DS> big for its britches...

Strange; RAINBOW.OBJ is on the Clipper PLINK and UTILITIES diskette, and
it's listed in the READ_ME.1ST file on System Disk 1 and described as "Driver
module for the DEC Rainbow".  Do you suppose nobody reads the stuff they put
out at Nantucket?

DS> Have you had good luck with RAINBOW.OBJ? I have had mixed luck...

The programs I have written all run OK on the Rainbow.  Main drawback is
that you have to use the CP/M-86 type cursor control (CTRL-X, etc).
