For those who are interested, the FRed Font editor was acquired on the eve
of the Spring Seybold DTP show in San Francisco last month by LetraSet,
who expect to bring it out commercially later this year.  In my opinion,
it was a terrific acquisition, based on looking at the program at the
SF MacWorld Expo (hidden away in Brooks Hall); I can't understand 
why Adobe or Aldus didn't snatch it up (for different motivations).
Though I'm personally not a fan of ReadySetGo, the rest of LetraSet's
graphics stable is quite strong.
