The only problem was that Mover would put a blank line after the file title
line.

Yes, They were with 2.1.0, but let me just check... hmm doesn't seem to be doing it, maybe it was on the other one I was using, which was two before this beta. Maybe I was just confused. I was going between the two last night. I'd have both open and (...) (27 years ago, 1-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
