I accidentally posted Moire 1.41 to the nets, which had a few bugs. I tried
to cancel it, but it was posted onto comp.binaries.mac before i could stop it.

Moire 2.12 fixes all these bugs (hopefully). I posted it to the moderator
a month ago, so it should be released any day now. (if i remember, i was
saving some data structure like a grafport (56bytes ?) and the bug was fixed
in 1.43).

ps : hope that the bug didnt cause any major problems.
