I still have both my registration letters from Cutting Edge, the first
for the 2.0*/2.1* version(s) and the second for the 2.20 and following
version(s).  They sit in a drawer in the computer desk... :)

Never tried that one.  Of course, the first one or two I tried didn't
work well, and then I was pointed to BW and never looked back...  
DOS only doesn't bother me... I'm still DOS only... ;)  Bug ridden...
well, that would be a problem...  :)  I tend to be an excellent beta
tester since I can somehow manage to trigger all sorts of previously
undiscovered bugs...

The TG door was the first one that George wrote.  IIRC, TGWave came
after Lars had written RGWave for Renegade... George wouldn't write a BW
door for RG... so RGWave was the answer... not True Blue, but at least a
good approximation.
