It's one of the few DOS 3.3 programs that I sti ll use. The time spent accessing the disk drive with this program is maddening. I've overcome part of the problem by configuring my /RAM card as DOS 3.3 and loading the program files into it. It makes switching between GRAPHIC WRITER and the print routine, etc, bearable. However, you cannot load fonts, graphics or graffiles from the /ram card. They have to be on floppies. Does anyone have a patch to for this? By the way, since we're kicking Apples for not doing multitasking I think I'll yell about the fact that I can't run FONTRIX on the IBM 370. It seems to be about as appropriate.
