In article <745@rodan.acs.syr.edu> I wrote:
< Second part: the 'colpos' script (written for 4.3 BSD):

< (sorry, no "shar file").  Again, replace the ^A with a real control-A
< character.  The script reads the line from vi (from the script's standard
< input), strips off the ^A and the rest of the line...

I forgot the control-A (^A) in that sed expression.  It should have read:
	sed 's/^A.*//' | wc -c
