I sent this out once before, but it seems to have been lost.  Now I am
sending it out to the whole mailing list.

I have an ARChive file containing the differences between my version of the
Rainbow BIOS and DEC's version.  Do you want it?  How can it be distributed?
It is about 75 K bytes in ARCHIVE format, with another 35K for the disk
caching programs.

I also have written a program to do a subset of the GKS graphics standard
for a PIXY-3 plotter from the Rainbow.  I was intending to put in the code
to do Rainbow graphics, but have not yet done so.  It is all written in C.
I have the DEC graphics library for the Rainbow, but have not integrated it
into my graphics system.  Do you want these too?  This is about 225K bytes,
including the Hershey font data that was once posted to the net.

Suggestions are welcome, but I seem to have trouble answering electronic
mail.  Most times I get replies returned with unknown addresses.
