Never mind disk addresses. We used to put whole channel programs into

e.g., /386/bin, /386/lib, /386/include, /rc/bin, /rc/lib, but,
/usr/glenda/bin/386, /usr/glenda/bin/mips, /usr/glenda/bin/rc.

the man page makes clear (i think) that there are two types of
snapshots, archival and not. i think the default behavior is
explained, too (see the description of snaptime).

When you connect to the SSH server, if it is willing to
accept version 1 or 2 it says 1.99 as its version.
If it is only willing to accept version 2, it says 2.
