Here is a suggestion for a different approach to
the c.b.i.p. startup kit.

UUENCODE and UUDECODE programs are given in Kermit .BOO format
and the .BOO decode program is provided.

The .BOO decode program is a text file that can be saved as
a .COM file.  Thus one does not even need BASIC to get started.

best wishes... nate liskov   <nate@neutron.lsc.mit.edu>

*****************

Usage:

	1) Extract the .BOO decoding program MSBPCT.COM from text below
	2) Extract the QUUDCD.BOO file from the text below
	3) Extract the QUUNCD.BOO file from the text below
	2) Use MSBPCT to decode the QUUDCD program
		msbpct QUUDCD.BOO	(recreates quudcd.exe)
	2) Use MSBPCT to decode the QUUNCD program
		msbpct QUUNCD.BOO	(recreates quuncd.exe)

The Decoding Program MSBPCT

	Using a diabolically clever technique, Dan Norstedt
<DANNE@kicki.stacken.kth.se> has created the following .boo decoding
program MSBPCT.COM in printable text form.  Simply cut the following
text file out and name it MSBPCT.COM!

UUDECODE program....   This is the program QUUDCD.EXE (from
the WMSR-SIMTEL20 archives) in .BOO format.  It is a fast
UUDECODE program.
