And it uses normal text files and works on a II/II+.  I have the DOS 
Toolkit version of the manual. It seems to be fairly close but is 
missing the BugByter manual.  If no one can find the manual on line, I 
could scan it some day - it's only about 70 pages.  Or, I could scan the 
reference card tomorrow; along with the built-in help it should answer 
most questions.
