[comp.sys.next] Stuart2.01.Z

	I just uploaded this file from ftp.gac.edu and was wondering if it
	is actually an upgrade to Stuart2.0.  It came without docs or
	registration files.  I tried it and it looks very much like 2.0!!
	The info panel indicates version 2.0 and no information is given
	on 2.01.  Is this a bogus file?  Should I dump it out the door and
	register for 2.0?

Sigh.  _Please_ contact me directly with these questions!  If you cannot
find my address in whatever the question's about (in the Extra Info
in Stuart, Info panel - then the button), just look around a little
(it's not like I'm not right up there with glenn on posting ability :-).

Stuart2.01 is a version of Stuart which fixes certain problems which
occur using vi while remotely logged into Sun machines.  Hmm.  No, I
don't think anything else is fixed.  I decided to make it availiable
to people who reported problems with the bug, rather than repeat what I
did this summer (3 updates in 2 weeks).  Since the bug is not a really
major one, I didn't feel that it warranted major net hubub.

Now, since the cat is already out of the bag . . . There's an executable
on ftp.gac.edu, anonymous login, pub/NeXT-Apps/Stuart2.01.Z.  As
mentioned, it fixes a couple problems.  This will be my standard
method of making minor bug fixes availiable.

I'll probably release a minor release (say, 2.1) later this month, or
early January.  No really new and amazing functionality, just fix
a couple minor bugs.

I'm one of the people for whom Scott made 2.01 available.  Thanks, Scott,
for your quick response to my problem report.
