I too thought it worked fine, so I just gave it a try on a win98 machine; to my
surprice it did not work :(  I tested it on a win95 pc and there it works fine,
although very slow. Perhaps Ed can shine some light on it, the MVS books are
handled by the book.exe program.
We will investigate this further, for the moment I suggest to use the book
converter program to convert MVS books to the BK format.

PS. The rebel.bk is the converted rebel.mvs book.
