    Hi Jan,

    No I am not looking to compete with MS Word or anything close.
    I am not interested in making a word processor as such.  What
    would be nice is to be able to hack in full justification or even
    better if Revolution made it a standard feature.  Do you know
    why they are not able to do it or don't want to.

    thanks,
