BTW, it also speeds up the menu display, which on a 4-bplane screen is fairly slow. The menu function must use Text(), eh? —Mike

"Nearly" everything uses Text(). I think there is an Exec level call that is used occaisionally, but never tracked it down. I just noticed a font other than the one I had substituted in a couple things like alerts, some of the time. Glad to hear of the improvement in a 4-bitplane screen; CLImate does that, too, but it doesn't use menus so I hadn't noticed the speedup in menus.
