Well, it *is* Unix-related. Should COFF be restricted beyond that?
The whole idea of the list was to provide a platform for topics where

Myself, I have had a look at Ken's postings. Maybe I will not copy

of (shell) scripts and options to various programs which may serve as
refresher or inspiration.
