D. W. Emmett, the creator of the Softy editor, died a few years
ago and, hence, no longer accepts bug reports. Otherwise, he may
well have made various corrections.
The Softy editor was last updated in 1998 (AFAICT) and generates
mainly the same kind of errors as all of the other font creation
tools then available.
