I've tried a couple of times to reply to you by mail, but as usual, our
mailer keeps screwing me up... [someday I'll find the magic word, I know].
(Actually I'm not sure it didn't get through the second time: the message
I got back from the daemon was really weird.  I'll assume it didn't though.)

What I said basically was -- "Sorry you're having problems".  I don't know
of any interaction with anything else that could cause trouble.  If there's
no close gadget it's just possible you have Xicon 1.00 (from the early Fish
disk), which had no close gadget; in that case ctrl-C would get you out.

If you can't get a working version of Xicon 2 -- AND we can find a mail
path that works -- I can send you a uuencoded ARC file of most of the
package.  It's also available by anonymous ftp from ucbvax here, if
you can reach it.  [Can anyone tell me how to pass that on to Purdue?
I'll do so if possible.]
