In the meantime there appeared a link to a "no ar" version of
learn.tar.gz on bwk's home page. (learn.no_ar.tar.gz)

I'd like to make a FreeBSD port from it. Do you think it is appropiate
to do so? I did not find any copyright statement, is it encumbered?

During the "editor" lessons, learn caught SIGTTIN. So I got rid of
the controlling terminal by daemonizing it (kind of).
