Hi,
Being the instigator of the current Fullwrite discussion, I think I should
post some kind of summary of the reponses I have been getting. This time (as
someone pointed out) due to inflammatory reasons, I received a large (read
around 10) responses. Nobody so far has been able to duplicate the system
bombs (id=10). I have tried removing all the inits and Public domain stuff
from my system folder, but the bug seems to persist. If I ever discover what
was wrong, I'll post it. Meanwhile, the bug was no big deal.
Most of the people who use it like it over MS Word 4 though everyone
complained the program was extremely slow (even on the 68030 machines). I
received a message from someone at Aston-Tate saying that the update was
going to come next year. So that might mean 27 days or 392. After reading the
article in MacWorld on Aston-Tate, I think the higher number is a better guess.
Oh, BTW, here is a bug I found in MathType 2.05. Select Matrix entry and enter
a 0 for number of rows or columns. Immediately you should get a Zero Divide
System bomb. I know its kind of silly bug, but hey nobody likes the cute
system bomb anymore.
Thanks to everyone who responded.
Rajiv.
