I haven't purchased an upgrade to White Knight yet because I had no
idea what it was really like.  I borrowed a copy from a friend
tonight for evaluation purposes and was quite disappointed.  Two
major bugs/misfeatures (at least) still exist and are as annoying as
ever.

First, when you copy text from the screen by selecting it and
hitting cmd-C, the screen redraws.  This is annoying and wastes time
and should have been redone in this version.  It still happens.  How
come this is unnecessary in "lesser" programs such as ZTerm?

Second, if you are in Emacs or nn, occasionally WK will garble the
status line if you do something that obscures it, like bring up a
dialog (VT Modes..., for instance).  This doesn't seem to happen
every time, but it definitely _has_ happened in both RR and WK.

Other things, like requiring the manual to figure out how to get an
escape key, etc. make this program not nearly enough of an
improvement over RR to make me upgrade.  I guess I'll continue to
use RR and switch to ZTerm when it's time to download...
