Never too old to learn, I didn't know that!

Me, neither! I think the manual mentions entering one of the ALPHA sub-menus if you want to enter an alpha label that starts with a digit, but I'd never heard of (or thought of) this trick before.

Seems pretty simple to fix. I'll do it in the next release.

Thanks to ijabbott for pointing this out to me -- I don't follow this subforum, I usually only read General, Not Quite, and Not Remotely.
