All righty. I'll send some doc on this stuff. Somebody else did the
initial buffer interface, but it seems that it has fallen to me now :-)

Please give me a little while to get to this, though. I'm in and out of
town for the next four weeks. <SubtleAnnouncement> I'm in the process of
moving into a new house in Palo Alto, CA, and I'm travelling back and
forth until Anni and I move for real in September. </SubtleAnnouncement>

I should be able to get to this by the weekend, or possibly in a couple
weeks.

Cheers,

I was not aware that you were not the origin of this work; feel free
to pass it to the right person.

Cool!

That's good enough for me. I expect it may be a couple of months or
more before I try and get another release out with various fixes and
additions. There's not a huge need to update the released doc set,
other than a few embarassing editorial...er, "oversights" (!).

I think I did, but I gladly bequeath it to you. (Hmm, that's the first time I
typed "bequeath", I think).
