Er, we are talking about _free_ software, aren't we?  ;-)

I suppose I'll just have to read the fine source code.  It would be nice
to be able to see what this new "init" offers that the "traditional one"
(whatever that means) doesn't.  It looks like the syntax of the
configuration file(s) is easier, but at the cost of the config being
fragmented into many files.  It looks like some of the config filenames
are reserved for special purposes.

What I actually want to do is to get more virtual terminals running.  I
suppose I can just follow the pattern of the existing ones.  But it would
be nice not to have to guess.

I look forward indeed to the appearance of the documentation.

Thanks again,
