I have finally update my github repository.  I renamed the old, mangle 
repository
to kafs-client-archived.  The current kafs-client repository contains my 
latest
work.

In addition to Spencer's change set I have made some minor tweaks to 
preload.
I have added some messaging to make it more useful as a debugging tool.  
I
also made the change from -v to -d in aklog-kafs, but I have not 
followed all
of Jeff's recommendations yet.  The current version github has been 
uploaded
to Debian for inclusion in bookwork.

I am about to start up man page updates.  Since I am more familiar with 
POD I
will use it for anything I write.  I can covert to markdown if that is 
preferred
at some point.

Yeah, right.  I had an astronomy professor onece start a lecture with 
the
statement "In astronomy 1 = 1000".  That's about the level of my 
planning
accuracy.
