Just a thought, but did he use Linux or BSD? If so, maybe he maintained

Exactly. I would assume it started on an MSDOS machine since I had heard
he was using Teledisk. I also suspect some just came to him that way,
since I've been able to find what I think may be the original disks, but
it isn't everything that was there. I've tried reading some of them and
it's a very mixed bag. They were stored in a garage and I've run into
some that got wet. I also found most of the hundreds of disks from G.
Herr that I sent him a LONG time ago. I have been able to recover a few
things that people have been looking for, like TurboDOS 1.43
