The problem is not with UUCP but with OS9.  OS9 does not permit the use of a
hyphen in a file name.

On the Coco, I'm using the new UUCP Mark Griffith is finishing up. However, to
cope with the hyphen problem, I've had to set-up alias files to provide
alternate names.

Mark is in the process of porting his version of UUCP to OSK.  As soon as he
releases some source code to me, I'll modify it for aliase names.
