DJ Delorie has branded the online documentation as 'newer', that is
why I have used the terms OLD and NEW for the various docs found
on delorie.com web pages and FTP sites. But I have to admit I could
or should have used the terms CURRENT and FUTURE to better
reflect the actual situation.

That is what has surprised me initially when using the NEW/FUTURE
HTML doc. But all my questions related to this issue have been
answered. Thanks.
