Lines: 25 From: S7YLF4%IRISHMVS.BITNET@WISCVM.WISC.EDU Lately I have been getting VERY upset with my Amiga. {muttering epithets} In particular, several problems: 1) When I first used Textcraft and my Epson JX-80, printing out files at 10-pitch, everything was offset by five characters, so I switched to 12-pitch, and everything actually looked better, centered on the page. Now I've recopied stuff over from my original Textcraft disk (because my #|%@#(*^%$@^) backup crashed), and it refuses to do it that way. I can't print in 10-pitch, because for some reason it goes down an extra line at the end of a long line. Note that when I was printing at 12-pitch, according to Textcraft the margins were 0 and 80, but the printer was printing out things five spaces over. Preferences doesn't seem to change this. 2) Another gripe about Preferences: when I try to change the margins to 0 and 80, save and then go back, they change to and 8. 3) A gripe about Preferences and the date command: I CANNOT get either date OR preferences to save the date!!! Has anyone else had any of these problems? I am getting increasingly annoyed with this. I've wasted a lot of time trying to figure out what the 11~32~5|#_$)@*(%&$#_%^)@(#$*&% is wrong, and cannot. nj, the Increasingly Miffed
