I think so. It would be nice to have all dd(1) excepting the "file typing"
changes backported to 3.3-STABLE (or is it -RELEASE?) All I'd like is
Bruce's okay on it, as well as Jordan's.

Hmm, I noticed that I don't use two spaces after the end of sentences as
many others do and I always _thought_ I did. I guess it's mainly LyX/TeX's
fault :)
