- One quibble about MacMETH, which I guess couldn't be easily avoided.
- It comes with a very nice manual of over 100 pages, complete with
- good, useful index. The only trouble is that it was created with
- Word, and the page setup was set for A4 European paper, which is
- somewhat longer than American 8.5x11" stuff. Printing it out as is
- results in the page numbers being chopped off the tops of the pages,
- and the printing very close to the top edge of the page, so it looks
- rather unesthetic.
-
- Of course, one can change the page setup to US paper, but unfortunately
- this ruins the page numbering, so the TOC and index don't match the
- actual pages. Oh well...maybe some kind soul at ETHZ will fix this,
- so that the North Americans can get a more usable and pretty manual :-)
-
- Happy New Year!
