Ever since I put iwscript onto the ftp archives, I've gotten no mail whatsoever about it. Is it because nobody's using it? This is really puzzling. Just before I uploaded it, I got many many requests for it. Then after I upload it, nothing. No cheques in the mail, no questions, just total silence. I am not expecting money to come rolling in (most shareware authors are resigned to the human condition, as I am), but I'd appreciate hearing from people who do use it. Is it working out there in the field? Or perhaps nobody really wants it after all, and it has been all a big waste of time...? -Robert Lin

Well I guess for a lot of people this program would just be interesting if they could adapt it to their own dot matrix printer. I would be interested in using some old printer of mine just to get some previews. But as there is no source available, there is noway getting what I want, short of writing some similar program again. I certainly will not go out and get an ImageWriter, if I have to spend some money, then I rather prefer to get the NeXT laserprinter right away.
