Thank you sindi for all the corrections, please be peasant I will do
some thing about the mistakes but it takes time. In fact I have
spelling problems in Danish as well even though I love to talk an
writ.

Yes sindi I have discovered that and I don´t find any solution to that
I keep thinking of groff. Groff is so small and capable, but it wont
do what you want, it has no rtf feature. The way to go to MS-Word in
groff is through html.

well 'and' is 'og' in Danish, but the word 'and' is also a word in
Danish. It means duck.

I have not hired about tinyX (kdrive) before. BL3 comes with xvesa and
the wouldn't work with my machine (the Compaq AVGA chip) then I tried
with XSVGA and that wouldn't work ether, Then I had to use the VGA16
server and that worked, but in compare to that the SVGAlib is much
better.
