Mmm... I have seen it, and I think AA editor is not that bad. You can
assign any file types to any compression format (although there aren't
that many!). SPRE is of course better, btw.

I think that review is bias too. As an AA user, I do think HP is a much
superior product, and it will definitely be my next program to get! AA is
getting to iiritating that I basically do not use it to compress anything
that I might use within my lifetime.

: Anyway Andy, just thought I'll let you know that your work _is very much_
: appreciated.  Hoping to see further upgrades to HP! :)

Yes, is there new upgrade? As a potential customer, I sure hope HP is a 
product with a future! I must say that HP is a good product (thanks to DOTW
that let me test it in his house) and Andy has done an excellent job on it!
