BlitzDisk is part of the TxEd Plus editor package.  However, I purchased my
package in early 1988 so they might have changed this.  The package I got
included the current ARP release, Blitz Disk, FunKeys (utility to make use of
the function keys), FF (fast fonts, which was released with version 1.3 of
Amiga DOS), and of course, TxEd, a text editor.

TxEd is one of a few indispensable programs I use, and it has the ubiquitous
arexx port.

The address I have is:
                              Microsmiths, Inc.
                              PO Box 561
                              Cambridge, MA  02140
                              (617) 354-1224

Would someone in the local area please confirm this.  Things have a way of 
changing in three years.
