	I for one would not pay workman's prices either, but then
I have other access routes to the software in question.
	Your note brings up an interesting point.  You mention
the words 'public domain' in connection with ZCPR2.  I have yet
to find these words in the ZCPR2 documentation.  What I find is:

	ZCPR2 Version 2.0
	Copyright (c) 1982, 1983 by Richard Conn
	All rights reserved

	According to my meager understanding of the copyright
laws, Rick has retained all rights (at least to the
documentation) and the copy I made from my local RCPM is in
violation of the law.
	If this is not the case, I wish someone in the know would
straighten me (and probably others) out.  (Rick, are you there?).
