2-8-1pre.6 compiled successfully on IRIX 5.3 :
stripped binary is  1,414 M  a/a  1,545 M  for  2-8pre.2 
(what's the UNIX command to check IRIX version? my notes don't have it).

`instant display' is a definite improvement, as are `verbose images';
`z' does indeed now interrupt a `look-up'.
my daily read of FT, WP & a couple of others went well.

defaults need to be stated for `verbose' & `KB';
GOTOBUFFER & JUMPBUFFER should default to TRUE,
COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS & QUIT_DEFAULT_YES should default to FALSE
-- to help ordinary users whose sysadmins may be careless -- ;
it is irritating to be asked to confirm  > 4 pp  on the print screen;
the `options help' file needs reformatting: i'll offer something.

there are  2  bugs & a glitch, which i will list separately.
