Hi, In-reply-to: Your message of Sat, 15 Feb 1997 19:45:26 -1000." <Pine.BSI.3.95.970215193002.6626A-100000@flex.com> > Hi, > I've just started using Amaya.

Amaya has the basic set to develop a history list, but we are working on new developments and nobody here can spend time to work on this feature. > > 4.
