Thanks; Russ also hinted at that.

I was mostly fighting myself.  It's been a while since I pic'ed. I did
have a couple of suicides with tpic on some bad input. I didn't investiga=
te,
but I can try to investigate it when I have some time.

The man page for pic includes two identical examples; I'm not smart
enough to know if that is on purpose =E2=98=BA

FYI, I was building a pic that shows the steady-state process/data flow
in srvold9p.  I've attached in case somebody is interested.

The following attachment had content that we can't
prove to be harmless.  To avoid possible automatic
execution, we changed the content headers.
The original header was:

	Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=srvold9p.pic
	Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"
	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
--upas-lbxnyypqwbauaturlaocornyan
