Years ago I scanned the whole Jan Jones book and OCR'ed the text and put
it into a word document. I cleaned up most of it and was planning to
add back in the drawings. I should be able to find it and give it to
anyone who is working on making a better copy. It would save them some
time.

That would be great. I have a really bad scan of this book
It may be worth asking Quanta - as they had a reprint of the book, there
must have been an original file somewhere...
Presuming (of course) that Jan Jones gives her permission for the book
to be made freely available.

One of the things I've realised I've probably never seen despite
using it so much myself is a short (one-line) description of
what the Window Manager 2 is all about.
As I understand it it is this, briefly:
New WM vectors are provided dealing with GD2 colours. In particular
there is WM.TRAP

I believe a Gold card is the minimum you require to run SMSQ/E on Aurora
