I am told that the version of CED which I had was not really 1.50. Not
being familiar with the features of 1.50 I accepted it as it was given
to me, checking only that (a) it worked, (b) it wasn't a trojan horse,
and (c) it wasn't obviously a commercial product.

For anyone who happened to be happy with what they got, it's still a
viable version of CED, just not 1.50 (I've been told it's 1.0C, 1.0D,
and something else). Not being a CED user I am not going to have any
more to do with it.

I have withdrawn it from the *IX BBS, along with microemacs and any
other stuff available to non-users. Of 70 people who loaded the
software, one left a thankyou message, 3 sent mail saying that it wasn't
1.50, and 5 left messages complaining that I don't support 2400 baud.
I will respond privately to the two messages from people who claim I
sabatoged their systems.

Sorry if this wasn't what I thought it was.
