A special thanks to those who keep the net in working order.
.. and a thanks to the author for responding so promptly. His response affirms
the validity of the copyright for the MIN2DOS collection.

I've made this followup posting (with Steve's permission) to satisfy the
curious, and to forward Steve's email address to the net.

Steve and I will be working to get all 'the kinks' out from the collection.

Please keep your eyes on the cyber-channel for an updated posting of MIN2DOS
from the author.
