Again it wasn't that way by default, straight DOS, and required extra
software to enable that functionality.  It seems to me that emulation of
DOS offers very little functionality and in fact adds drag to a Linux
system.  If multinodal Maximus is the goal then it seems to me that one
should just use dos/dv and let dv handle the networking aspect for DOS and
Maximus.  Why cripple a Linux system just for a few simple text games?

Right.  I've noticed.  I have seen a few duped msgid's in the past from you.  ;-)

 RJT> I need to start looking at some of this stuff soon.

I have off and on.  I have a few scripts, bash and perl, to compare and
contrast some formatting schemes.  perl won out on that particular issue
and now am using microperl to handle that end.  I don't require a full
bloated perl just for that.

Life is good,
Maurice
