeared before but now does.

Having spent most of my time on both Windows and Linux systems, I
forgot that CTRL+clicking will bring up the context menu on the Mac.
(And no, I do not wish to start an OS flame war here....)

I appreciate your offer to volunteer to do Mac testing.  I'll
definitely call upon Mac users on this mailing list when I need some
testing done.

Thanks!


Alex
