   I was playing with HoneyDanBer UUCP and discovered uux -g grade will
   not generate a C. with the given grade. Upon reading the source code,
   I found that HDB uucp will only generate a X. filename with the given grade,
   and only for local X.'s.  The C. and D. created all got the same grade, C for
   the C.'s and D for the D.'s. 

   The At&T man pages states that the -g option will "cause the job
   to be trasnsmitted earlier during a particular conversation". But
   since all C. and D.'s are created with an equal grade, the -g option
   is render useless. 

   Shouldn't the C. and D. also be created with the given grade ?
