The consensus of replies to my inquiry (idis.119) of whether the refer program is in System III was no. In a previous article (sri-unix.1640), Charley Kline indicated that there are restrictions on writes to pipes. I have heard that the terminal driver is horrible. Mark Kampe's talk scheduled for the Boston meeting is titled "Everything you wanted to know about system III* but Bell was afraid to tell you". What else is wrong with system III? Maybe Mark can give us a preview. George Rosenberg
