haha.
when the PC running a serial program to the PDP 11 had more RAM than the 
PDP!

And some twat ran IIRC SED all over the source files and turned multiple 
spaces into tabs to reduce the space...and ruined all my C string 
cọnstants!!!

Happy dayz.

It was quicker to grab the files over the serial link, edit them with 
wordstar on the PC, and upload them and then compile them.

just used 'vi' for quick hacks...
