Uh won't this break tabbing and etc on the console if its ever anything but? Admittedly, it would be rather cool to have have proportional spaced consoles that work properly (i.e. backspace, clipping, tabbing, etc). Wouldn't this slow the system down terribly though? I remember how sluggish word is on the Mac. Don't forget, we don't all have 3000's. That reminds me, I'm typing this on my 1000, I've just got 2.0 running on it fairly stably, and WB is S*L*O*W. I couldn't live with a console that was that speed. > > >-- >Randell Jesup, Jack-of-quite-a-few-trades, Commodore Engineering. >{uunet|rutgers}!cbmvax!jesup, jesup@cbmvax.cbm.commodore.com BIX: rjesup >Disclaimer: Nothing I say is anything other than my personal opinion. >"No matter where you go, there you are." - Buckaroo Banzai -- |_o_o|\\ |. o.| || The Jay Denebeim | . | || Software | o | || Distillery | |// Address: UUCP: mcnc.org!deepthot.uucp!jay ====== Internet: jay@deepthot.cary.nc.us BBS:(919)-460-7430 VOICE:(919)-460-6934
