System type, version:	(RT) Version 7.2P
System name:		e40-008-8
What's wrong:

ez2ascii Segfaults.

e40-008-8% pushd /tmp
/tmp ~ /mit/athena-projects/Removable_Media 
e40-008-8% /usr/andrew/bin/ez2ascii < /mit/athena-projects/Removable_Media > /tmp/overview
Segmentation violation (core dumped)
e40-008-8% df /usr/andrew/bin
Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/sc0g             139319  135499       0   108%    /srvd
e40-008-8% /usr/andrew/bin/ez2ascii < /mit/athena-projects/Removable_Media/proposal > /tmp/overview
Segmentation violation (core dumped)
e40-008-8% 

What should have happened:

1) I really shouldn't have fed it a directory the first time, but the
second time I actually did give it "proposal" which really is an ez
document...

2) ez2ascii shouldn't segfault in any case.

3 (kim?)) there should be an ascii copy of the proposal, for those of
us who spend most of our time on dialups...
