I'm trying to set up the OPUS spreadsheet that was just distributed.  The
installation help file mentions assigner.prg, which does not seem to be
included in the distribution.  I thought this would present no problem, 
since the only fonts in my assign.sys file are the ones from Atari's
GDOS distribution set: names like ATSS18EP.FNT, the same 9 fonts in 3
families for high/low resolution, printer and metafile.  This would seem to
meet the requirements of the installation document.  FONTWID.PRG ran just
fine, and correctly (I think) reported 3 fonts.  But on startup, OPUS said
the screen and printer fonts didn't match, and disabled the charting menu
items.  I don't use GEnie (although I'm getting motivated...) or Compuserve,
so I can't contact Doug Harrison those ways.  Anyone instantly know what
I'm doing wrong?  Would posting ASSIGNER.PRG be appropriate?
