1. FREE
  .COM file to display the amount of free space on a mounted
  disk volume.  From the Radio Astronomy/VLBI hackers.  Gee I
  wish you could pass more than eight parameters to a .COM file!
2. INUSE
   An INUSE is some sort of display to leave on your terminal
   when you leave, but not for long enough to justify logging
   out.  INUSE.COM produces the "Caltech Standard In Use"
   display on a VT100+AVO or equivalent.  KZLINUSE.COM was
   written by a Caltech student whose name has since been
   forgotten... it's a little unusual in that it cycles
   through six frames.  Works on any 24x80 CRT; best viewed
   from a distance.  "Everyone writes an INUSE; it's easy to do
   and makes you feel important."  Apologies to Rob Pike (now at
   AT&T Bell Laboratories).
3. MAILCHECK
   If I had to pick one "most useful .COM file" this would have
   to be it.  Given a list of usernames (default is your own) it
   displays how many unread MAIL messages there are for each.
   Requires read access to SYS$SYSTEM:SYSUAF.DAT.
4. RMS Cheat Sheets
   These have literally saved hours of my time.  A must for the
   true RMS hacker.
5. SCRFT
   I promised this at the last (Las Vegas) Symposium.  Intended
   for publication in Pageswapper.  Read the .DOC file.
6. USERS
   VMS version of the program of the same name written by
   yours truly a few years back for the DECsystem-20, and
   incorporating some improvements suggested by Ian Macky
   (now with the Network Information Center at SRI
   International).  Read the .DOC file.
