SCHMIDTM@CMR001.BITNET writes about problems running Opus 2.2 and getting
it to accept the ASSIGN.SYS file.

I found that Opus is very particular about the ASSIGN file format.
In particular, the device entries can't have anything extra around
them, and device number MUST be 2 digits long.  That is, the
following line will not work:

	1r screen.sys

But this one should be okay:

	01r screen.sys

It may have also complained when the drivers selected used upper
case (or the other way around -- I'm not at my system right now, so
most if this is just vague recollection).  Play with the device
driver entries though, it took me several hours to get it right.

One of these days I'll get around to writing that ASSIGN.SYS file
builder/maintainer I've been meaning to ... ah, well.
