   Hello All. New Winpoint user here, after many years away from Fidonet.   
      
   Installation was painless, especially compared to the days of struggling to   
   get X00/Binkley/QuickBBS, and all of the required axilliary programs running.   
      
   One nagging issue I am having, it that during message entry, every character I   
   type appears to be followed by a space, no matter what font or font size I try.   
      
   Also, after I first got it configured and running, I exited by hitting the "X"   
   in the upper right corner. I suspect that this didn't properly close all of   
   the files, because I got an error when I tried to run it again.  Reinstalling,   
   and telling it to overwrite the configuration files got it fixed.  Since then,   
   I have used FILE|EXIT to quit, and haven't had any trouble. Is this a known   
   issue?   
      
      
   Regards,   
   Al Thompson
