- Yes, I used it for that same purpose, too. It doesn't even seem to take
- advantage of what the WPS sets up as "association", either. Otherwise,
- I'd set everything up that way. Damn shame, if you ask me.

- Well, I found at least one in the viewer. It doesn't seem to use the full
- window it opens. It leave a few lines on the bottom as a "margin", but
- I haven't had it crash yet...we'll see. I can usually bring any program
- down given a little time (except my own, of course <G>, but then I just
- have others do that for me :) ).
