This is an unofficial Frequently Asked Questions (with answers) list
about Elm. Syd Weinstein kindly checked this, but he is not responsible
for the errors in the answers, which are my fault, unless otherwise
specified. I do NOT claim to be a member of the Elm Development Group.

* WARNING: *
The old ftp site:
- ftp://ghost.dsi.unimi.it/pub/FAQs/Elm
(ghost.dsi.unimi.it is 149.132.1.2)
is now carrying old version of the FAQ, and is no more supported.
I strongly discourage getting the FAQ or other related stuff from
that site.
* END WARNING *
I *found* the ftp site. Many thanks to Syd, as usual. I plan
the ftp site to be operative within a week or so.
A file containing instructions on how to buid and install Elm un-
der Next is on the same sites in .../Next.Z.
A context diff file containing the differences between this FAQ
and the previous release is posted on comp.mail.elm and is avail-
able from the same sites in the file Elm/diffs.Z.
This FAQ is NOT reposted if modified, until the next issue date.
I will modify the ftp file only. I suggest using ftp to get the
latest version of this document.
This FAQ refers to latest patchlevel I put my hands on. Ques-
tions about a specific patchlevel are kept if of common interest.
Actually, all relevant questions concerning PL 21 are kept in
this file, as many users still run PL 21.
This FAQ consists of six parts:
