   Here's one: we want to put WLSAM.com's feed into RB:

   http://rope.wlsam.com/mp3player/wls.pls

   I open the "Add new radio station" box, and attempt to drag the "MP3"
link above into that box.

    Well isn't that a bitch- it worked. It even took the drag-to-panel
and didn't require me to bring up the new-station box.  Hmm.

    Here's the example.  I'm on Slashdot.org.  At the bottom is has
"RSS" though not in the nice little orange box that I remember. That
link is:

http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot

    I drag it to the toolbar (where the other one is, but I can't
remember how it got there) and it gives me a single URL, not a button
with all the headlines in it.

    I'll keep an eye out for the other applications; I've had to use the
terminal for so long, I've forgotten which ones they were!  :)

    And thanks for replying, even if my first example seems to have
worked itself out.  :>
