Hi Hendrik,

First of all... thanks for the compliments. They're VERY much appreciated.
Secondly, please download version 0.04a instead of trying 0.03a. That
version had a few nasty bugs that I've eliminated in 0.04a.

You have quite an impressive "wish" list there. I'll keep your ideas in a
folder for future reference. As you can imagine, It's quite a daunting task
just to kill all the bugs in these early versions, so I don't think I'll be
looking too far ahead just now.

I would like some more info about the statusbar problem you mentioned. You
can send it to my email address if you wish.

Thanks again... Gary.
