In section 3.3 "User dotfile support for RIOS" your forgot a few
files:

	/usr/athena/dash	remember this is the logout button

	/usr/athena/msgchk	in both /usr/athena/lib/init/{login, xsession}

	/usr/athena/olc		in both /usr/athena/lib/init/{login, xsession}

There are also a few files in /usr/athena/lib/init/cshrc that some
user have also copied into thier homedir.  These can probably be
ignored safely, but I'll mention them

	/usr/athena/end_session 
				This is a compatability feature in the
				current release.

	/usr/prototype_user/README.mail
				This is alias for 'Mail' and 'mail'

One suggestion I have for the Man Pages is to adopt the convention of
the having the banner for Athena man pages be of the from:

PROGRAM(ATHENA1)      UNIX Programmer's Manual       PROGRAM(ATHENA1)

I converted all the man pages in the consult locker to this convention
so that when you looked at a man page it was immediately obvious where
the man page came form.

Also, there is one currently existing directory we haven't mentioned
yet, /usr/sipb.  My vote is that we nuke it, keeping the appropriate
compatability link on the VAX and RT.
