   In years past I was getting tic's from allfix with no size in them. I don't   
   know if that is still the case.

   In a case like this it would be handy. :)   
      
   I have been meaning to netmail Kim so when I do I'll ask him to consider   
   adding a size line to tic files. I don't know if he'll do that but I'll put it   
   on the table anyway.
