I posted some simple table-like access routines for files a while
ago.  If anyone cares, I used them in a package posted to comp.
sources.misc called "jargon."  They are a simple example of how
these routines might be used.

What I'm really posting for now is to see whether anyone has tried
these routines out under anything but UNIX (say MS-DOS).  I've not
really tested them on anything but UNIX, and I just wonder whether
anyone has beaten them around enough on another platform to know
whether they work there.
