     Straight from the horse's mouth...

     The new, soon to be released, version will preserve the script bit.

     The new, improved (and in a run time library so that it can be shared)
file requester filters out more devices, can be patched easily to filter out
even more, and let's you scroll through the entire list, including assigned
names.

     The new file requester doesn't put up icons beside the devices, so the ???
icon is not an issue anymore.

     ALL keys can be remapped in the new version, so you can rearrange the
arrow keys to your hearts content.

     Ced can be made to rename the old version of the file to *.bak.

     There will be a ton of Arexx macros on the new release disk.

     I'm not aware of any way of getting snipit to work with Ced.  If the
snipit author has any comments on this, I'd be most interested.

     The new manual will have an index.


     Not bad, seven out of eight.  I'll try for a perfect 100% next time.  I
can't promise any definite release date, but it is going to be very soon.  The
adding of features has stopped, just a matter of bullet proofing and finishing
the manual (including index).
