Subject:Stupid question about VED documentation files 
From:Derek Peschel 
Volume-ID:1000819.01 

This is a dumb question, but then I'm a complete Pop novice.

Looking through printed manuals (like the PostScript version of the primer)
I see references to VED commands like this: "teach teach", "teach ved", etc.
But looking through the files as they are stored on disk, and also in a VED
session, I see references like this: "teach * teach", etc.  What is the
asterisk for?

I'm using the Windows version of POP, if that helps.  (I guessed that the
asterisk might be some kind of formatting code, but of course the Windows
version has almost no fancy display capabilities.)

Thanks,

-- Derek
