Hello All. New Winpoint user here, after many years away from Fidonet.

Installation was painless, especially compared to the days of struggling to get X00/Binkley/QuickBBS, and all of the required axilliary programs running.

One nagging issue I am having, it that during message entry, every character I type appears to be followed by a space, no matter what font or font size I try.

Also, after I first got it configured and running, I exited by hitting the "X" in the upper right corner. I suspect that this didn't properly close all of the files, because I got an error when I tried to run it again.  Reinstalling, and telling it to overwrite the configuration files got it fixed.  Since then, I have used FILE|EXIT to quit, and haven't had any trouble. Is this a known issue?


Regards,
Al Thompson
