} The file lspost.dev does not exist in /mit/consult/lib/scribe/database.
1) Hey, yer right!
<189>beethoven:/mit/consult/lib/scribe/database
% ls
RCS helvetica.accents.PS mathad.info.mss
allfonts.info.PS lptlne.dev mathad.info.~1~
fontfamily.info.PS mathad.info mathad.lib
fullpo.fon mathad.info.PS timesroman.accents.PS
I'll cc this to bugs about this, just so they can tell me it's not
their responsibility :-( and also to the doc staff, so that they can
tell me where the file lives these days. Remember that we're no
longer offically fully supporting Scribe, so all sorts of things may
happen.
2) In the meanwhile, I put a copy of lspost.dev into /mit/minidev/PUBLIC
