I tried typing to Pipe:a and reading from pipe:a and they are indeed different
filenames!  This may be a bug in 1.3.  I have 1.3 software and roms.  Maybe
it was fixed in 1.3.2?

I think it is. This bug was mentioned ages ago in the Bugs column of the
now-non-existant Transactor Amiga magazine.

You don't live in Denver too, by chance? ;)

  Unless you plan on doing something hazardous.
