I havn't downloaded it yet to look.

I did exchange e-mail with a contact at the company...they pointed me
to a web page...

unfortunatly the english version wasn't done and I don't Speak German

just this morning I got another e-mail...told to check the FTP Site and
given an FTP URL...
I will check it out when I get home.

If it is a.out then I think I may e-mail them and let them know that 
practically noone in the linux world uses it anymore (well ok...
I did make an a.out kernel recently...but I have an excuse..I was booting
a Sun Sparcstation through the network)

maybe ill offer them a Hamm CD ;)
