Re: Nota Bene (changing draft font)

["Anne Putnam" aputnam@xxxxxxxx]

In response to the question from ArtHXy@xxxxxxxx about the irreversibility
of changing the draft font:

Sorry to say that "irreversible" means for the life of the product (or
until someone figures out a solution). Steve Siebert, NB founder and
program designer, did it quite some time ago on his computer and hasn't
been able to reverse it. He has adapted to seeing an incorrect display of
opening and closing command brackets on the command line.
