I just want to point out that you're not replying to me there, but to the person I replied to.

No. That was added in version 1.05 on May 7, 1997. The most recent version is 1.11, which fixes the "Out of subscript range" error some people experienced: http://www.langmaker.com/langmake/langm111.exe This link is just to the EXE itself; you still need to download 1.10 and then this update.
