I'll work on that today.

Enclosed please find the class-legend patch with BC/AD correction and
lines wrapped as you requested and all other nits corrected.

This brings you guys fully up to date with my changes except for the
Barsoom patch.  My understanding is that Paul was OK with the Barsoom
patch provided we get categorization of the nations going.  I've supplied
the data for that, and you said you'd supply the dialog code.  So I
think we're fulfilling his conditions.

I know what I want the Barsoom flag to look like.  What dimensions should
it be?  Is there a format guide for flags anywhere?
