I guess we should tell Karlyne to send her questions to the mailing list
in the future.
Who is the right source of answers to her questions?
I will arrange to be here for her pickup visit when we have the stuff
she has asked for.
Her plan of writing Slave configuration sounds quit e sane to me.

After reviewing the ABS documentation that I have, I have come up
with a list of the following questions:
1) Can I get printouts of the slave configuration files to verify
syntax and content?
2) When is ABS run, executed, used? (one time only, daily, on an
as-needed basis)
3) Can I get printouts of the main screen?
4) Can I get information about configuring the master that is similar
to the information about configuring the slave?
5) Can I see the ABS in use to get a feel for how a system
administrator would use it and how the application is used?
I can come to your office after work this week to pick up the screen
prints of the slave configuration files. I will then try to document
the procedures for configuring a slave using FrameMaker. After I
finish, I can give you the file for a technical review and to check
for compatibility with your system.
