Notes: Files with the same name before the extension are all related.  For
example, FRED would be a downloadable binary; FRED.SRC would be its source
code (possibly commented); FRED.DOC would be its documentation; etc.

Do not include any comments in GROBs' SRC files; they make GROB2TIF fail.

All other listable files have their authors' names somewhere in the first
few lines. If I couldn't figure out who wrote it, it'll say "By ?".

I have tried to provide documentation of some sort for every file on this
disk.  Any help would be appreciated in writing docs for those files
missing them; for example, if you know who wrote a file "by ?", please let
me know so that proper credit may be given.

Apologies to those whose files I accidentally mangled or miscredited.
Warm thanks to all authors whose works lurk herein.  Good job!

These files are not guaranteed in any way; use at your own risk.
