There were unforseen issues with adding a 'load' button, which we didn't
discover in time to actually resolve them.
We do plan to add this
feature in a future update.

I've addressed this, and it should be fixed in the next update.

I'd guess you're using Windows 95, 98 or ME? There's an issue with AB on
those systems (the display of the little man should be disabled on
printouts, because it doesn't print properly as you noticed, and should be
replaced with a # character) that we've resolved and will be included in
the next update.
