Hello Stephan Lehmke,


SL> Three comments:

SL> 1) I find it a serious design flaw for any package to globally define a
SL>    two-letter control sequence which is not absolutely vital for
SL>    the package's functioning.

I totally agree

SL> 2) As far as I can see, pdfslide is obsolete now and superseded
SL>    by pdfscreen. Does the same error occur also with pdfscreen?

Yes, I had the problem with soul using pdfscreen.


SL> 3) As neither pdfslide nor soul is vital for the functioning
SL>    of TeXPower, I don't think we should make texpower.sty into
SL>    a `link' between these otherwise unrelated packages.

In fact I am not using soul anymore with texpower (however I
do not know if soul still has some utility that texpower
cannot provide...yet)


By the way, could the mailing list be configured in such a
way that when clicking on "replay", the replay to the
original message is addressed to the list and not to
Stephan?. It seems that the field "From:" and "Replay-to"
are configured to be the same.

Best regards,

Agustin
