    Hello again, net, I'm back after an absence.  I'm president of a Atari ST
users' group (ASTUTE) in Vancouver, BC, Canada, and I would like to know if
anybody a reasonable number of hops away might have the following:

ash -     the PD shell, sounds great.  ANYTHING with history!!
Uniterm - I think I have 1.7a nearby, though I only have 1.6g myself.  A more
          recent version in western Canada?
Gemboot - Never saw this come by, but sounds crucial.  We seem to have had
          enough success here to be able to feel safe about this now.

    I have a lot of good stuff, but most of it is on my Atari.  I am quite
willing to swap disks with people, and can send things on the net in a pinch.

    I'm also wondering if there is a Unix - 'vi' like editor other than VIX.
I've tried VIX, and the gaps are a problem, since I alternate between the real
thing and a good Aztec version on a PC AT.  If there isn't anything out there,
I might just have to write or adapt one (bold, stupid words, I know).

    Other comments - I think Uniterm is great the way I've seen it, and would
not hack it into pieces.  'ash' should redirect stderr to the screen, but will
hopefully also provide a way to redirect it with stdout if not to a different
file entirely.  And 'ksh' style editing sounds wonderful.  About ZMDM by
Jwahar Bammi @ CRWU : great work, I was about to start on this in the absence
of a way to batch files together and get them to my Atari.  I recommend it to
anyone unreservedly; it is a little bigger than XMDM, but worth it.
