David,
regarding your PS, I agree with you. I was pretty disappointed about the new
feature set. I love the persistent command recall buffer and the fact that
the .full_session_reset now actually does what is promises. The new help
what really not necessary for windows users and the input that I made toward
improving the new help system during the beta phase got pretty much ignored.
Maybe there is something big in the make at RSI and that's why this releae
was not so exciting. Or maybe after 15 years I am with my line plots in
direct graphics not the target customer any more.

Cheers,
Haje
