This free Poplog is wonderful.  Thanks and congratulations to Aaron and
the others who contributed to the liberation effort.

I've noticed one feature which I think is unintended.  In the sun
solaris system that we downloaded, the standalone xved ignores
command line arguments (other than -help).  That is, if I give a
command

xved junk.p
or
xved -do 'teach xved'

I just get a window displaying the empty file "temp.p", in the same way
as if I had given the bare command

xved

The standalone plain ved command treats the command line arguments as
the documentation says it should.

I suspect the answer may lie in the procedure xved_standalone_setup
in the file LIB XVED_STANDALONE_SETUP.
