	The assembly I distributed as Alpha *Does* have a few bugs in it.

    I have fixed this, just need to send it to the moderator now.

:Matt, if you're listening, how do the channels work?  If I do a ParAddress(1),
:then write, why do I need to send a '1' as the first parameter (which is what
:parman does?)

	Each host has an address.  When you send a packet only the
    receiving host is allowed to receive it.  The sender aquires the
    line and the receiver sees it is being addressed and fullfills the
    other half of the protocol.

	I will send all this stuff to the moderator....
