Not to deny or concur with Marco's assesment of Manx's tech support as
of late, I just wanted to point out that Jim himself has been hard at work
on the 4.0 release of the compiler and SDB which he has promised to show at
the October JAUG meeting. I believe he will have something to preview at
AmiExpo as well. I'm sure that has something to do with the fact that he
hasn't been logged in to BIX etc. His goal I'm sure is to solve these
problems you are experiencing with the 4.0 release as well as provide
numerous new features (and bugs too I'm sure - 1/2 :-) ) - should be a real win.
