Carl:
Having the option of different environments would be a very nice feature, I
like that aspect of the Adobe family software especially. I think that
feature, along with not having a ton of windows open on launch every time,
would really make Denemo an even more viable option, as far as choosing an
engraving application for newcomers. Maybe? Just an idea.
