Benjamin,
Thanks a lot. I already googled text pal, found some useful description of
it at the Fred;'s Head Companion site, and was convinced to download it,
using the link provided. I guess I'll figure out its special qualities by
experimenting with it or seeing if it has much in the way of explanation in
its help section.
Thanks again. And, seriously, there's a lot more difference between Text Pal
and Pay Pal then the difference between T and P. It's a cute mistake that is
another process involving exchanging two entire words, in this case because
they're both followed by "Pal." That's like confusing James Smith with
Maggie Smith.
anyway, it's all good now, like/as they say. Thanks for checking in.

Nicole mistyped TextPal with a T (the free text editor) as PayPal with a
P (the online payment system). That's the source of the confusion.
You can download TextPal with a T from:
