Yes, they could.

It's the "Erase and Redraw" command.  It just redraws the current file.

It shouldn't be writing in that case -- in the Win/VB-world, click
happens after you let up on the mouse button (heck, it happens after the
double-click delay occurs).  Since you haven't released the button while
dragging, there's no click.

I think I see the problem -- when the selection changes, the poll-file
is updated.  And I'll bet the SelChange event occurs as soon as the
mouse button goes down (because the previous selection is released).  I
need to add logic to not rewrite the poll-file while the mouse button is
down.  I'll get on that for the 2.0.3 update.  Which needs to be soon,
I've been told there are VB5-runtime file dependencies in my code. :O

Yep, I'm playing with that.
