February 8, 2002: asys-docs and asys-realms have been modified to allow each realm to have independent +man contents. If you're using Argo, and you're using realms, you should go to the Argo Downloads section and get an updated copy of each of these. It will also be necessary to go to the realm environment room and do 'cp #0=@a/docs/,here=@a/docs/'. (Note: this command requires that cmd-mv-cp be set W. The standard version of this program has a security hole when set W. A patched version that fixes this hole is available in the Downloads section.

January 10, 2002: Debug.muf, a coder's utility that allows one to run commands in debug mode without having to set and unset (and perhaps forget to unset) the program's D flag, is now available in the Downloads section.

January 8, 2002: Iroll.muf, yet another die-rolling program, this being one that lets you display the results for individual dice in a multi-die roll, is now available in the Downloads section.
