This version of CD Charlie Heath wrote to work with his expanded prompt command. The documentation had some notes on when you would want to use it and why. There was also a prerelease of the arp stuff for testing and that has found it's way around as well. The currently released version is just that, a release version, and works tons better. There is more info on it on BIX as well as on the 'official' arp distribution disk. I will se what I can find and upload it here. --Chuck McManis uucp: {anywhere}!sun!cmcmanis BIX: cmcmanis ARPAnet: cmcmanis@sun.com These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
