FM 9 will politely coexist with FM 8. FM has always been very good about
allowing multiple versions on one PC, each in its own installation
directory. The only caveat is that the Windows file associations will be
updated so that .fm, .book, and .mif point to FM 9. But it's a simple
matter to change them back to FM 8 in Windows Explorer.
