   Your documentation is as up to date as all of us. :)   
      
    AT> The instructions call for a file called commands.bbb, but my installation   
    AT> does not have a file by that name.   
      
    AT> Do I need to create one? Or get one from somewhere? Or is commands.bbb   
    AT> obsolete?   
      
   Yes, go ahead and create that file and it will be used. Here is an old   
   commands.bbb I was using at one time. I was playing with this so keep that in   
   mind.
