Indeed. As I said, I never use it (if I really need to know
what something will look like, I have been opening it in
XyWin, but no need to, since Manuel called to my attention
the use of PostGhost for this). Anyway, I just tried an
experiment: stuck a UFPalatino at the top of my month's list
posts file, and looked at it, first in Postghost, then in
WZ. No contest: PostGhost produced much better-looking
output, hands down. Furthermore, an earlier attempt to use
WZ, in which my absent-mindedness caused me to switch modes
(full-screen to windowed and back, WZ to expanded to draft
and back) too often CRASHED the system. Granted, this is
pathetic 98SE, but still...
