There's a well built Mac app that's about 2/3 of Freehand but feels familiar to use, has a great bezier tool, and some other cool features FH didn't have. It's called Creator Express and it's in the Mac app store. Grizzled veterans like me in the graphics field might remember MultiAd Creator, it's a descendent of that.
There are some frustrating things, like text converted to paths can't be separated further and manipulated, you can't simplify freehand-tool drawn lines except for one point at a time, no control over end shapes and junctions of lines (except for a few limited arrowheads), no calligraphic type capabilities, limited export, BUT the manual kerning tool is cool, I like the bezier tool even better than FH's, and there's some other great features too. The text wrap works great!
The best thing is, Creator Express is only $40 and there's a free, full-featured 30 day trial. And they have ACTUAL PEOPLE you can talk to on the phone for support and they answer emails too!!!! I'm hoping if some of us send them a friendly "hi" they might add our wish lists of features to this pretty cool program.
