When I use QUED/M 2.04 with SuperLaserSpool on a multi-page document,
the last line at the bottom of each page gets printed again as the
first line on the following page.  Neither Paragon or SuperMac seems
to understand why.

YES!!  This has been happening to me all the time lately.  Strings of
10 or 20 [03] ASCII characters inserted right in the middle of words.
I haven't changed anything major in my system; it doesn't happen in
any other applications; there's no key I can accidentally rest on to
cause this; and of course it doesn't show up in the "Show Invisibles"
menu selection -- you have to "Show ASCII" or "Zap Gremlins" or print
the document to find and get rid of them.  Plays hell with TeX files,
mail messages, and so on.

A very nice program, but . . .  (Is QUED/M ever going to have an
upgrade?  Or is it only Nisus from now on?)
