I really should have posted this article first, but I doubt I will
have inflicted *too* much frustration. Here's what to do with all
the stuff. Save the sed scripts in dead1.sed and dead2.sed. Save
the encrypted dead files in {75,76,77,...,84}.enc. Then the following
set of csh commands should fix everything up:
% foreach x (*.enc)
? sed -f dead1.sed < $x | sed -f dead2.sed > `basename $x .enc`.lst
? end
Sorry for the unkempt nature of things, sometime I will write some better
routines for manipulating the little buggers. Did anyone ever pick ded.c
off net.sources when I posted it last? I still find it fairly handy (it
is a one line visual Grateful Dead playlist editor). 1975-1982 came to
me through Jim Franklin who picked them up from Mr. Bill. I don't know
if it was Mr. Bill's personal work or what, but many thanks to both of those
people (neither of them is on the net). I was hoping to do some cleaning
up of the lists before I posted them, but it is not clear that I will
have the time before May and after May I may not be on the net (sigh).
Are there any plans to meet at Frost? If so I'm game, although I will
be sitting in the tapers pit.

Thanks to the author for making this information available. I'm going to
distribute it on paper to my local DeadHead friends. Unfortunately the buffer
size on this machine (PDP11/44 running 2.9BSD) for sed was too small - it
barfed on the sed scripts. But, it was a simple matter to break the scripts
up into 9 sed scripts, each with one alphabet (26 commands) and then run a
mother pipe to do the decoding. If you have problems, consider this solution.
