I thank Claus for his prompt response to my complaint (Claus is  
right, of course; I was using FS with BBEdit, not with Alpha).

I reiterate my viewpoint as a suggestion, especially in view of  
Claus's willingness to accomodate people like myself with multiple  
editor needs: Wouldn't it be better to have a single license for FS,  
which one can use to obtain any (or all) of the four (or three)  
variants?
