- The problem is that we don't have access to anything other than the
- MenuName in the files we use. However, I've modified our name
- mangling routine to use "-" instead of " ". Does that help?
-
- After E2 is out and we've ported to Win32 and/or OS/2 we'll revamp our
- printing capabilities to make use of the native facilities we'll then
- have access to.
