Before I attempt to use acme as a newreader
I thought I'd load a simple txt file...but did not have great luck.
The data were truncated and I got an error message about not being able to
load the font type.
but again...it was just a simple text file, which I had no trouble
concatinating.

It looks like there is plenty here in Plan 9 to keep me busy though

thanks
