Dear Folks,

This is a general reply to David Gursky's message concerning the look
and feel of applications under emulators.

Currently Executor does not attempt to alter the look and feel of the
application running under Executor.  Doing so would be like colorization of
movies, it requires extra work and some people would like the results and
some people wouldn't.  Some people are against colorization on principle,
because the original director knew exactly what she/he was working with
and made her/his choices based on a deep understanding of the chosen
medium.  I personally don't see anything wrong with colorized movies per se;
some work better than others; to each his own.

Some companies are indeed trying to rework the interface of programs being
emulated, although none of those companies have public plans for releasing
software on the NeXT, and in fact, none of those companies currently have
a shipping product that's Macintosh binary-compatible (For those who follow
this sort of thing I'm talking about NuTek, Bawamba and Quorum).

However, I still maintain that for many people, running Excel under Executor
is an acceptable compromise.  But if you check out Executor and determine
that it's not for you, I take no offense, in fact I thank you for taking
your time to examine our product.
