Being naturally curious, I have come across a fascinating program called "WP".
It is rather nifty, and it actually works. What is almost more interesting is
the first two screens of the help file that comes with it. A classic DEC
disclaimer that you really should read; Something tells me this shouldn't have
been distributed at all!

I'll let you find out what it does yourself. To see what I'm talking about, type

        $ help/library=wp

I'm sure those who are curious about what bits of the operating system do what
will be fascinated by this program, as I was...but do read the help before
running it. Caveat Executor.
