n/a

Actually, I have never seen it yet. I do everything by hand, and I would never even consider to possibility of having my hobby done by the computer. But I have heard (or rather: read) a lot about LangMaker, and I will surely download it one of these days. Just out of curiosity, however. I don't think I will ever use it.

No idea, really. I don't really have an idea how the existing program(s) work. What I would certainly appreciate, I think, is the possibility to select words out of a list of 100 generated words, and to have them stored and eventually exported to MS Word or Access. Sorry I can't be more helpful than this... Jan ===== "Originality is the art of concealing your source." - Franklin P. Jones __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
