Fixing the bitrot in chapter 4 after moving it meant looking at the OCR'd text
on archive.org, which is not good. Here's how not good it was:

Yeah.... You see why I was so excited by the source text? :)
PIEWriter dot codes are case-insensitive, and I've deciphered that .pp is a
paragraph break. Replace those with blank lines. The NUL at EOF was escaped,
but it can be simply deleted. Did so.
