     Ahhh... the good old days.  When I thought BASIC could do *anything*
(actually right now I'm working on a GIF viewer for the 128 since no one
seems to have one around....  :(   )
     I got UNIX 128 compiled, finally, and the 'fsck' routine doesn't
work (I do my own directory maintenence since the Commodore doesn't
support multiple heirarchical directories.)  So, as of last night 
I have UNIX minus directories (about 2,000 lines of code so far.)
If you want, I'll mail you the source.
