A couple of comments and questions about Gulam.

1)  There is a command called 'sx' that is documented by referring you to
a command called 'rx', but rx doesn't exist.  Can someone tell me what these
commands do?

2)  From ue (emacs) when you type a ^K is 'temporarily' pops you into Gulam
and your editing buffers are not FREED.  The manual says to try this but
doesn't say how to return to emacs.  So far I only tried running emacs
then ^x^b to the buffer i was editing.  Is there a more direct way to return
to your editing after doing a ^z  (oops that was supposed to be a ^z not a
^k up there, sorry).

3)  Finally, in ue, if you do several delete-backward-words (M-BS) then do
a yank (^Y) your deletes will be restored in reverse order.  SO the line,
Delete this line backwards.
becomes
backwards. line this Delete
when you restore.

*^*^*^*^*^*

How does one get to atari-sources to find out what is there and to ultimately
upload or download (correct terminology?) something to/from them or is it
only a part of netnews.

thanks,
