Has this been addressed in the last autobuiod, or is it yet to come. One
might assume, that the average uer might well be only using one embosser,
and once set up and working, she might never have to look at the dialog
again. Not having an embosser, I only discovered the problem existed when I
replicated the top margin bug using the braille Blazer, and that I was
blaming all the short-comings on the registry. Play it safe, never blame the
programmers for anything.
