ALL I did was put 1) a program source written in Japan, 2) a patch written in the US to add Amiga readable file writing compatability, and 3) a copy of the existing documentation which I retrofitted from flat ASCII back to nroff input format and merged in the Amiga option instructions, and cleaned up the English a bit, all together in a shar, and post it to alt.sources because so many people asked me for it, and because the original source and the patch had never been posted together before. I've never even _read_ the source code, much less did I _write_ it! I didn't even know someone had put my shar up on ab20, though I'm glad they did so it's all in one spot now. Credit where credit is due for creative work, please, to the original authors, and none to me. Lord. Next I'll be the author of Genesis because I quote from it once in a while. Kent, the man from xanth.
