Do you know who wrote the /sys/src/games/blit

There's a piece of code in it that I had to comment out that
I dont understand and I want to ask about it:
}
- write(3, rom, sizeof(rom));
+ /* I dont know what this was for, but it spews garbage
+ * out telnet to the vax, causing it to hang.
+ */
+ //write(3, rom, sizeof(rom));
}
I'm not sure what fd 3 is intended to be, but its the telnet socket in p9p.
aiju (not on this list) wrote games/blit. You're working from a copy a
couple revisions behind; that line was leftover debugging stuff removed
in revision 6842e7932c68 in the 9front tree, which is available at
