      3) Destinations no longer have to be spelled out explicitly; "bjaspan"
      = "MESSAGE,PERSONAL,bjaspan", "foo,bar" = {"foo,bar,*","MESSAGE,foo,bar"}
      depending on a resource setting.

   What's the default?

The default is "bjaspan" -> "MESSAGE,PERSONAL,bjaspan", according to the man
page.  I think the resource name is "classInst", but that is also 
documented in the man page.

      5) All the translation tables are in the resource file, so they
      can be user specified.  I discovered that key combinations using
      Meta fail completely on an X Toolkit application.

   Mail was sent to you about this, I believe.  More of a server thing
   than a thing you can do something about, I believe.

Yes, Ralph figured out what was going on.. there is some bizarre 
command that needs to be executed to convice the RT server it wants
to believe that Alt keys are Meta keys.  I suppose I ought to make it
automatically executed when xzwrite is started.. come to think of it,
xscreensaver should to, just in case...
