Here is my wish list:

- HTML help files included with binary
- list of array variables in menu Symbols-View-Variables
- goto line doesn't seem to work (if patch isn't currently included with d/l)
- iconise all windows command in Window menu
- Goto sel in top level Search menu instead of its own Search-Goto-Goto 
menu.  This to make the goto command easier to get to.
- multiple bookmarks (at least 10), with its own bookmarks menu, instead of 
just the one bookamark in the Search-Goto menu.
- a version of SN with compiled executable tcl/tk files instead of the 
interpreted format for improved execution speed (if not already done).
- and last but not least, reduced memory usage if possible
