Version 1.2 is almost ready (LOTS of spare time lately :-) ).

It support text on the screen that has user selectable (through
new logo commands, not pull-down menus) fonts, color, size, and angle.

But will release it when I get back to my 3.0 help compiler floppies
monday or tuesday night so I can build a 3.0 compatable help file.

I'd also like to hear any feedback on problems with 1.1. A couple users
complained it was a lot slower. I think this is due to it hogging too much
memory. Which I think I fixed.

I'd also like to hear what configurations have worked or not worked
for folks.

Namely (I filled in my configuartions):

Machine (286,386,486): I've run it on 4 different 386s
Operating system (OS2, DOS 3.3, DOS 4.0, DOS 5.0): All DOS 5.0
Monitor (Mono, VGA, EGA, SVGA): Mono VGA laptop and SVGA
Printer (Laser, Ink-Jet, Dot-Matrix, Color/Mono): Mono Dotmatrix
Version of windows (3.0, 3.1): All 3.1
How much memory: All had min of 4 meg.
WIndows Mode (Real, Standard, Enhanced): All enhanced.

I'd really like to know if it can you ok on a a 286, 2meg, 3.0 windows
in standard mode. Which I consider a reasonable "cutoff". I don't know
if it will run on a 286 with 1meg in real mode. If version 1.1 didn't
version 1.2 might, it's a lot leaner. I aslo would like to know if flood
fill is working on any printers (perhaps color or laser).

And more if you like. This will help me determine which end the problem is
on if a user has problems Thanks.
