Panther resource

[Erik Ness]

Hey all,

I'm nowhere near Panther -- still taking baby steps with Jaguar -- 
but the level of chaos seems awful. Ran across this resource, and 
thought I would share. The author of this book wrote a great manual 
for Nisus; from everything I've read so far, this $5 may be 
exceptionally well spent. I HAVEN'T USED IT. But the lineage is 
good....

Cheers,

Erik
