Yep. I use it all the time -- now all I need is the EPSON printer driver, since
of course I don't have an imagewriter. I used to have problems changing fonts,
but I discovered that this was because of subtly-damaged finder and system files
(due to having copied them from one disk to another by dragging their icons, a
practice which David Small discourages at this point, since as he documents
clearly it does sometimes cause inconsistent failures in the copied versions --
a deficiency, I suspect, of finder itself, since the ST is a more "strict"
environment, in certain senses, for Mac software that has some sloppy mistakes
in it that pass in the Mac). It seems to work fine, now.
