Contained in this post, and in several following, are some useful text
files I pulled off the Toshiba BBS. I figured that since I had to pay
for a long distance phone call to get all this stuff, that the rest of
Usenet could benefit from it too. Since I didn't see a copyright
notice anywhere on the BBS or on this material, I can only assume it
is public domain.
DISCLAIMER -- I have no affiliation with Toshiba, except as a happy
customer. Neither I nor Silicon Graphics is responsible for what
happens if ill fortune becomes you from using the information posted
here.
