It sounds good.
If the program also remembers where it's filepaths then perhaps it would be
possible to start it from a shortcut that didn't set the path prior to running
in (normally causing the program to be unable to find it's support & ini files)

They seem to sorta work .. It looks "different" when you try to do lines with an
"off" degree that the chars cant display well but I think you got the general
picture.
If not I will correct you when I see the next version.

If you grouped the lighter types into a group and the darker into their group
then they could be called CeeJay (light) and CeeJay (dark)

or you could call them CeeJay (normal) and CeeJay (alternative) as I mostly use
the upper section of the sun myself .. perhaps with the exception of 4/1 , 3/1
and 2/1 where I prefer the versions in the lower half.

Yes .. this sound good.. do that.

Do you have a burning desire to repay your gratitude to me for all the helpful
commments, ideas and suggestions ?
Great ! I could really use the money.
