[VAX83A.RRC.COM]
	This directory contains some command procedures.  They are 
	probably not very useful as they stand, but some of the 
	techniques used may be of interest.

[VAX83A.RRC.COM.BACKUP]
	System backup command procedure and supporting files.

[VAX83A.RRC.DTR32.DISK]
	DTR definitions for tracking disk usage.  The database is 
	updated automatically each week and the results can be plotted
	on any line printer 132 columns wide.  Includes a domain that
	maps the DISKQUOTA file.  Please read all of the warning 
	before using this!

[VAX83A.RRC.DTR32.FUNCTIONS]
	Before you can use any of these DTR things, you must update
	your DTRFND.MAR to include some new functions.  The functions
	added are: 
	   FN$STR_TRIM( string )
	   FN$OCT( integer )
	   FN$OCT_DEC( string )
	   FN$HEX_DEC( string )
	   FN$GET_SYMBOL( string )
	   FN$SET_SYMBOL( string1, string2, integer )
	UPDATE.COM will update a DTR32 V1.3 DTRFND.MAR for you.

[VAX83A.RRC.DTR32.PORTS]
	DTR definitions for tracking ports and associated information.
	The domain is used by SYLOGIN.COM to determine which print 
	queue to use for each terminal.

[VAX83A.RRC.DTR32.TICKLER]
	DTR definitions for a reminder system.  This project was never
	polished.  Some of the tricks are worth checking, e.g., 
	reading selected MAIL messages into domains.  It can show you
	all the things you have to do today, this week, ... .

[VAX83A.RRC.DTR32.USERS]
	DTR definitions for tracking who's who.  Username to full name
	and other useful conversions.  A group of procedures are 
	included that will check to see who has (not) changed their
	password since whenever.  Includes a domain that maps 
	SYSUAF.DAT.  Please read all of the warnings before using this!

[VAX83A.RRC.VT100]
	A daemon that clears unused VT100 screens.  An simple example 
	of MACRO programming, and a useful utility.  A companion 
	utility can send a time delay through a mailbox requesting that
	CLEAR hold off for a time.  This allows broadcast messages to
	remain visible as long as desired.
