WOW - it is working now, really really well. And he has a system 
for making curves that actually sorta makes sense to me. The 
upshot of this is that I made curves for my printer this afternoon 
all by myself (well, um, with the help of some email and 
spreadsheets from Roy) which are WORKING! Still need a little 
tweaking, and my curves are not as good as, say, Tyler Boley's or 
Paul Roark's, but considering that just yesterday I was 
describing myself as an "end-user doofus" I am delighted with 
the results I am getting now.

Charles, you've certainly been a help getting the quirks of
the installation package worked out.  Thanks.

Just as soon as I can I'll get a new install package with all
these fixes and a couple of other conveniences.  I'm also
putting together a Linux set of files that should be easy to
install on various Linuxes.
