I've been using this since the first released beta -- or attempting to, anyhow --and now a slightly altered .9 release has been dubbed ready for market. As a user, I beg to differ -- especially when considering the price tag.

It's very buggy (as noted by the reviewer before me), still too many simple options missing. Example: my ability to choose what element I want to follow the previous script element (i.e. in my talk happy world I prefer to set it up so dialogue is followed by another character yapping back, vs. the default action setting {or hitting the tab button after the return}). If the option to do so is there, I still haven't found it, and it's certainly not documented that I can.

Still, plenty of potential here, I do like the interface (mostly). Unfortunately I think I'll be sticking it out with FD and a pencil before I dole out another $100+ on something so terrifically incomplete.
