*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***

	Be forewarned, SendIO also seems to eat register D7 at various
times.  I hope that this too has been fixed in release 1.2.  As a kludge,
I isolate SendIO or DoIO in their own routine with a "register int i"
declaration where i is a dummy value that gets assigned to register D7.
This protects register D7 from parent routines.
