Hi Astro, how is the IIGS project going?  You kind of went
silent for a while and I just wanted to see how your IIGS
project was going.

This has been a fun thread and one more relevant than
some of the stuff that has been going on in this newsgroup
for a long time.  I would like to continue it if possible.  Besides,
after this thread comes to a successful conclusion, the entire
thread could be stored in the FAQs and help other new
users.  This thread has by far been the most comprehensive
"getting the IIGS going" how-to guide ever seen in this NG
(or in any FAQs for that matter).
