Then its very likely that MW c.prep will also dirty its breeches badly 
enough to take the machine down.

At the time I did that, I sweat pseudo blood to get it that big.  Do you 
have the src for that? I may be able to find it on my machine someplace if 
you would like to try.  Yes, I had worked on it some more since the 1993 
c.prep19, but was never happy that I was actually making an improvement. 

I have a /dd/maxtor/c.src/cpreps/cp22 directory that would be my last pass 
at it in 1995.  If you'd like I can ar or lha it and put it up on my web 
page.  Maybe someone else can pick up this ball and carry it.  Just name 
your compression poison preferences.
