Talk & Line: Sample of format for SAAA 5.0

   OK, here's the latest formatting that may be applied to the SAAA 5.0:

   As you can see, I've added a few header lines, including a keywords 
line, because Ric Hotchkiss emailed "It might also be useful (although more 
work) to include some kind of broad subject cross-reference info ..."

   Info headers, like the above, can be put together into an index.  When
all the archives previous to this one are redone, a master index can be
made.

   Also, I'm going to make the archive so you can glance the subject 
lines in a mail reader like elm.  I guess pine should work too.  This 
idea came to us from Markus Gyger, who emailed "change 'Item:' into 
'Subject:' so we have an ordinary email folder and could access the items 
with 'elm -f file' or similar ..."

   Keep those ideas comin' in.
