Thanks also to everyone else who has contacted me; you are too many to be mentioned here
separately. Please feel addressed with a global thank you!
Super-duper thanks go out to the following people for their software:
- Andrew Pavel Zabolotny for his very valuable HTML2IPF tool, with which
I created this online documentation. (I hate IPF.) He is also the developer of lxLite.
(No WWW address for this.)
- The development team of GIMP, the most impressive graphics package available,
and to those capable people who have made it work under XFree86 for OS/2. This is what
I've created most graphics with.
