Hi Stefan, Joe, and SW List....
Ha! Regarding the beauty of SignBank, versus the ease of using
SignWriter DOS...boy do I agree! Going back to SignWriter DOS, for me,
feels like going home, since it is a program we know so well...and
newer programs have to be learned, etc...

But I am working on one new way of looking at SignBank now...I am
developing a "SignBank for Everyday Use" (SignBank 2003) , and a
"SignBank for Research Use" (SignBank 2004)...

I hope to send out SignBank 2003 to SignWriting Members this September,
as a part of the SW CD Updates...I am busily trying to finish that now,
and will communicate soon about it...

Val ;-)
