(Big snip -- see original post for details, if you want to
make more sophisticated changes):

Since I don't have X-Windows (on the machine under discussion), it
looks like the easiest thing to do is to run basepop11, and then
do some equivalent of "uses vedset" in my init.p file.

I think, given the context that X Windows is not installed or has
been deleted, that it will be difficult to do anything with X in
Poplog (on this machine) even if I do make the link. However, I
suppose I could make the link anyway and see what happens ... :-).
