	This is a collection of general purpose tools written at GenRad to make
our VMS systems friendlier and more versatile.  The tools are organized as
follows:


	[TOOLS]		Root of the tools directory tree

	    [.MISC]	Subdirectory containing miscellaneous tools
	    [.XCL]	Subdirectory for Extended Command Language program
	    [.CFCOMS]	Subdirectory for Current File command procedures
	    [.EDTMACRO] Subdirectory for the GenRad "standard" EDT macro



	The [TOOLS] directory also contains, for each subdirectory, a .TXT file
describing the tools in the subdirectory, and a .COM file defining the symbols
and logical names needed by the tools.


	Please refer to [TOOLS]README.TXT for more documentation.
