> One thing still puzzles me, though: switching to a different font, or changing the horizontal window size, obviously changes where all the Tab-indentations are in the text, and these must then be manually fixed to appear properly.
Aack! I'm glad you brought that up. Absolutely do not make use of the word wrap "feature" in Notepad. All line breaks have to be hard line breaks, i.e., actually hit return so that resizing the window and/or changing the font does not reformat the text. If there isn't a hard return character, the AGL engine will read it all, and lines can't be longer than something like 120 characters or so -- I'll have to check on that, but if you hit a hard return whenever you get near the left edge of the screen, you should be fine.

You're not serious. You can't send file attachments? Uh. Ok, to send the files to me, first upgrade your email service.... :-) I don't know. How do you even have web access without a POP3 account or something?
How easy or hard would it be to include the file as the message content? Cut and paste with the mouse doesn't work, because it'll turn the tabs into spaces. But if you can do that, I'll be able to manage fine as long as you tell me what the filename is in the subject line or something.
