                      4: Elvis runs under BSD UNIX, AT&T SysV UNIX, SCO Xenix, Minix, MS-DOS (Turbo-C
                      5: or MSC 5.1), Atari TOS, OS9/68000, and Coherent.  Ports to other operating
                      6: systems are in progress; contact me before you start porting it to some other
                      7: OS, because somebody else may have already done it for you.

                     13: you may need to create this directory before you can extract the documentation.
                     14: The "doc/*.man" files are UNIX-style man pages; they are meant to be processed
                     15: by "nroff -man".  The "doc/*.doc" files are all chapters of the manual.  They
