	There is something that I've always wondered about on
pdp11 unix systems. What exactly is the difference between the
-i and -n loader options? The manual page is about as clear
as the New York Skyline is even.
	I know that they both separate your program into
separate I and D space, and that -i has to be used when a program
gets too big for -n. I don't understand how or why tho.

	Thanks in advance,
