No, I didn't forget. But to build in the new TextEdit means deciding to

it'll happen down the road, but is it worth cutting off a large part of teh
market for a feature that's of marginal interest?

Why are you bitching about it here? It amy not even be Acius' fault, you

nothing about it except getting pissed at them?
