	The previous article assumed your terminal has local
	programmability. I have since received several comments from
	those of you without such. If yours doesn't, try the following:

	:map @ ma'bddmb'a	(in vi)
	:map # p-Jr&+		(the @ and # are not unique, they just
				 sit next to each other on my terminal)

	Move to the first line of the second text block and type 'mb',
	then move to the first line of the first text block and type
	'@#' until all the lines are joined. (See first article for
	a diagram).
