	But, I never got the last part of that posting!  I remember some
other complaints, then I was in the throes of switching over from getting
forwarded copies of the unix-pc.* groups to running Cnews, and something may
have fallen in the bit-bucket at that time.  If others have not gotten
everything as well, can this be re-posted as a comp.sources.3b1 entry?

	Thanks
