Re: to Jamal--EdSharp & nonprinting characters

& this is *precisely* why I put it out on list instead of a private
email. Truth be told, I'd use it in a new york heartbeat over
Microsoft word, which I consider to be both a resource hog & seriously
bloated, as well as a possible security threat w/its potential for
macro viruses, etc. I should just pour thru Jamal's source code & see
if I could change the relevant parts myself, but picking thru some1
else's code can take a huge amount of time, so, being busy (never mind
lazy), I just figured I'd ask the guru himself.
