Greetings... I am on a documentation team for a collaborative writing editor at Carnegie Mellon, and am interested in hearing some opinions. The editor allows multiple authors or editors to create columns next to original text. Comments or changes may be made in these columns, and then "linked" to the original text so that a printed version allows comments to remain next to the text which they reference. There are various editing capabilities: find and replace, search, move, the usual cut/paste/multiple paste features. As writers, what features do you imagine being important to such a program? The basic program is written, and we're now looking to suggest to the programmers some pertinent features they might include. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Please email me directly, as I don't get here often. Thanks in advance, Brian
