Well, I ain't subbed there, and I use 3.5, and I too whine
about ARQ not working with 3.5. In spite of what you are
insinuating, I think it is a real cool program that adds
a special something I want to the Workbench. You may not
find it useful, and I agree it may not be important, but it
is an important part of what I like about how I set up MY
personal workbench.
Personally, I think it is pretty dumb to have the windows always
show up in the top left corner when it would probably have been
very easy to set it up like ARQ does and center the friggin'
thing.
I have tried the other one that supposedly works with 3.5,
but I have not got it to work... M..something.
I also hate not being able to use ToolManager well with
3.5... I have tried the newest version and it makes each
of the icons take up one-quarter of the bloody screen! I
have tried for a couple of years to get around that, but all
to no avail... just something I seem to have running in the
background that does not agree with the new version of the
program.
Mind you, I should not be surprised. I have problems with
my 3000 running the internal floppy drive.... and I have 5
other floppy drives here, and have tried every one of them.
I have changed the CIA chips. I was hoping that the update
to 3.5 would solve the problem... all to no postive result.
At least ARQ makes me a little happy cuz it works...
...or should I say, "worked"... : )

Does this mean that I should try to see if some of these True
Type fonts actually work now that I have 3.5 installed?

Sounds like a PITA...
