Every now and then I've enjoyed giving strange but wonderful names
to programs I've worked on (one more reason to love UNIX I guess).

Last year me and someone else wrote an _small_ operating system for
the 6811 microcontroller. We called it "Bill & Ted's Most Excellent
Operating System." and it had spiffy error messages like:

"Your syntax is most non-triumphant"

and: "File not found (bogus!)"



Right now I've also got a Sun running slip to another Sun on
campus through the RPI phone system. Since the system only allows
you to connect to a limited number of machines (none of which
is running a slip-hacked Sun kernel), I wrote a relay program
to get the slip stuff through a socket to the slip machine at
the other end. The 2 programs that do this are "oopsy" and "daisy".
Imagine my surprise when reading the AU/X man page on Apple's
implementation on slip to find a program called "daisy" in
an example. Just hope I don't get sued...
