What you might want to do it to get the public-domain versions of cut and paste from the unix-sources archives. Such versions are available in Volume 8 of the archives. The address is unix-sources@smoke.brl.mil, newsgroup is comp.sources.unix, moderator is Rich Salz (rsalz@uunet.uu.net). I would suggest contacting unix-sources-request@smoke.brl.mil or rsalz@uunet.uu.net to find out the procedure for getting said programs. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ Michael J.
