I'm familiar with the 'essay'. That's why I called Richard out on it. And I know about time to develop. I'm something of a developer myself. But I work alone as opposed to having a 'stable' like FMI. > In the meantime, check out those plug-ins and buy one already. You would have > been done sending out your email by now. : ) Yeah... Buy one and then, if FMI sees it as profitable, they generate it. Or maybe they'll be bribed to hold off, as I suspect they are for various other features offered by some third parties I can think of that want $1000 for a developer's license to use their plug-in.
