scored by hand:
faster 0 (aruba)
The reason I had to score by hand is that in my use of /a/k/e/kentn/do.lm
after I entered a line with just "." it did not display scored guesses
before it showed "how's it look?" I.e. something got broken during nextgrex...

I'll take a look at it. Needless to say, I haven't tried it since we
came up on the new system.

Kevin - you missed Jim's guess in #1000. It's easily proved to be the right
word:
0 <= score(--s---) <= score(faster) = 0, so score(--s---) = 0
5 = score(tiswin) = score(ti-win) + score(--s---)
= score(ti-win) + 0 = score(ti-win).
score(ti-win) = 5 implies that score(pu-zle) = 0, so
1 = score(pu-zle) + score(--z---) = 0 + score(--z---) = score(--z---).
Therefore score(tizwin) = score(ti-win) + score(--z---) = 5 + 1 = 6.
So I guess Jim's up!

I have problems seeing the last line of new / newresponse bbs items.
I suspect that might be related to why I couldn't see the scoring line
from do.lm But tizwin is indeed the correct word. Reference:
http://college.hmco.com/history/readerscomp/naind/html/na_039000_tizwin.htm
Tizwin (or tiswin) is one of two potent alcoholic beverages traditionally
brewed by the Chiricahuas and Western Apaches.

I think Kevin's problem with the scoring problem is a symtpom of his problem
displaying the last line of output. And it may be more than just the last
line.
Kevin, did you see the "Update the letter.match6 summary file? (y/n): " line
when you scored faster?
(A couple of lines, to allow space for the real last line to be displayed. :)

I did see the "update" question, which without the scoring summary, was a sure
fire "no!" :-) kentn updated do.lm anyway, and in the mean time I'm not
seeing missing last lines of bbs responses any more, due to ???
Anyway, I second the suggestion to create a new 6-letter match item, while
this one can deteriorate into drift... ;-)

Yeah...I updated do.lm, do.lm5, and do.lm7 to work on newGrex. The
problem was a difference between Sun's cat and BSD's cat. It was a
known issue from a couple years back but I never bothered to implement
the fix since grex's cat command was working as expected at time.

Has a new 6-letter match item been created? If so, I don't see it in
either iq or lang cfs. If it's not in either of those cfs, can it be
linked in? Thanks!

The weekend was stranger than I expected, so I haven't created an item
yet. Sometime today, in the iq conf.
