DevTool 

          DEVTOOL Is an interface between the VAX operating system and the
     user. DevTool enables user-assigned default parameters for specific
     system commands. The user may also define a default filename
     specification for the entire set of DevTool commands. DevTool is
     TRANSPARENT to the user. 


          DEVTOOL was originally written in DCL at Milton Bradley Co.  This
     much improved BASIC/DCL version was written at Amherst Associates in
     order to improve speed, versatility, maintainability, and general 
     operation.  DEVTOOL has been extensivly tested and used, in all its
     incarnations, for several years now so it should be "Bug Free", but
     as we all know....


          DEVTOOL has been tested under VMS V4.0 and works well.  A V4.0 
     version of DEVTOOL is included. To use DEVTOOL under V4.0 simply 
     rename NewDevV4.EXE to NewDev.EXE
     

          It is advisable, for speed reasons, that a system-wide logical be
     set up for the DevTool directory...

          $ Assign/System Sys$SysRoot:[SysUTL.DevTool] Sys$Devt:

                                     ... and that the program NewDev be
     installed on the system...

          $ run sys$system:install
          Sys$Devt:newdev.exe/open/shared/header
          /exit


          The program SHDEV.EXE provides a fast way to see what Work_Areas
     #1-#9 have been set to.  Define this in your DevSetUp.com...

          $ wh :== $Sys$Devt:ShDev

     If you envoke ShDev with a work_Area on the commandline you will be
     shown that Work_Area's definition in BOLD.
