For those of you that use Sam on Windows 95/NT:
There is a new version which can be installed by running
the self extracting executable available thru netlib.

Go to
	http://netlib.bell-labs.com/netlib/research
and select the file sam.exe, or more directly,
	http://netlib.bell-labs.com/netlib/research/sam.exe

Major changes from the previous release include:
*) The commands that run external programs now work, i.e. '<', '>', '|', '!'.
   Included with the distribution are several command line programs
   that are useful with sam, such as: pwd, echo, fmt, and sort.
*) There is a 'B' command that enables sam to receive file open requests
   from other programs.

Let me know any problems you have.
