Nope, I am not.

You'd need to reread my post, but if English is difficult for you, just forget it, because it's a monumentally long post. (Sorry.) By the way, it's not "1 option" – quite a few Marvin 2 features are missing in Marvin 3, and some features in Marvin 3 work (in my experience) in a less convenient, less clever way compared to Marvin 2. (I said so in the post you quoted.)

I
am using that s:AS option, but it does
not show any effect in the comprehensive authors listing, unlike in Marvin 2. To me, that's as clear-cut an example of flawed software design as you can possibly ask for, and I'm really surprised that Kris submitted Marvin 3 to Apple for a public release with this flaw (and other deficiencies) included. Well, it's up to Kris's judgment, of course, and it remains to be hoped that the flaws will be fixed as soon as can be.
