Last I heard, there were other entertaining subtle bugs in notesfiles, and at least one of the authors had been heard to say, in public, that it badly needed a total rewrite. I tend to agree that the concept of notesfiles is a better way to go. I'm concerned that some of the 2.10.n efforts may be reinventing the wheel in a bass-ackwards way, with the result eventually looking like a botched notesfiles lookalike. -- Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!henry
