Roy, I don't feel that $49.95 is a deterrent as it is a very reasonable price for such a powerful macro language. (I know you agree the price is fair). Theoretically there probably isn't any commercial product an Amiga owner needs to buy as the shareware and PD pgms are of excellent quality. But people do buy commercial text editors and have abandend ED, etc. Of course the ultimate would be for CBM to make deals with people like Charlie Heath for the faster, more versitle and less space consuming ARP commands, Bill Hawes for a command language that puts the Amiga's Execute stuff to shame and someone like Matt Dillon for CSH or Bill's shell which I'm sure will be excellent. These products as well as others whould enhance the Amiga's functionality for new and average users as well as programmers and devlopers 100 fold. Have a wonderful holiday season – thanks for the kind words about the syosps – remember though that without people like you and your contributions to the forum and the Amiga Community we sysops wouldn't have a whole lot to do. It's a cooperative effort on all of our parts and we are all responsible for making the Amiga Forum a wonderful place to be. Well enough mushy stuff….8) Marlene
