X.SH "BUGS"

X\fIXcomm\fP does not support or respect uucp/tip LCK lock files.
XCheck that the modem is free before trying to use \fIxcomm\fP.
Incorrect. I thought I posted on this, but maybe it didn't get
everywhere the first time...
I added HDB-style LCK files to xcomm a couple of weeks ago, but
managed to miss updating the docs before posting the source. Xcomm
respects and creates HDB-style LCK files, and can be safely installed
setuid-uucp if you wish.
BTW, I have had one report that the shars refused to unpack properly.
I can't reproduce it from the originally-posted articles on my host;
if anyone else is having such troubles, I'd appreciate a note.
Something may have become corrupted along the way.
