ID's are listed in decimal.

Notice the ID conflicts at 777 and at 1433.  This is terrible.
I'd hate to release a good library only to find it conflicting with
somebody else's work.  We can prevent this by keeping this list
up to date.  Whenever you make a new library, please pick a
non-conflicting ID number, and notify everybody.  That way we can
all add it to our growing library list.

There are proper channels at HP to allocate "official" ID numbers,
but as my HP-71 lexfile collection proves, the really good programmers
all seem to enjoy doing things their own way.  This "unauthorized"
list carries no force, just convenience.  I hope it helps.
