What is PopExtras?
	PopExtras consists of two parts, the first being a button which is attached to the bottom of the NotePad next to the keyboard icon etc.  Tapping this button will present you with a pop-up menu containing a user definable list of apps installed on the Newton.  Tapping an app name will open that app!  The second part of PopExtras is the utility that is used to select which apps will be displayed in the popup button.  This utility consists of a scrolling list which contains the apps installed on the Newton (with the exception of the card app).  Tapping on an item in the list with place a check to the left of the app name, tapping again will remove the check. Simple.  There is also a Clear button which will uncheck all items.  Next to the Clear button is an Open button which can be used to open the selected app (whether it is checked or not).  This is useful if you have filled your Extras Drawer.  Checking and unchecking items will be immediately reflected in the popup menu (only visible if you close the Extras Drawer after opening PopExtras).

Some Important Information
	PopExtras will create a union soup called ŇPopExtras:cometÓ, at install time, on your Newton.  This soup is used to store the items that will be displayed in the popup.  I have tested PopExtras rigorously to ensure it does not incur the wrath of the ÔGrip-O-DeathŐ god.  This is not a guarantee, just a fair amount of reassurance ;-)
