Dating myself...but, saved a system with sadutil....and those other tools
that "edit"  root files...My thanks to Eric & Lou if you are still
listening. MPE is one of the most proven bedrock systems ever. HP has
decided to go another direction.  Unhappy am I, but we should just get over
it. I am waiting for IBM to tank MVS.  Of course, they needed the 1000s to
speak with us back then.....
