Yes . I just looked for mine and it's in the bottom storage container . Oh well 
. I'll dig it out again some day . The V3.5 manual
was much nicer and a real thing of beauty . Really learned a lot from it , long 
before I discovered "The List" . Really a first class
bit of work .

Nice painterly feel to it , like an illustration almost .


 I checked out the michael english site . Interesting artist . I actually never 
heard of him B4 but his style did look
very familiar , of course . Liked his 70's stuff best . Link to his paintings 
were a 404 error .


 I tried to google your site but had no luck . Went to realsoft.com but you are 
not listed in the 'Links' section there
or on the RS.info site either .


There was a new link to Meskanen.com though . Some very interesting facts there 
about the 2 Czechoslovakian
brothers . Many dead links on that site though , but maybe they will be added 
later .


 Also , I tried going through all my RS links and many , many of them are dead 
links now . I see the Wiki is still
going though , which is always good . Not sure if there has been many new 
additions . Might check it out later .


 I see realsoft.info is now realsoft.org . Very confusing . Also the links on 
Zaugs site have some dead ones now .


Not a good sign .


Cheers
