I was a little perplexed by the question as I understood it. I upgraded from 
2.8.3, but thought that perhaps there might be subtle further improvements 
to the slurs in the nest upgrade, I don't remember why; they are nicely 
improved as they are. At least I think that was the impovement I was looking 
for, don't hold me to it. Sorry, it is irrevelent anyway, I just thought I 
was being a bit to kurt before and am trying to be more effusive.

Practically speaking, 2.8.4 can only be useful to me for recompiling 
existing files if I cannot use the command line. It is more difficult to 
debug or spot typos if I cannot see the error messages. Usually, I try 
things that I am not sure will work, but do not know why it will not work, 
basically using the Program Reference side of the documentation rather than 
the User Manual.
