Z will never emerge as a useful tool for real-world programmers and
analysts because it cannot be expressed on glass tty's.

Back to the drawing board and come up with an unambiguous syntax
expressible in the intersection of the ASCII and EBCDIC codes
and we can make some progress.

We just don't have the time to muck with Troff or Latex just to write
down our specs for the systems.  Also we'd like to see the specs online.

Is this too much to ask?
