Amazingly, I got `leroy` to build on a modern(ish)
system. Mary Ann,
are you in Renton right now?

Thanks, Henry, you found my mistake.
I've corrected the links to the Sept 1983 maps and verified that
the date in the map is September. Would you please rerun that one? :)
The extra icons in the legend are nice!
Yes, I agree doing this on a plotter would be better. I recall
Brian Reid doing just that as a product demo of an HP plotter at
one Usenix. I had such a poster, I was going to bring it this week
but I can't find it. Now I know where he got his data...
Thanks,
Mary Ann

Any chance you could do the same for this file?
It
looks smaller, but
it's a couple weeks newer so it's
possible it's somehow
better.
While searching for the 2nd article for the May, I found
the following

The dates of these articles are September 21, 1983.

Thanks Grant, Mary Ann found what I needed and I'm working
away. Somehow in going back over what I used to build a
working setup I managed to break my working setup, so I'm
trying to fix that to get the next set of files output.

OK, here's the second set of Usenet maps, again in raw plot and
SVG form. The only difference with the "g" maps, produced with
the gmap.leroy script, seems to be the addition of a few
graphical icons.

I'm pretty sure this is how they would have looked originally,
cluttered as they are. The nice thing about them being in a
vector format, though, is that you could blow them up to poster
size if you wanted to.
