One quibble about MacMETH, which I guess couldn't be easily avoided.
It comes with a very nice manual of over 100 pages, complete with
good, useful index. The only trouble is that it was created with
Word, and the page setup was set for A4 European paper, which is
somewhat longer than American 8.5x11" stuff. Printing it out as is
results in the page numbers being chopped off the tops of the pages,
and the printing very close to the top edge of the page, so it looks
rather unesthetic.

Of course, one can change the page setup to US paper, but unfortunately
this ruins the page numbering, so the TOC and index don't match the
actual pages. Oh well...maybe some kind soul at ETHZ will fix this,
so that the North Americans can get a more usable and pretty manual :-)

Happy New Year!
