Are you a walking attitude problem, or what? If you don't like
this guys software, don't use it. Better yet, write a replacement yourself
and post it. I'm sure we can find some impartial judges and compare the two
systems.
In the mean time, your behaviour is arrogant and rude, and out of
place in this newsgroup. I don't think that I am alone in requesting you
to vent your problems elsewhere.
The rule of thumb in freeware is that you get what you pay for, so
if it doesn't work, don't be surprised. I've never spent a dime for anything
outside of the utilities and development set for this machine, and I'm doing
reasearch and development in several languages (Common Lisp, Prolog, and C)
using some outstanding tools (emacs, bison, less, etc). Almost every piece
of code I've ever put on this machine needed some work, but nearly every
piece has been worth the effort because someone bothered to write and post
the original program.
BTW: I don't recall seeing your name on any free software recently....
