I haven't yet experimented with checking out from the CVS tree, so if it's
less than 1Mb, please do mail it - thank you. Will you be submitting any
changes you've made back to Paul Kinnucan?

Would it help if I tested them? (Bearing in mind I don't really have the
faintest clue about XEmacs, Lisp or JDE - and I don't know what needs

then Life seems to be a fairly outstanding issue.
Thanks again - a lot of work has gone into these tools. I look forward to
the day when they're as widespread and as easy to use as Codewright!
