It's a bad idea to post fontified files to this newsgroup!  NNTP (or the
mailing-list/newsgroup gateway, or something) seems to strip control
characters out of all messages.  So instead of getting a file with
embedded codes like <006>1 and <006>* we just get 1 and *.

This might not be the case if you read this group as a mailing list, but
if you read it as a newsgroup, code with fonts is horribly corrupted.
