columns??

[Sue Blackwell]

Oh dear, can't you put it back into the CLAN suite?  Please?
It's a nice simple program to get students going with CLAN,
and it's good for producing handouts for teaching purposes.

Is the new manual only out in electronic form or is there
a hard copy version?  I had been meaning to send you a list of
the errors I found in the third edition - am I too late?  (But
perhaps you had already found and fixed them all anyway ...)

;-)
