RE: to Jamal--EdSharp & nonprinting characters

Hi Jackie,
At this point, I don't know enough about compiling a C# program to get it to 
compile on my system. And like you, I would like to make changes to the program 
and contribute to it. I'm not real patient with myself sometimes. I'd love to 
learn to purposely get myself in the right frame of mind any time I want to.

& 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.
