I received a reply to my original posting with a link (working) to the
discussion as well as to the images.  The images can be found at:

I'm going to assume that it's ok to post this to the list.  Thank you,
though, for the link to the discussion. :)

Now if I could just find an original copy with the docs... PC/ix had
some awesome manuals (no man pages because of the space limitations).
