Remember that we're talking theory here, even elvis-tiny is
currently bigger than ae, and space is cramped on the rescue
disk.
That said, I was thinking along the lines of making elvis-tiny
source /etc/exrc which would contain the lines
!echo 'Type ? for help'
map ? :!cat /usr/doc/elvis-tiny/intro^M
(^M would be the literal carriage return character. Also, the
documentation file would have some blank lines at the begining to make
it stand out from text being editted).
[Aside: are programs for the rescue floppy being built with space saving
options like -m386 (for intel) and -fpack-struct?]
