Is this, in fact true?  If so, I can repost.  I would rather not uuencode
if I don't have to since that will increase the volume by tens of kilobytes.
What does BITNET actual do?  If it just mungs tabs or something simple, I
can replace all the tabs with ! or ? or some other character that is not
otherwise used.

To help you figure out what BITNET does, here is a listing of my keyboard,
row for row:

lower-case:
1234567890-=
qwertyuiop[]
asdfghjkl;'`
\zxcvbnm,./

upper-case
!@#$%^&*()_+
QWERTYUIOP{}
ASDFGHJKL:"~
|ZXCVBNM<>?

3 tabs followed by an x
			x
