Sent. *tremble*
I stuck a couple of stamps on the envelope and whacked it in the post box this morning. I ended up substantially rewriting the thing. At half past one this morning I decided enough was enough and printed the thing. Hope he likes it.
As a side note, does anyone know of a word processor for *nix that will allow you to specify a different header/footer for each page, and still have page number variables and suchlike? I'm using Kword at the moment, because OOo has gone a bit bonkers. I think it's something to do with the general malaise that has affected my machine of late. Anyway, it's shite for laying out articles and other short manuscripts. I can't satisfactorily put "MF..." on the bottom of the right pages, nor can I give them suitable headers with page numbers (which should start from the second page). It's a bit frustrating. Currently my cover page is in a file on its own, as is my last page. It was the only way I could think of to get the footer to say "END" instead of "MF...". I'm probably agonising over trivialities, but I like things to be right, and I've been told all this stuff is the right way to do it.
