  Log:
  Improve the alert boxes put up for file open/read/write errors.  (Some
  influence came from
  
  http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/mac/HIGuidelines/HIGuidelines-232.html
  
  which has a section on dialog box and alert box messages.  However,
  we're largely dealing with technoids, not with The Rest Of Us, so I
  didn't go as far as one perhaps should.)
  
  Unfortunately, it looks like it's a bit more work to arrange that, if
  you give a bad file name to the "-r" flag, the dialog box pop up only
  *after* the main window pops up - it has the annoying habit of popping
  up *before* the main window pops up, and sometimes getting *obscured* by
  it, when I do that.  The removal of the dialog box stuff from
  "load_cap_file()" was intended to facilitate that work.  (It might also
  be nice if, when an open from the "File/Open" menu item fails, we keep
  the file selection box open, and give the user a chance to correct
  typos, choose another file name, etc.)
