yeah, i could tell it was an old one. (he/be confusion was the sign.)

i think most people say abby v7 is where recognition hit a plateau.
(versions later than that have added features, yet no better o.c.r.,
while all of the versions earlier than v7 are decidedly inferior.)

if you can find a used copy of v7, it would help you immensely...
