There are a few others as well.  Unfortunately, I became squamped at
work the day or so after the posting.  They are currently in the queue
after Real Work(tm).

I will probably get these bugs fixed and posted this weekend.

Also - my CORRECT net.address [ damned Convex mailers ... ] is NOT at
convex.UUCP.  The CORRECT address is jfh at rpp386.Dallas.TX.US, or if
that don't work [ high probablity - I'm working on it tho' ;-) ] is
jfh at rpp386.UUCP, followed by {killer,convex,dalsqnt,texsun}!rpp386!jfh

Probably what you just wrote ...
