OK, just loaded one of my projects and started poking around. This is by no
means exhaustive, just what I happened to notice. On the "welcome" screen
it says "Cleanup and simplification of Morphic text editing" but an old
"feature" (bug) is still there. If I type "The second word is bold" and
want to make the second word bold I double-click on "second" to select the
word, then right-click to bring up a pop-up menu where I expect to be able
to do that. The options available are

set font ... (k)
set style ... (k)
set alignment ... (u)

Setting a word bold should be on the style option, but when I select it I
get a font selection tool. The first choice also leads to a font setting
tool, although it is different. Neither offers bold, underline, italic,
etc. The alignment choice does offer alignment options. If I halo the text
and click Brown FF I get what I want, plus options to set alignment. Here
is a clue: both of the first two options on the pop-menu show the same
keyboard shortcut of k, which actually does what "set font" does. Seems as
though the definition for the "set style" choice needs some adjustment.
