A Big Thanks To Martin ('Official Nisus Person')

Hi there,
When I first adopted NWP 2, split pane/comparison editing was one missing feature I craved, and upon a forum search I found that other people wanted it too. I logged my own vote for the feature; but since Martin is reserved in his responses, I didn't sense much of a hope for it, anytime soon.
I've been hobbling along in NWP ver. 2 on an ancient MBP with old OS X, so I didn't notice when NWP 3 came out. I've just discovered that split pane is fully implemented! It's waiting for me, as soon as I invest in a newer system that takes a new OS X.
Through these forums, I'm sure Martin sees his users as a picky, complaining, and demanding bunch. I'll revert to being one of them, as soon as I've thanked Martin for what must have been one helluva lot of work to bring us NWP 3.
And lest we forget, NWP doesn't exactly have the highest profile, among Mac word processors. The masses aren't lining up to ditch Word or Pages and hand him money. He's not busy driving around in his Lamborghini while he should be developing! I'm betting that he's making a smaller hourly wage out of this program than most of us are. But it's his baby, and he's just delivered a beautiful new version – one that reflects his vision of an improved word processor for us.
Thank you Martin! Sorry for all our clamouring demands and indignant complaints – including my future ones. :^D!
