Hi Scott,

Thank you for the quick reply, and I apologize if I now reply in an
incorrect format: I was digest subscribed.

Also thank you for the information. I'm torn on using 2.4.0, as most of the
work I that involves track changes also involves collaborators. I am
curious to try it for fun, though, and see packages listed in the
development ppa.

Since you do not mention five lines of code that I could possibly edit in
the source code of 2.3.6, I suppose the matter is not as easily as that.

Again, thank you for the quick reply.
As with every new release, I will look forward to 2.4.0.

Best,
Rasmus
