	Can someone tell me where to find the latest & greatest version of
"Notes" by Ray Essick et al?  The latest I can find is V1.7.0 on cs.uiuc.edu.
However, it is dated October 20, 1985.

	This version offers significant improvements over our current
version, but it is TOTALLY sloppy about terminal I/O.  Depending on
what terminal type you are using, diagnostic messages from Notes appear
all over the place, forcing you to do numerous screen refreshes (^L).
Our old version handled this beautifully, with all diagnostic messages
appearing (highlighted) directly the notes prompt.  I tried fixing this
myself, but screen positions are hard-coded throughout the source code,
making this difficult to do.

	Thanks!  Please answer by E-Mail, since I do not read this
group regularly.
