I know it would be like kissing your arch enemy, but if rebel 10 was an engine
for fritz i'd buy it straight away.  The ability to switch engines(of really
different programs) without having to jump from program to program and having to
reset up the position is a god send.  Besides it would be like you are making
money off of the fritz peoples invention!  That would be just revenge wouldn't
it.  I can't think of any possible type of legal opposition to porting the rebel
10 engine to the fritz5 GUI
