RE: *** ADMIN: Booth Martin

Well, you just know there's been a lot of lobbying in Heaven to add radio buttons and scroll bars to their 5250 screens....

My condolences also.

As I recall, Booth had a website with examples of 5250 display files
using scroll bars and mouse clicks.  Perhaps that could be preserved as
a part of midrange.com with appropriate credits to Booth.

Folks:

I just found out that Booth Martin passed away last August.

I don't know all the details ... but his daughter Brett posted this on
facebook...

"Fair winds...
On August 5th I lost my dad. He died unexpectedly and without
complications, for which I can be grateful.
Of all the things I learned from him, and there are thousands of
lessons,   the greatest was humility.  "Whenever you feel
indispensable, put your thumb into a cup of water.   Pull it out and
notice the hole that's left." Welp, that always proved true until this
time. I'll miss you,  dad. Thanks for every single memory. "

I've asked Brett if there was a charity important to Booth that
midrange.com could make a donation to in his memory.
