You're not overcharging, it's just that some of your customers are
spoiled.  I still remember the v2.01 "Christmas present" a couple of
years ago -- NO other software company has ever done anything like
that, and I really appreciate all the support and extra help (via the
net) since then.

$69 for new manuals and a source debugger is eminently reasonable.
Hell, I just paid $35 for Suitcase which (although it is certainly a
fine product), only allows me to avoid rebooting and using the dreaded
Font/DA Mover every now and then.

My check is in the mail, and thanks again Michael for the best C
development environment I've ever used.
