  Well, I think I just found the main source of our problems and
misunderstandings...

  There ya go.  You're using ProSEL 8...  I'm 99% sure that the rest
of us are talking about ProSEL 16.  ProSEL 8 is currently at version
4.0, and hasn't changed in quite a while.  ProSEL 16, on the other
hand, is at version 8.something.  Glen updates it all the time.  All
the features that were were mentioning were for ProSEL 16.  ProSEL 8
has a lot of the features in the form of external programs, but 16 has
'em built in.  Anyway, 16 is a lot more robust than 8.  If all you've
seen is 8, then you really haven't seen what ProSEL 16 can do.  I'm
not trying to insult you, or start a war, or anything...  I think we
can all agree that everybody misinterpreted everyone else's comments.

  I still prefer ProSEL 16 over Wings, but to each his own eh?
