The name is Xclamation, and while it's a nice, bloat-free program, I
wouldn't use it for any heavy work. It lacks many 'professional'
features, such as colour separation, manual kerning etc. And
strangely enough, as hard as I looked I couldn't find an undo feature.
But for lighter DTP work, it's definitely worth checking out;
especially for the price (somewhere around $80 IIRC).
