AB> SYSINFO

It looks like an bug in the english version of SysInfo.

This is not for me a bug of SysInfo, it's a bug of documentation I think.

I have take Magic 5 and answer is ap_gout2 = 1 and ap_gout3 = 1, and this is what Magic do
so for me the good documentation is:

ap_gout2 - 1 - shel_write(0) launches an application
           0 - shel_write(0) cancels previous shel_write()
a _gout3 - 1 - shel_write(1) launches an application immediately
           0 - shel_write(1) takes effect after
               current application exits (like TOS 1.4)
