In the Mac native interface, right-clicking (or control-clicking) is already used to bring up the closeup for a unit, but that could be changed. As for the problems with right-clicking in the Mac tcltk interface, this is a bug which should be fixed. Another thing that I found while looking into overruns is that left-clicking on an enemy unit now only works from adjacent cells. If you do it from further away, you get the "no room" error message. This is new behaviour that came in recently, perhaps as a consequence of the path-finding code. The old behaviour, which I think made sense, was that if I clicked on an enemy unit, my unit would move to a position adjacent to the enemy unit and then prompt for instructions what to do. Alternatively, one could make it possible to schedule a move + overrun task this way. Hans
