Nice, and now for some fire from abroad: (also mailed directly)

Have you (AppSoft) fixed the damm problems with the "forreign" characters? I  
WANT TO TYPE UMLAUTS! It won't work in AppsoftDraw - it worked in the last  
release of Draw ...

And: how doy you think we (from outside the USA) are to reach you at the 1-800  
number???????
