Karl, what version of xcmalt do you have there? If it isn't
2.0, from August of 1989, please let me know and I will send
it to you.

This is the version which I posted to Compuserve's Tangent Forum,
LIBrary 5.

A few weeks ago, an HP-UX user wrote me that he made one change
in the makefile (changed -ltermcap to -lcurses), and was then
amazed that the age of portable code had really arrived.
