	I am having problems using Snap on my Amiga 1000.  When I run
it initially, Snap cannot find my text -- anything I clip and paste comes
out as "???????".  Watching it work, I can see that Snap is trying to
find text on the wrong scan lines -- for instance, the clipping rectangle
goes right through the middle of words, instead of surrounding them.

	After a while, Snap FINALLY gets it right... and then never has
the problem again (until I kill and restart it).  Any explanations?

	I am not using the standard Kickstart font -- it has been
replaced by KFont3.  That's probably related of the problem... but Snap
is supposed to work on 8x8 fonts.   And it DOES start working eventually.

                                                        Dan
