Well, my reports have to be printed on machines at my University, which don't have Emacs installed on, and I can't go installing Emacs whenever I need to print. (the machines are refreshed to a standard image every once an a while). I could telnet to a UNIX machine and print from there, but the truth is, I know/like WordPerfect. There is nothing missing from WordPerfect for report writing, and it isn't worth my time (now) to learn to use enriched-mode. -- (\/) Endlisnis (\/) s257m AT unb DOT ca Endlisnis AT HotMail DOT com ICQ: 32959047
