Continued from previous message . . . Like you I love this machine. But I can't program it to do the things I need it to do. It's like having a Mercedes Benz that will only make right hand turns. I need to make left hand turns too. Everyone is buying Chevys 'cause they can turn left _and_ right. People are flocking to the chevys in droves. I stand here and smugly say 'fools, my MB is a _much_ better car. But I can't get to work in it. I can only run around in circles. While their chevys get them everywhere they want to go. Come on Ben. Get me an auto-trace program. A 'Fontagrapher' like program. How about a Digital Darkroom program. Automatic blends (tints and shapes). Map text to a path. Clipping paths. These are basic tools that are easily available in MSDOS, will be improved rapidly or expanded. While we sit here with our little jewel of a machine waiting. For What? Well, maybe Unix. Rich
