I've never even heard of this.  Boy, a few days at Walden Pond, and you get
left out of everything! :-)  Anyway, anybody out there feeling generous
enough to send me a copy?

Also, as long as you're out there, anybody got any hints as to what files
to modify to customize what you want to run on login?  That is, for example,
I'd like to use an $L(x) (as in $L0, $L1, etc.) variable to let me log in
on the 3B1 and have it automatically start the phone manager, select a
particular number, dial it, etc., or maybe select a full UNIX window, got
to a particular directory, start an editor...  Doesn't sound like it'd
be too tough.

Finally, as a pie-in-the-sky request, has anybody written or have any leads on
a REAL desktop publishing package for the 3B?  Time was, a 68010 had all the
power you'd need for global weather analysis, but now I don't see much in
the way of WYSIWYG usable layout tools.

As always, thanks in advance!

- Mark
