Getting started in Zephyr PROGRAMMING

To browse through a copy of the Zephyr Programmer's manual, type at the
athena% prompt:

	attach zephyr	
	cd /mit/zephyr/doc/progman
	xdvi zephyr.dvi &

Or you can print out your own copy by typing:

	dvips zephyr.dvi | lpr -Pprinter

where "printer" is the nearest printer you wish to send it to.

WARNING: This is a *long* document, and will seriously affect your
printing quota.  Unless you anticipate doing a great deal of programming,
which is unusual, you should be content with previewing it with xdvi.

Also note the file contains several PostScript fonts, which xdvi cannot
read, so don't be alarmed when it substitutes these with fonts it can
display.  For more information about xdvi type "man xdvi" at the athena%
prompt.
