I too have noticed the occasional appearance of duplicate characters in my typed texts recently. I attributed it to sloppy finger work, but when I think about it, it seems possible that this has occured much more frequently since I installed 6.0.7. I used 6.0.5 before and I don't think I had this occur with any noticable frequency. I use a Cutting Edge 105 ADB with a Mac IIci and a DataDesk Switchboard with a Mac Plus. I have not seen tripled, quadrupled, ++ ... characters, though. ************************************************************** Wolfgang N.

Maybe they were reset to maximum sensitivity when you installed the new system. -- Philip Machanick philip@pescadero.stanford.edu
