Well, on a RSTS/E system back home in Jericho, Long Island (a PDP-11/70), saying to TECO "make love" would cause it to respond "Not war?" and then give you the asterisk. Hmm... I, too, would like to know who wrote it. It seems like the kind of thing a crazed hacker would write--TECO is more a language than an editor! ___________________________________________________________________________ UUCP: flitmans@unioncs.UUCP "Willy liked to drink Stephen Flitman but now he'll drink no more The Man in the High Tower 'cause what he thought was H2O Who likes Raspberry Berets was H2SO4!" and Banana Sundaes
