Hello!
I'm guessing this gets sent here.
Just a complaint. I have been typing along on framemaker for a while now.
All of a sudden it can't find some resoure that it needs, so it dies.
It turns out that my tickets have expired. i distinctly recall in the past
that a warning used to pop up if one's tickets were about to expire.
Nothing happened this time. Why?
Also, should framemaker just die like that. I can understand freezing until it
has access to the appropriate resources, but it just died. (Took half-an hour's work with it too - but that's my fault for not saving).
Anyway, if programs are going to do this sort of thing, I would think it
would be really important that we know when our tickets are going to expire.
That warning would be mighty useful.
