How does ADM fare? My prediction was that trying it would crash the program. <g> The program didn’t crash, but the result was the least useful and the most illogical. This would be caused by the same malady that might result in a crash: failing to think adequately about the implications of a design decision. What ADM does is puts textual outliners at both places, as non-clone copies. Well, I did say thay ADM was trying to be everything to everyone; maybe it stands to reason that it would embrace incompatible design choices at the same time.
