Thank you to the bzillions of people who referred me to
STARTGEM.PRG.  For those who want it but missed
it's most recent posting, it's also available on score.stanford.edu.

I wound up putting STARTGEM.PRG in A:\AUTO\
and UNITERM.* in A:\, with the program name string in STARTGEM.PRG
changed to "A:\UNITERM.PRG".

P.S. I can do without the "jeez, didn't you get it the *last* time
it came by?" comments...it all depends on when someone started
reading the newsgroup, doesn't it.  If your site keeps every
netnoise message ever sent, good for you, but poor public schools
like Berkeley don't have that much disk space.

Perhaps a biweekly (monthly?) message should be posted which
describes the "usual" issues:
	FOLDRXXX.PRG, STARTGEM.PRG, COMMAND.PRG (to start GULAM) ...
	what ftp/LISTSERV servers are available and how to use them
	uud, uue, arc, shar ...
	the time since the last comp.{binaries, sources}.atari.st
		posting :-)
	etc.
Comments?  Volunteers?
