"Thanks for your fast response (and, on a Sunday, too)!
I'm very disappointed with Adobe's new ATM 4.0 Deluxe; some of its features break new ground, but strictly as a fonts management tool, it seems quirky and overly-complicated. I'm hopeful that your newest version of Fonts Manager does the job without ATM's overhead. The $10 fee makes it easy to do the right thing, too. I seem to remember encountering problems with an earlier version of FM, 'bout a year ago (slowness/AppleScript) but I'm ready for a fresh look; I'd dearly love to part with my $10 bucks this time!"

"Thanks for the prompt reply. The copy I sent you did have an accent over the 'e', so the message must have met a 'delete unwanted/foreign characters' setting somewhere during transit. The code, as you observed, was the problem. I had recorded it minus the '1' digit after the '9'. I appreciated the Binhexed attachment, even though I had just downloaded this most recent version to update, and the fact that you took the time to attach it impresses me with your professionalism, attention to detail, and efficiency.
Again I thank you."

"I downloaded Fonts Manager 3.6.2 from the Internet today and have just spent the last few hours trying it out. Maybe I haven't given it a full enough try, but as of now I can't say warmly enough how pleased I am with its performance and the whole concept behind it.
I use an original Mac Classic (68K) with System 7.1 and only 4 megs of RAM, so I'm particularly wary of how much RAM my applications and utilities take up. I happen to believe that truly efficient computing should be done with less RAM, not more, and any font utility that contributes to that end, I'm interested in. I've tried both Suitcase and Master Juggler, and what I get from them usually is system crashes. But Fonts Manager seems to do all the basic set-making I need quickly and correctly and simply. And no, I don't mind restarting the computer to activate different font configurations. Well done, sir.
I would make only one tentative suggestion: for those users who have no experience with font manipulation a brief manual (maybe two or three pages of TeachText) -- in addition to or in place of the Help file -- might be in order.
The licensing agreement for Fonts Manager in the version I have specifies a fee of (only!) $10.00, but I'm enclosing a little extra with my registration, because I think the sharing of such intelligence of design should be rewarded.
Thanks for making my Christmas a little merrier. I hope yours is, too."
