NAME
     Miles O'Neal - anti-imbecile program

SYNOPSIS
     (VMS)
          run meo/input=chocolate/output=white-noise/verbose=no

     (unix)
          meo -v < chocolate > white-noise

     (DOS)
          don't bother - incompatible with all IBM-related stuff

     (MAC)
          <click> <click>

DESCRIPTION
     The meo program may be run for any of the following pur-
     poses:

          The overthrow of the known space-time-continuum

          To amuse, confuse and befuddle the masses

          To waste millions of net.$$$ on stuff best used as a
          soporiphic

GLOBAL VARIABLES
     FOOD may be set to Mexican or Tex-Mex instead of chocolate.
          Italian is also acceptable.  Setting this to liver will
          likely cause a core dump, which may prove difficult to
          remove from your carpet.

     DRESS
          may be set to casual or swim wear only.  Other
          values, such as formal, will likely cause unwanted
          side-effects, including rabid ranting and raving.

     GLASSES
          is hard-coded to YES to preclude massive loss of life
          on the interstate.

     STATE
          may be any or all of the following values: Texas,
          Florida, Berserk, Deluded.

     TASTE
          may be either None or None.

     VERBOSE
          should be left OFF. Newer models generally have this
          switch hard-coded, but make sure anyway.  If VERBOSE is
          ever set to ON the only possible use of the meo program
          will be as an infinite fillibuster-buster.

REQUIREMENTS
     Large quantities of chocolate in any form, several Cokes
     and/or Dr Peppers, a fast system with lots of disk, any good
     electric guitar with LOUD amp, and twisty, scenic motorcycle
     routes.  If Mexican food is used in lieu of chocolate, vast
     quantities of authentic Mexican food are preferred, but any
     decent substitute in volume will work.

PUBLIC INTERFACE CALLS
     Hey, stupid!
          usually gets his attention

     Hey, bozo!
          usually gets his attention

     Go DAWGS!
          results in instant immolation

AUTHOR
     For obvious reasons, this is not public information

BUGS
     even nonverbose mode is too verbose

     shutoff usually doesn't
