Since you use TrueType for DOS, maybe you can confirm something I
remember reading: that TrueType is dependent on printer resolution, so
that if a document created for a 300 dpi printer, is printed on a 600
dpie printer, the line wrapping will change?

I'm getting old and crotchety, I suppose, but not so far that I don't
recognize a genuine improvement when it's pushed in my face. You're
quite right that a feature like QuickCorrect "gives everyone a chance to
be a power user."
But, as you say, it does so without remapping the keyboard. These
kids have it too easy, dern it! Remember how much fun it was to search
in the depths of a printer driver for the exact string of a character,
write it down, go somewhere else in the font and type in that exact
string, and do it over and over again? They're soft, I tell you, soft
and coddled!
