Ack! I tested but in my eagerness to move on to the next project I neglected 
to document the bug that I found!

I can offer a quick description for reference:

After compiling QT/free 3.3.3, running the "demo" in examples, and attempting 
to select text, I encountered severely broken results. It appears that under 
qt/free you are unable to select text (rtf only?), which makes for very 
difficult editing if that would be something you wanted to do with an app you 
compiled with qt/free.

Sorry that is such an informal report, but I don't have much time at the 
moment and I wanted to let you know that there has been some testing and at 
least one bug found recently.

Cheers,

Steven
