It works with the v7 too and it gave me an idea of a possible NB screen
in my usual style. I have used FG and BG commands to customize colors.

This is the key point and I am waiting for a v8 Demo to test it in depth.
Anyhow, as I have suggested, the problem with NB is what I am obtaining
in exchange for 250 bucks:
1. A complete outlining support (at present, I am using the macros that
Harry kindly wrote for us).
2. A program that uses ANSI codification and so it's suitable for
setting my text files for Ventura. But I already have that in ansified
XyWrite. And it's really good!
3. A program that communicates very well with Windows clipboard. But
once again I have that thanks to Robert's CLIP utilities.
4. Good communication with Windows printers. But, once again, Robert has
solved that issue with his universal printing method.
On the other hand, it's obviously interesting to support NotaBene, being
the XyWrite in the Windows world. But I have decided that I'll wait some
extra money before I spend my 250 bucks. But this is very relative and I
wouldn't like to disencourage anybody from purchasing the new version of
NotaBene, surely a major upgrade.
