quoth M.W.

I purchased the Linux CD version, they send me registration info for Textmaker fro Windows and Pocket PC's. I email them 6 times in 2 weeks, no response. Today I get the CD for Textmaker for Windows and Pocket PC's (useless to me). Any imput appreciated. Harry G I use Text Maker; it's pretty decent. I had some problems getting ahold of them and when I mentioned it to them, they seemed amazed that I couldn't get ahold of them. I think they might have some dead e-mail addresses.

(i have the download version and keep *numerous* backups, because after using it for six weeks or so i would be utterly lost without it, so i'm prepared for everything i can be short of a direct nuclear hit. for what i do, it's by far the best linux word processor i've seen and, with the possible exception of describe, the best, period.) -- dep http://www.linuxandmain.com -- outside the box, barely within the envelope, and no animated paperclip anywhere. ___ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc - http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

Me be sad. 8-( I agree with you, Dep. It is a GREAT program. I am using the demo right now, but I need to be able to save in .doc file format, which the demo won't do. I sent an email to the person that Tony suggested. They are 6 hours ahead of me in EST, which would make it 2:49 AM. Hopefully, I will find out soon. Unfortunately, I have to go to Marco Island Fl. tomorrow for a overnight job, so I will have to wait until Thursday. Thanks for you help though. because of your review at Linux and Main, I gave it a try. Huum. I guess that makes you kind of responsible, huh? If it doesn't get straightened out, you can send me a check or money order for $68.99. Ah, you just wrote a review. You can just pay half. 8-) Just kidding.
