}HyperUnix provides mail and other unix services from HyperCard using
}either a serial interface or an AUFS interface (the 'automac' daemons).

Could you or someone else possibly explain what exactly this does?  What is
an AUFS interface?  If I have a Mac II running A/UX connected to other Macs
via Ethernet, would HyperUnix do anything interesting for me?  Don't mean to
sound stupid, but I hate wasting time downloading stuff I don't need, and I
just thought I'd check first...
