[ANN] tm|numeric Plugin

[Jerry Daniels]

Fellow kids...

Mr. Rossi, despite his twisted sense of humor (now that he's FORTY  
it's gotten much worse, btw), has created absolutely rock-solid,  
indispensable, cool tools in the way of tmAlign and tmNumeric.

I use tmAlign every day that I work in Rev. I've been using it and  
tmNumeric for over a year now. The UI of these tools speak to a part  
of your brain that is still hunting buffalo (that's a good thing,  
btw). You just USE them. No thinking involved.

Get it. Do it. Become one with it.

You'll be glad you  did.

P.S. Ok, so I'm feeling a little frisky this afternoon.
