Hi all,


I just built and installed Elm 2.4 PL20 on a DECsystem 5900 running
Ultrix 4.3.  I have installed ispell 3.0.9.  I have noticed two
anomalies;

1. after composing a message and using i) (ispell), I noticed I must
hit return after the next command.  It should not require a return
since that is the normal interface mechanism.

2. the elm.ps.tar.Z contains the PostScript version of the documentation
and man pages.  This is great!  Unfortunately, all of the files contain
a ^D (ascii 04) at the end of each file.  Our DEC PrintServer 20 can
not handle ^D.  I had to delete  the line from each file.  If the
^D does not serve a useful purpose, then please remove it.

Thanks,
Richard Jackson
