	I just received the latest release (2.04, I believe).  Kill does
not seem to have much use, as it doesn't seem to do much, but ps will
show you all your resident programs.  I found a resident program
taking up memory space that I forgot I had in my autoexec.bat file!
	The vi is real slick..  Full vi, as far as I can tell, with ctags,
and full ex mode.  I think it edits files bigger than memory, but can't
find the info in the beta manual.  I don't have any 600k files sitting
around, but as soon as I find one, I will try it out.

	The MKS toolkit makes working in MSDOS almost easy and on a
fast AT klone, a pleasure.
